Every Day in Every Way We Get a Little Better
The cooler has been quite the little boon. The ability to keep milk on hand is enabling me to continue my controlled starvation (thanks, Slim Fast!) longer than I would have thought. It’s also been a rather unfortunate reminder of some basic rules of physics and chemistry.
Originally, the cooler lived in the trunk wrapped tightly in a blankie. The idea was to insulate the thing so that my ice would last as long as possible. What actually happens is that the cooler pees on everything.
Ok, not really, but I will say that if any little children out there need ideas for a science fair project involving the production of astonishing and completely uncontrollable levels of condensation they should contact me immediately. Or not. I don’t really like kids.
The cooler will live in the backseat for now, because a river can run through whatever it wants as long as it doesn’t end up in my trunk. I’m thinking about sectioning off a part of the backseat to sort of hide the thing, but there’s a Monster Garage/Pimp My Ride level that I would prefer not to hit. Sooner or later, I would electrocute myself.

I realize I’m losing my mind from time to time. I’ll try to develop a schedule and stick to it. You know, so we’ll all be on the same page.

I still have a lot of cool things I’m waiting on performy-wise. Everything sounds good so far, but I’m basing that on astonishingly tiny amounts of information.
