Watching the movie Passengers.
Dump Run.
RIP old LG air conditioner and water cooler that kept freezing up.
But most noted is the 30 year old Pioneer stereo model RX-541 receiver, CS-K531 floorstanding speakers, and fancy particleboard cabinet to house the receiver and turntable setup.
Blasting 30 years of the latest hits from each of those years never sounded so good.
Receiver outputs no sound, internal crossover in speakers are dead and cabinet is swollen. I did manage to save the Pioneer badge (which is made of metal!) to it's new replacement for years of excellent sound.

Cooking a pot of jambalaya. C'est Si Bon!
Watching THOR:RAGNAROK and eating a bowl of jambalaya.
Brown rice, a little bit of Savoie's light roux, onions, bell peppers, green onions, garlic, Savoie's smoked sausage, Andouille sausage, and Tony's bold seasoning.I’d love to know what all is in that cause girlfriend wants some!
Google Jambalaya recipes and hold on.
Finished watching Contagion, a movie from 2011 that follows COVID-19 spread eerily. Highly recommended, in case one has not watched it yet.
Just finished watching about 4 episodes of the flash. It’s going to be raining in the am from a cold front coming through. Don’t know how you guys do it up north.
Watching episodes of the Twilight Zone.

VA temporary plates! Nice lolPicked me up a new heater on sale at Tractor Supply for the garage!
Kinda overkill for my small 2 car garage, but I do eventually plan on moving to a place with a bigger garage/shop.
Also got my work bench sorta cleared off, got my mower back in the garage, and on the charger. Fluid check for the Camry as well.
. Funny story once my dads friend got pulled over and they were searching his vehicle and they seen temporary plates he had put in the trunk since he got the permanent ones in the mail and wrote him a ticket for failure to destroy temporary license plates lol . They didn’t find anything else but they found that the next day he put them in his fireplace to make sure he didn’t get a ticket for it again.

I’m ordering parts for the beetle. Apparently mine is actually wired like a 1971 Beetle which I thought it wasn’t so I have to get the right ignition switch for it. Can’t return the other one since it’s an electrical piece but oh well after my mom cussed me out for it she agreed to let me sell it on the Volkswagen forum or eBay my choice.
That used to happen to me with Blazers. What you do is.. you take the old connector into the store with you. You'd be surprised. Usually you are taking off a one-wire connector and the parts store one is two...
IF for some reason it's not the same number of wires, look for a "1991 Firebird Trans Am" (car with a 350) and the connector should work.

Yeah bad thing is the stores don’t have a lot of parts for Beetles and you have to order most of them. And this one since it’s like a 1971 you have to replace the ignition wires with it because it all comes as one piece.
