Ups and Downs
Feb. 19th, 2026 10:07 pmEverything seemed to take longer than it should with my car today which was a lot of my doing. I had a 9am appointment at the car place which is literally next door. I dropped the car off on the way back from bloodwork at 8:15. They asked, "are you dropping it off?" I said "yes." Not realizing that "dropping it off" meant, "leaving it here so we can tend to everything but your car for the next goodness knows how long." I walked back over at 10, they still hadn't started on it. So aggravating. I didn't get to the DMV til 11:30 and at that point the line was going to take me past the opening faceoff for the Gold Medal game (priorities!) so I left. It moved much quicker when I got back later in the afternoon.
I think the PWHL has spoiled me a bit in that it's so nice to see the best hockey players in the world more than once every four year. Still the Olympics are special and both of the Medal games went to OT today. I was really happy to see Switzerland taking bronze and had mixed feelings about the Gold Medal game. The PWHL has affected me there too because the team that I despise the most there had six players on the USA team which made it a little hard to root for them. I was happy for Hilary Knight and am glad she got to go out on top.
Choir tonight was depressing as only four people showed up. We decided to abandon the idea of singing for this weekend and if we can't get enough people to commit to sing with us for Easter, we're probably just going to stop choir altogether.
I did get to see the moon on my way home. It's a crescent moon right now, only the crescent was rotated on the bottom so it reminded me of a lunar eclipse in a way. Very beautiful.
I finished "Bugonia". Odd film with very strong performances. So that's three of the Oscar nominees that I've seen and "One Battle After Another" is still leading the pack.

hardtime100. I'm going back through the list and writing on the prompts that I haven't gotten to yet.
That's it for now. See you all tomorrow.
