Two nights at Walmart
Spending two nights in a row at Walmart goes against my grain - I don't want to wear out my welcome here. I spent the day today working on some wiring in the rig here within walking distance of Home Depot where I could get parts as I needed them. By the time I was done on this muggy day I decided to just stay another night. After all, tomorrow is Saturday; the Farmer's Market will be on and I can do the laundry I meant to do today before heading back to Red Rock.

Running With the Pack
Hardly anyone out there is going to take this seriously, but TV changes you. The kicker is that if you watch it all the time, you'll never know, which under normal circumstances ought to scare you shitless...
No amount of sermonizing will make a difference here, so I'll move on. But I'm telling you, it's true. If you disconnect from the medium long enough to stop associating certain days and times with TV shows you're used to watching, you WILL be different, with values and behavior that arise from sources you never knew existed. There is no arguing with this, you simply have to experience it.
