Feeling Blue for Sunday Stills

For Sunday Stills: Blue.

Sleeping Over At the Airport

 

It is 7:20 AM and I’ve been in the Guadalajara Airport since 2 AM. My delayed flight leaves at 9 and I’ll spend another 7 hours cooling my heels in Dallas. All in all it will be 20 hours in airports and in the air and I will arrive 8 hours late and a day late at my destination since I’ll arrive too late at night for my sister to drive the hour and a half to the airport to collect me, and so I will need to spend a night in a hotel. Oh the glories of modern travel. Since my pickup was at 1 AM for the hour trip to the airport , I didn’t go to sleep at all last night and I have had one hour’s sleep on a couch in the VIP lounge which they gave me a pass to. Better than the hundreds of people sleeping on the floor in the ticketing area. Wonder what is up? Heavy rain all the way from San Juan to Guadalajara, so perhaps that has grounded planes.

Drenched! July Rains….for RDP

 

These were definitely not taken this year as the second month into what should be the rainy season, we’ve only had one rain. Looks promising now, though. If it rains, I’ll add a current photo.

Does anyone else find this sorta scary? Not the first part (Click on the link just above) but the part about AI Barbie? Are we heading toward a world where AI becomes our best friend?

The Answer

if you don’t know what the question was, go HERE before reading this post.

And the answer is Here:

A few months ago I had a mouse problem and set traps in several hidden spots I thought they’d be attracted to.  I never did catch the mouse, but guess what critter I did catch?

The jam I’d smeared on the  little bait bar was completely gone, by the way. Obviously, the guilty rodent was better than I am at avoiding entrapment. True story!!!!
