I don't have five things, so here, have four

[slipjig3]

1) Thing I didn't mention from the weekend is that I had my first ride in a Tesla, which...okay, look, I reeeeally wanted to hate it, to reassure myself with the meh of it all while thumbing my upturned nose at the Muskrat, but oh. my. god, is that a great car. It runs like silk on skin. It beeps at you when the light turns green. IT HAS A FRUNK. I didn't know I needed a frunk. I kinda need a frunk.

2) One of these days we're going to get up early enough for a morning walk and it will not, in fact, be raining.

3) Video production procrastination continues apace! [pause for applause] I did manage to write some voice-over copy while stuck at the office, and took a moment today to defibrillate the channel's social media accounts. That totally counts! Taking credit! Preening now!

4) And pardon me while I bury the lede, but one nice thing about creative procrastination is all the other things you get done: you know that novel that's been in the editing process for over a decade now?
EDITING.
IS.
FUCKING.
DONE.
This deserves a full post on its own, and it's going to get one because I'm going to need whoa-yikes quantities of help, but for now it feels...good? I think? Scary? Because Jesus on a moped, now what?

Airport Valet gets a lot of Teslas. I’m used to them in that context. We haven’t yet had anyone try to check in a Cyber Truck; we might have to get Port permission to do so.

(Though, except in very specific circumstances, we can’t take Teslas that had the key replaced with a phone app. The one time I’ve seen us do that, the driver was leaving it for someone else and we had to check that that person had the same app.)

Huh, interesting, that aspect hadn't occurred to me. Do let us know if you do a Cyber Truck—I'm deathly curious if they suck as much as I suspect they do.
