Son’s 5th birthday party yesterday went pretty well. Pretty small because of c ovid but everybody had fun.
We’re going hiking today which I’ve been looking forward to and he seems pretty excited about.
Overall a busy but good weekend.

Good Saturday. Today is time to button up the Jeep, sadly. Cooler and wet starting tonight.
Hopefully next summer will be less 2020.

Ok, all things considered.

It's not . I’m working all weekend all the way through Tuesday morning, so basically no weekend for me

Was this car converted to Turbo II spec? I thought all FC convertibles, at least in the US, were NA.

Have fun on the hike, that sounds like a solid weekend all around. Happy birthday to him too! Hope your week ahead is equally fun.

The open air vibes are the best. I always take driving with my windows down for granted since I live in CA, but the existence of seasons elsewhere must be tough sometimes.
I saw you’ve been looking at sports cars too; how’s that been going?

I hope it stays under control then for sure. Do you get much of a reprieve after Tuesday?

You’re welcome :) mine’s ok too!

I hope the week ahead goes nicely. 2020 is almost 75% over.

I attach “all things considered” to a lot of sentences these days Have your classes improved? I saw earlier you’re under a bit of a time crunch for most of your sessions.

That’s awesome! Possibly more fun than my day but I did get to drive a turbocharged rotary car. Call it even.

You’re correct on one of your guesses but not the other. I won’t say which is which, yet. More details later in the review :)

Pretty sure I got it figured out now but I’ll refrain from spoilers.

It would be so bad if the soft top were easier to put on or take off, but it’s time-consuming and, if cold, difficult and risky (can break the plastic windows). So, I’ll put soft doors on for a while so I can easily remove those on warmer days, and once warm days are a thing of the past I’ll put my hard doors on and be done with joy and happiness entirely.
(I wouldn’t mind winter so much if we got some good snows to play in the Jeep in, but those have been few and far between the last few years.)
I’ve given up on the idea of an S2000 or Miata (do those really count as “sports” cars?). I can barely justify having two vehicles as it is, so I want both of them to be capable Jeeps.

I’m going to be sitting on my ass doing homework all day. Have fun for me and take a bundle of pictures if you can.

Yeah, I guess I do too.
Can’t say they’ve improved. It’s quite the tight rope we’re walking. It's nice to see the kids in person, but the grind is really tough.

It’ s been been better than most. Saw Black Panther AND Interstellar for the first time back to back. The former was on the big screen at the stadium (viewed from the field!) a nd the later we snuck into an unused classroom to use the projector.
Then I discovered Jon Bois's brilliant work but have had to intersperse it with actual boring stuff like schoolwork.

Yup, I get Tuesday and Wednesday off, then another 24h Thur sday, then all weekend off. My standard shifts are always Monday and Thursday, which is actually a pretty lean schedule, but I've been picking up some extras for the colleagues who are still isolated. Things get crazy every now and then, but comes a point in time when you've seen it all and then some and not much still phases you hahaha
