On the way to swim laps at Balboa pool I was congratulating myself, “Great how I didn’t even have to think to do this, just pick up my nicely organized swim bag with everything in it, and go!” As I started to get undressed in the locker room, realized I had forgotten to bring any towels.
Everyone in the locker room told me about times they had done this and just dried off with their tshirt (I did not look forward to doing this and then putting the shirt on!) Asked the lifeguard if I could borrow a towel and just bring it back washed the next week and he found me one (and took it back afterwards to put with the lifeguard’s laundry).
So kind of him! Must remember to bring cookies or something next time as a thank-you.
My swim was good; despite a nasty sciatica flare-up, I went 900 meters, the last 100 without using my legs since I was hurting but feeling stubborn and wanted to hit 1000. Then came to my senses and stopped. Listened to Prince as I swam (waterproof ipod + headphones) and then, appropriately, “Go Slow” by Fela Kuti. Impossibilityismalogicalization!
Knocked off work a bit early to grocery shop, realized maybe i should have a nice afternoon of it, so I took the bus to 18th and went to Bi-Rite (for the nicer selection of flowers than Good Life), got pastries from Tartine and took them to the park. Some kids came to dramatic trick stops at Dolores & 18th as I crossed the street and as one of them wiped out I saved his skateboard from flying out into traffic.
I picked out a sunny spot with a view in the middle of the park near the statue of Miguel Hidalgo (Libertador). Just then a young man approached me with a very open and innocent aspect wanting to ask me a question if I didn’t mind. I took an internal stance somewhere between wary, patient, and open to things myself – what was he going to ask me? Wheelchair related? Asking for money with a story behind it? Just wants directions to somewhere?
“Sure, what’s up?” “Well I’m from out of town and heard that you can just be hanging out in this park and people will sell you weed but is there a close by place I can buy some?” “Well that’s true but I haven’t seen anyone and it’s pretty random. All I’ve seen is a pizza and beer guy.” His shy, sweet friend then came up to join him and we discussed local dispensaries and ways to walk there. I ended up sending them on their way to Apothecarium, with handshakes, smiles, and Alex’s assurance that he would buy me a blunt and be right back. (Alex from L.A. and friend Roseanne never returned but I didn’t mind and hope they had a lovely afternoon.)
Later when Danny joined me in the park I told him I was somewhat honored to be the person asked where to buy weed (Smart since crips always know, right?) He side eyed my pants (which are completely ridiculous instagram ad pants made entirely of fabric patches badly sewn together) and leather jacket. I guess???!!! Maybe I just look like a NICE PERSON.
I ended up working in the evening to make up for my afternoon of swimming and park-lounging, and because it just needed to be done so why not.
Looking forward to a long weekend of organizing stuff (bookshelves and cabinets and garage) and working on my game project.
I use Firefox Mozilla. In the past few weeks, I keep getting the message, you don’t have the right browser ( on FB Gameroom) I only use Firefox and Chrome, but Firefox seems to be the default browser for FB gameroom. Today earlier I had no problem collecting my lobby bonuses from all the games I play by different developers. Zynga worked, Playtika worked, SCI did not, High5 casinos did not, a game Game of Thrones by Zynga has never worked. The message said the my browser does not have enough memory to support the game. Now I am getting a message that I am not using either browser and also the I don’t have WEGl installed, I saw a moving box. Firefox, by default has this. What in the world is going on with all these error messages? Last week or more Chrome had freezing issues I had to restart and shut down so many times I lost count. the game Caesars, by Playtika was constantly freezing and not loading. I was told by their support team it was a problem with Facebook. Getting disgusted!
I’ll look into your bug today and try to make sure there is a bug report on file, and will let you know. I may have more questions for you about the error messages.
