Our vehicles have these cool built in garage door openers. I have never programmed Roo's although she's had the car for more than 2 years. I programmed mine just the other day, but still never got around to doing Claudette's. Today however I noticed that the little remote that she uses, was wearing a hole in the material on the headliner of the car, That was my clue to get hers done as well, so that we could get rid of the remote. It's a bit of a complicated procedure, which is probably why I didn't have it done already, but after a bit of farting around I managed to get it working. That's when I had my latest bright idea!!
While I had her opener in program mode anyway I thought I would just program another button on my car (there's 3 for 3 different devices) to operate her door as well in case I ever wanted to park in her spot just to piss her off. Alas, I couldn't get it to work, and decided it would keep for another day.
Ten minutes later I needed to go uptown so I hoped in my car and pushed the button to open my garage door. I heard the door start up but it took me a minute to realize that it was closing her door!!! How could that be? Did I push the wrong button? Nope! I pushed the button again and sure enough it started closing again. I laughed. I have no idea how I did it.
But that's not the funny part. Because I was now focused on her door it took me a few more pushes to realize that it was controlling mine as well. Her door went down, mine went up! Mine stopped, hers stopped! Mine went up, hers went down.
What a hoot! Needless to say I had to start over, and I decided then and there that I really didn't need to control everything anyway. Just one more bit of obsession I need to conquer.
I've been taking it fairly easy on the training lately which is adding a bit to my waist line, but as of yet it's not stressing me. I did have a lovely little run today and managed 4 1/2 minute k's for 10 kms. I probably need to do a little more of that if I'm not getting much mileage in.
I am entering a whole new exciting world tomorrow, as Colb and I start our weight training program together. What an opportunity eh? I'll let you know how our first session goes.
He says that we should do fine because in his words , were almost twins. He says we both like the same things, we're both curious, and we both think we know everything!!
And that's all for today folks.

Hahaha, I think Colby is right!
ReplyDeleteAnd that's crazy about the remotes... Basically it seems to have programmed one remote to do both doors? Heh.
Ah, the mouths of babes! Enjoy the time together; you won't be able to obsess with him, I'm sure. And I still can't imagine 10 K at any speed being a "lovely little run," but to each .... as they say.
