Doggo was barking like mad this morning and I think it's because she just had to poop. She doesn't bark much, and in fact that's the first time in probably a year I have heard her bark. She's got a cute bark! She stopped after I pooped her.
Completely unrelated, I finally got my pistol permit from the state of Connecticut Friday. The entire process took about three months, which honestly went faster than I thought it would.

Exactly what does the permit allow you to do with a pistol?
Huh...I just got an e-mail that I earned a spot in the Ironman World Championship this year. 
Clearly the only reason I got an invite is because the race has been moved from Kona to Nice, France and slots aren't as coveted. Still, it's cool to get that invitation. I will most likely pass though.

Morning Monkeys.
Got a shipping notice from Rock Auto for Wednesday, so far they are the winner. After feeling defeated Saturday, getting shit done Sunday made me feel much better. The truck project is still daunting, but I feel like it's coming together and that is motivating. Moar coffee.

Busy weekend...
Went to Manhattan for a couple of days, had some family stuff, a little house work and a whole. lotta. rain. Hopefully things will dry out for some mid-week riding. We shall see.
Gotta get a service appointment for my car scheduled today, also hoping to hear back about a job I applied for (unrelated to the car service, just letting train of thought roll). I think that's it for today.

Were there any unexpected hoops or hang-ups that slowed the process, or was that the standard processing/wait time?
Apparently I have a dentist appt today. I also slept like shit last night. I just realized it's because I was stressing about the race this weekend. Our pit spot isn't a pull-through, the exit lanes are relatively tight, and given the width of the spots, I might need to pull straight in so that we have access to the trailer. All of which means that I have to back the trailer out again. Oof.
Also just figured out that almost every exam prep course is on the weekend of Haley's Grand Junction race. That's a Thursday through Sunday race weekend and the courses are monthly Saturday through Monday 7am to 5pm. Wifey doesn't know enough to support her, so we'd need to have a local shop do the full support (transit and race day support), but we need to have someone who would handle the race schedule that's the issue. Gonna be a rough one to sort out.

Everything went pretty much as expected. You just need to make sure you read and follow all of the instructions, requirements, and deadlines.
Just wondering about the big banks this morning, also working, mostly working.
"Get a kart," they said.
That reminds me... I should probably swap the snows for the summer tires soon.
Wondering about what exactly?
Goldman had a strange response on the phone, like they were closed today.
Today not a holiday, I think.
there's an EU holiday today i think? our offices in switzerland are closed at least.
i thought it was supposed to be robots
I’ll take the George Jetson “one hour per day, two days per week” offer when it comes along.
I haven't had a 2 day weekend in over 20 years, and now I have a 4 day weekend every other week. Still not long enough.
Open carry? Concealed carry? When loaded?
