The good and the bad

[beowabbit]

The good: Ray is a very powerful movie. It abbreviates and simplifies a lot and begs a lot of questions, but it is a very powerful picture of Ray Charles’ musical (and business) genius, and of his descent into addiction. (Much of what it abbreviates is his recovery.)

And, continuing my dreadful luck with cars (but not nearly as bad as last time), the bad: It’s surprising what poor gas milage you get when you’re driving on a flat tire.

Oh, no! We're gonna have to assign a triple-A person to just ride around with you. :-) Hope driving on the flat didn't cause too much damage and that things are okay now.

That’s an excellent idea! I think things are OK-ish-for-the-moment again now. I have a slow leak not in the tire, but in the wheel rim; I just went a little too long without checking and refilling it.

(Maybe my big project for the weekend is to get the wheel rim replaced.)
