Since I was a kid, I’ve known my grampa had a silly sense of humor. But I’ve spent the last few months digitizing his slides, photos, and film, and sometimes his little handwritten notes make me so happy.

Showing up to an autocross event in Nomex hotpants and nothing else 😌
![An ad Scanned from a 1977 Bayless Racing Fiat/Lancia catalog I found in the endless pile of papers. A woman, turned looking over her shoulder, wears a helmet, gloves, striped hotpants, and nothing else. She’s holding a tri-spoke steering wheel and her arm strategically blocks most of her side boob. There’s another steering wheel floating nearby and an Abarth scorpion drawing.
It’s a catalog page so the rest of the text reads:
BAYLESS RACING INC
ABARTH STEERING WHEELS
Abarth, grand-daddy of them all, continues to bring you only the very finest in steering wheels. Black leather, 14", three silver spokes embossed, naturally, "Abarth." Superb quality, superb feel ... from Abarth and Bayless Racing, Inc., connoisseurs of only the supreme for your import.

My kinda weather (I’m in shorts and a tee, every window in my house is open, and the 13mph sustained/20mph wind gusts have my curtains all aflutter). Happy Friday to me :)

It would also be easier to consume less if I had proper espresso cups. Which I refuse to buy bc I have so many cups and this small(ish) one from my grandparents is too cute not to use (but too small for regular coffee servings you see)

I've consumed an entire pot of espresso and spent the morning lying on the living room floor whilst listening to music as the (fairly cool ATC) breeze blows through the l open windows.
14/10 activities, highly recommend :)
