To my surprise, it was actually nice and moist and flaky, so I just saved the Hardee&#8217;s for later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had a relatively good day for focusing on Autopilot. I didn&#8217;t complete the entire setup, but I felt like I had a better understanding of a lot of the pieces I had been missing. I brought half of a burger from Five Guys for lunch, so we just worked straight through all day, and I felt pretty good for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Casey&#8217;s had 50-cent wings, so I grabbed a bunch of those when we got back into town after work. As we drove home, I saw Gary parking at Point Remove, so I ate with Summer and then took Muad&#8217;Dib out to have a beer. The place was packed for stein night, so we were practically shouting at each other. It was a good time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we got back home, I could swear I heard a rat jumping around in my bucket trap, so I went outside to check it out. I had something, but when I finally made it out to Washburn park to release it, it ended up being a little mouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was a quick night to bed after that, because I was exhausted in the morning after some strange, bad dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Sixteen chickens.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We stopped by Chick-fil-A for a free chicken biscuit this morning, and then on a whim grabbed something from Hardee&#8217;s as well [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_crdt_document":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[96,36,37,42,27],"class_list":["post-9403","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised","tag-dog","tag-food","tag-friends","tag-pets","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9403","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9403"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9403\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9404,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9403\/revisions\/9404"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9403"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9403"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gallopingcow.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9403"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
