COVID Levels (as of 20. Feb.) : down to 600 Bobcat-Robots. Yay, progress.

Meantime, went out this morning to discover that my car battery was flat. AGAIN.

ETA: I eventually dealt with the battery problem by what might be called the [Former Roommate M] route: I went out and bought a giant battery/jumpstarter/tire pump, for about a hundred bucks that I could only sort of afford.

grrr bagbiting mechanics are booked up til WEDNESDAY, so the car is out of commission til then.

So no Census work for me til then either... and since Wednesday is, err, "problematic"...that really means Thursday.

(No, before you ask I can't take it to another mechanic. I mean, technically I could, but if--as may be the case--the problem is that the oxygen sensor they replaced last time is acting up, I want a free replacement.)

...I guess I can get some job applications done?

Later: Related to that last: Someone please explain to me why "Because I want you to pay me," isn't an adequate response to the question "Why do you want to work at [Name of company]?".

Right, I never finished writing up last weekend's adventures.

PS Shout-out to Squig. and Partner for fixing my smartphone! OK, really it was less "fixing", more "convincing me that the problem might really be lint in the charge port", but they still saved me like $50.
