Your Milner Moment – October 15, 2021

It was a short week, due to the Thanksgiving holiday but I seemed to get a lot of work done at work. On the homefront? Not so much but (a) I’ve made a few appointments for next week to get a few things don and (b) it’s the weekend and in between the races in Texas, I’ll try and knock a few items off the infamous To Do list of mine. All told, though, this was a fairly decent week for me.

I have tried reaching out to people (via Facebook Messenger) a bit this week. Not with much success but I will keep trying. I will probably try more over the weekend evenings as that’s when I like talking to people. Speaking of which, I had the chance to chat with my friend Chris the other night. I was actually returning his call to wish me and my family a Happy Thanksgiving, which was very nice of him. He and I spent some time reminiscing about our days on the college radio station, which was fun.

There was a time when I would have never even thought of ordering stuff online. Now, I order stuff off Amazon and other outlets quite frequently. Some of this can probably be attributed to COVID-19 but there are also times when I’ll order something, knowing’ I’d probably not be able to purchase it otherwise. Now, a lot of that would be NASCAR stuff but I received my copy of Robby Krieger’s autobiography Set the Night on Fire this week and in checking bookstores in London, I discovered there was only one copy in one store in the entire city. Glad I ordered it online!
