I don't understand the metric system. It was never taught in the schools when I was young or if it was it wasn't pushed to students where I grew up. I feel bad trying to do conversions by a calculator or the web & not getting it right.
It’s actually really simple. It works on 10s. Very logical.

In the army, everything was metric cuz our allies all used the metric system. 10mm in a cm. 100 cm in a meter. 1000 meters kn a kilometer.

I think there was a time when the U.S. was gonna go metric. Everyone went apeshit. Sounds scary but it would make things easier.

But then again, where would I find a 31/64ths” socket!!

A pair of channel locks works just fine...
 
That's uber-Wonderer productive.


You deserve the weekend off.
I wish! I have a 4-page questionnaire that needs to be completed before I see the lawyer on Monday.

My bed got delivered today. The delivery guys were going to take some parts that came with the bed. They couldn't understand why I wanted them. I finally had to say, "Just  DROP it!"

When I came back from walking the little girl, the lawn guy was there. He was gaslighting me about something he promised to do (and hasn't done). I had enough and fired his ass. Now, I have to decide if I want to cut the grass myself or hire another service. Basically, all they did was mow and blow and go. I have a level lot; I can mow it, I think.

Then the boat guy, Frank, showed up. I climbed up into the boat and threw down all the stuff that was in the storage areas while Frank winterized the motor, and removed the prop and battery. Then we put the giant cover on the boat. It's a 24 ft so the cover is HUGE and unwieldy. Frank did most of the work.

This weekend will also be trying to figure out why my docking station and new laptop aren't getting along. 🙄 I just want stuff to work! Is that too much to ask? 😆😆
