Saturday was another trip to Socorro, this time with the family. The dog enjoyed the horses, and I enjoyed the old cars. They had a lot of 1929 Model A's and I had the entire engine explained to me by a fan. The best thing was the showing of how pedal UI design has changed since 1929.
Having a gas pedal in the middle seems intuitive to some, but man it is hard to go from one car to another and drive them.
Monday's tasks were pretty simple.
Tasks

- 3 days of email backlog
- Wash dog which rolled in something
- Get app servers have same RPMS on them

(Edited to add: I misspelled pedal as peddle)

Pedal.
This one always seems bizarre to me; where do people _get_ the wrong spelling of 'peddle' from in the first place? The use of 'pedal' (as in foot controls) is way more common, these days, than the use of 'peddle' (which means 'sell', in the way that itinerant tradespeople sell stuff by wandering around and selling it person-to-person in markets or bars or door-to-door or whatever).
I misspelled it and autospell chose that version. And then I didn't notice it.
