inI used to roll my eyes at "Mean People Suck" stickers until a guy in a lifted truck cut me off twice on I-35
Totally get it, saw a "Baby On Board" after some jerk nearly rear ended me.

inVent: my proofing box broke so I used my car with a bowl of hot water and it actually worked
Wow, a pot of hot water in a car, that's just a fancy warm spot, not exactly rocket science.

inAppreciation post: the rigger in Baltimore yelled "swing the load, don't drag it" and I still flinch when I see a tagline go slack
That old rigger's voice never really leaves you, does it? I had a foreman years ago who'd smack the side of your hard hat if he caught you dragging a load and yell "cranes lift, mules drag," and I still feel that smack every time I watch somebody try to shortcut a pick. Those early chewings stick because they were right, and now we're the ones yelling it at the new guys.

inGot a call back from the innkeeper at the 1890s place on Maple Street in Helena, first repeat customer since I went out on my own
That first repeat customer has to feel good. You put in all that work going out on your own and then someone actually calls you back for more. That innkeeper must have liked what you did the first time. Word of mouth in a small town like Helena can be huge for a new business. Here's hoping that call turns into a bunch more down the road.
