Here its mild like it was March so I was in the garden doing some spring cleaning and continue my eradication of Spanish bluebells.
Three day weekend underway. I used to have to work all three days of MLK weekend, but with the new job I don't have to because somebody else does the W2's. 
Mid 20s. Cloudy. Pretty meh. 7 year old niece has a birthday party today that I have been given a pass to not go to. Planning to ride.
Morning Monkeys.
I signed up for a 3 hour sewing class at the rec center. I bought a sewing machine that is still in the sealed box, so maybe I can learn what to do with it. I need to make window coverings for Frita, so if I spend $200 on a machine and $40 on a class, I can save myself $50 making them myself. Should be interesting

Welp, this road to Jackson ain’t gonna drive itself. C’mon @Nick were you at? Let’s goooooooo
Dammit! I’m in a pool for that and the guy buying the tickets is not from Maine so… not me?
And then you can fix stuff when it rips, which is kinda cool.
Unpack, swap devices, read instructions, install software, update software, test, clean up...It does?
Dark, grey, swampy here.
Now need to get rid of the old Canon.
I wouldn't even bother with the software, just install the driver and you're good.
Even easier if the printer is connected to the network.
present. slept in. chores day. it's mid January and we have had zero snow. 
If anyone watches proper football and is a Man City fan
(Man Utd just beat them)

Finally got to play with the new hub and spokes, and the darned flange holes in the Vesper are too small for the Ti bladed spokes, 2.3mm holes vs 2.5mm blade diameter. 
They fit in my other hub just fine.

hanging out watching 13yo's rugby games at the moment.
Slept in because I fucking needed to. Been proofing sourdough overnight so I should get around to baking bread sometime today. In the meantime sipping espresso and watching the rain pour down. phone alert just came through for an area flood warning. It's good to live on high ground. Looks like it going to be a gym day (weekend).
Can I just win like... $250? That would be a nice, "let's get a nice dinner, guys!" type of event.
Took the girls to see "Chicago" on stage last night. Wife and I have seen it before, but the child had not. We all had a good time. Up way too late for me. Dragging this morning. Super nice out, I should probably do some yard work.
did you know that TRP TTV aero v brakes require special "pin-retained" brake shoes and that TRP also doesn't sell those anymore?? Neither did I.... Looks like I may have to order the backup pair just to get my hands on those.
That seems suboptimal.
Dumping snow. Huh.
Love watching the people who took 12hrs to do a 3hr drive last night aimlessly wander around the neighborhood because they thought roads and ski areas are open in 100mph winds and 50ft visibility. And that they'd be able to drive their bald ass tires out of the driveway of their airbnbs with a foot of new snow

too funny. Back in my Skiing days my 4runner had M+S BFG TA's and chains for all 4 tires when we planned on hitting Kirkwood for a powder day. We also had -30 sleeping bags, food, water, and shovels for those Just in case times, with us.Dumping snow. Huh.

Made it about 12ft before he realized he couldn't steer. Hey front chains are expensive
My favorite are still Mustang/Camaro/Charger/Challenger's with chains on the front, while people stand around confused as to why the car isn't going anywhere.
I'm sure he has plenty of candy tho
All the vehicles that I have ever bought (vs given or inherited like my Mercedes city car) have all been 4X4 with real low range vs 2 wheel or AWD . 72 Land Crusier, 80 SR5 Pick up, 86 4 runner, 2000 4 runner, 2003 F350, 2011 F350. Next vehicle will be a short wheelbase 4x4 in about 2 more years
There is nothing radder than watching a lifted tacoma with BFGs spin all four wheels trying to get up a driveway with 5" of snow the driver was too lazy to shovel
I got my first DL in PA. Had to take the driving test with snow and ice on the ground. Here in NC, where it rarely snows, I wait until later at night to drive when no one else is on the roads. It's not the snow that's dangerous.
gonna swap in a new 180 airshaft and wrench a bit with a buddy, then meet others for beers. pleased.
