SLPT: Have your 50th birthday party a day early at a Brazilian steakhouse and eat 5lb of meat! Then you can spend the day of your actual birthday focusing on more important things than eating, like tackling your burgeoning coronary artery disease!

Our local library, which is usually really great, started playing loud classical music at the entrance after hours to shoo away the unhoused. I'm glad they stopped doing that after a couple months; that's lowered my usually-high opinion of them.
Almost 10 years ago, I was hanging.. maybe paper lanterns?.. in my dining room, and there was track lighting, so I was like, cool, I can just hang one off the inside of the track.
I vaporized the little metal wire when it touched the second side. I'm glad that was the worst of it. Loud pop scared the shit out of me.
I also learned how track lighting works that day. So, you know, upside?

Well, not that shocked.
Great story, and it's great to see you over here! I love your writing style.
