5.130 fopal, meeting, passport

Tuesday 04/09/2024

So I wanted to do what would surely be at least 2 hours of work at FOPAL. If I attended the writers meeting I would have to do it between noon and 3, where it would barely fit, or after supper. So instead I headed straight down there at 8. And it did take me to 11am to get everything tidied up for the sale weekend coming up.

At 3 I had been asked by Lou to facilitate a meeting that needed to be on zoom, which I did. This was a presentation on the various options for mitigating the three dangerous points in Palo Alto where the CalTrain tracks have grade crossings with regular streets. There are various options, all expensive and argued over.

That was about the day. Little bit of guitar practice. Reading, napping. A little more excitement when I picked up my mail: a flat pack. What did I order? Open it up: my new passport! I mailed the application for it back on 5.109, just 3 weeks ago. It was supposed to take a long time, and I remember signing up for email notifications as the application was processed. No such emails ever came, but here’s the passport. Good until 2034.
