Recent Memory Lane

When I was buying our house in 2019, I was using my gmail to communicate with the realtor. At the time I recently switched my Google name to "Moz H", so that's what showed up as my name in the email. So when we spoke on the phone he says "Hey Moz" (pronounced like it rhymes with Oz, which I suppose is how it appears). It sounded too weird so I changed my Google name back to my real name. He was a cool guy...a bit hyper, but he was good. Thanks, guy, but call me by my actual name.

Bought a Car

Well I've bought a car through Carvana. My old vehicle was having too many troubles over the last few months, but especially the last few weeks. We started a new rotation at my job where I'll be in the field for the next three months at least, but likely more in the next rotation also. So I have to do a lot more driving going to different job sites which are usually around 15-20 minutes from the office. My vehicle continued to overheat and I was adding coolant about everyday. When it overheats it shifts into a different gear and drives much slower and grinds a little bit. When I come to a stop after driving for a bit in that mode it will usually cut off. Thankfully it'll start up right away (unlike before when it was cutting off randomly and took 15-20 seconds to restart), but it could shut right back off. I had to time the lights right by quickly restarting the car and shifting to drive as traffic starts moving since it'll cut right back off if I don't start moving...

Doppelgangers

Earlier this week I was sent out to train with someone who reminded me of someone I worked with in South Carolina. His look and mannerisms were exactly the same. That got me thinking about doppelgangers. It's so weird how you can meet someone who looks exactly like someone you met somewhere else. A few people told me they know someone who looked like me when I was in the Greenville area. I even saw someone in the store who looked exactly like Mumina. It was so weird. That's why we had to move. There just can't be versions of us in the same area. We haven't seen us in Vegas yet so I think we're good now....hold on...actually someone at my job did say I looked like someone here. Nevermind...maybe we don't belong here. I joke with Mumina everytime she says 'that person looks just like my cousin' or something like that and I immediately say 'yeah a lot of black people do look alike'. She doesn't like that. It just seems like theres just a finite ...
