Note to self:
Next time, take the fairy lights inside for the season, when I start noticing pollen in the air, if not before. I don't want pollen getting all over them.

Errant thoughts:
I wonder how many parents with babies born on March 17 name them Patrick.

Seeing the name written there now, it looks rather neat, with "trick" in it. It could rhyme with hat trick.

Yesterday I noticed that Baby Yoda rhymes with Baking Soda.

Hey, it's Green Day.

As long as I keep that leftover baking soda in the corner of the sink, there will be nothing else needing to be cleaned with it.
As long as I keep that cap-ful of leftover mineral oil on the counter, there will be nothing else that needs to be greased.

Hey, Ginger Ale is appropriate for the day. It came in a green can.

Get the same kind and size as the old one; direct vent gas water heater, 40 Gallons.
Make sure the anode rod is easy to access, for replacement purposes.
Get the max available warranty period.
Make sure the gas controller has a COM port; I may want to get this later on:
aquanta water heater wifi controller

Get the cold water shut-off valve replaced.
If possible, have the plumber attach solid copper tubes to the heater, not flexible connectors.
Maybe ask if they can change out the plastic spigot with a metal one since they only seem to come with plastic ones nowadays.

Have them install a drip pan underneath (I can put down extra bricks to keep it off the sand) so I can install a water leak sensor.

They'll probably say they need to install an expansion tank too... will it fit in the current location?

I discovered Neocities today. Maybe I heard it referenced before, but mistakenly thought it was a Geocities archive site. But no, it's for currently live & active sites. Old-style sites without server side scripting. My website would fit right in; it may (I'm thinking at the moment) end up there soon. It supports SSL and other useful features.

.

Once in a while I come across another person's blog/webpage/profile online, listing so many things in common with me that it is almost boggling. And yet even then, there are still many differences. Which is good I suppose as otherwise... I don't know.

Since changing ISPs, Google image recaptchas are hard to convince I'm human; they keep showing one tiled image after another after another and another.

Errant thought today while clicking tiles:
I should get myself an AI tool to do this for me.

It's feeling/looking/sounding like spring.
