#Smoked #Salmon filets sounds very delicious right now. I miss going to the farmers market in #Sacramento and buying their smoked fish. I have not found another seller whose product is as good.

102F in the Arden-Arcade area of #Sacramento #CA. #Sac is another one of those places that gets a lot hotter than one would expect. But the plus is that there is often a cool sea breeze coming from the Bay Area in the evenings.

I bought this tabletop #Galaga machine when I was working in #Sacramento. I really need to play it more. I think more play time would improve my productivity, too.

Another reason homeownership is sliding for those who don't already own real estate: the price is rising at many times the inflation rate. One guy I worked with in #Sacramento told me he lives in a major city near the agency's regional office, and that renting apartments (not buying / becoming an owner, renting!) in that relatively high crime area costs around $4,000 per month.…

Regular people mall
There was one of these in #Sac, also. It was near the State Expo fairgrounds. @bthall and I (and his dad) met up there one time.
#Sacramento is actually not a bad place.

Rich People Mall I found one in the #Sac area. It wasn't enclosed, so maybe "mall" is the wrong word. But it was a ritzy shopping area with a Whole Foods a Barnes and Noble, and some places so expensive looking that I didn't even want to walk in front of them. (From there, I went to Macaroni Grill, but the way it took me was near the prison and a dam, then across a river. I exp…

Suddenly remembered that I was reinitializing the family #NAS ( #Synology DS416j ) before I left #SoCal for #Sacramento. They haven't been using it for 7 months (6 months while I was in #Sac, almost a month since I returned).

I think I’ve only had one dream this year that I still remembered when I awoke. I was in #Sacramento, walking back to the #hotel from the store. I had two heavy bags in each hand, so I could not move quickly or lift my hands very high. Some man attempted to rob me—and then I woke up.

In the months that I was in #Sacramento, I never once visited Dimple Records (which went out of business while I was there), though I did visit Dimple Books during the final weeks of their going out of business clearance sale.
I don’t really regret not going, because I don’t really have a place to put more stuff anyway.

Something like this really did happen in #Sacramento while I was there. McDonald's ran out of burgers, so everyone went to Burger King. BK ran out of Impossible Whopper (vegetable-based) patties and also got so far behind that orders were taking in excess of thirty minutes. Only in #Sac would McD's run out of burger patties. I've never heard of that happening anywhere else.

One guy at the #Sacramento office was telling me about his power set up. He lives in PG&E territory, so he's having photovoltaic panels, a wind turbine, a Tesla powerwall storage system* installed, and then, any extra power ships to #PGE. He said that even with the outage resistance, he would not have done it without tax incentives.
(Surprised me, because he's of the "buy an electric car, period" persuasion.)

In #Sacramento, I sometimes took a walk between 06:00 and 06:30 on Saturdays. I don't do that here. Some people let their dogs roam outside their yards.

Last day at this assignment in #Sacramento. Everything is crawling.
-
Someone at work was advising someone else about the parts of metro #Sacramento that he should include in his property search (the 2nd person is newly moved here with a young family and wanting to buy a house). About one neighborhood, she said it was the only place where she's ever seen police helicopters announcing a suspect's description. . That is true. I saw that happen her…

Apparently, there was a #PSPS that affected parts of the #Sac area. A man in the drugstore was looking for somewhere to buy a battery-powered AM/FM radio and the clerk at the counter also mentioned that power had been out at her home. At least parts of the #Sacramento metro are covered by the city-owned #SMUD utility, so I was surprised to see this.
