Yesterday I went to the county tag office to register my car. It turns out my title has the wrong odometer mileage recorded. They gave me an exception form that the seller and I have to complete. I called the dealership that sold me the car and had a conversation with the person in the finance department that went something like this.
“The title you gave me with the rest of the paperwork has the wrong mileage recorded.”
“I didn’t give you a title.”
“I’m looking right at it.”
“I never give anyone titles.”
“Regardless of how I got it, I have it, and the mileage is wrong. Can we focus on the solution?”
“Did you get a package in the mail from us with paperwork?”
“Yes.”
“That’s where you got the title. I never give titles to anyone.”
“Okay. Now that we’ve cleared that up, let’s talk about how we fix it.”
It’s always fun to get a call at 10 AM to put together a presentation for a meeting with executive management at 1:30 PM. Fortunately when you have your act together you can have it done by 11, review it at 1, and make a few changes with time to spare.
Record heat around the country, but it’s been normal here. Temperatures in the 90s and thunderstorms off and on for the past couple of days. What you’d expect for a city on the equator.
There’s an interesting thread on Twitter called A Brief History of Nobody Wants to Work Anymore. In summary, the thread contains newspaper article clippings from 1894 to 2022 stating that no one wants to work anymore. The more things change and all that.
I was tired all day. I took a nap at 6 PM, woke up, had dinner, and went back to bed. I don’t know if my aching knee is wearing me out or if it’s something else, but it felt good to get some sleep.
The swelling in my knee continues to decrease. I have close to full range of motion again, but standing up is painful, and I still take the stairs one at a time.
