Ugh.....Only monday?
Changed to summer time here. On one side I'm super sleepy on the other it's good that I get to see light when I live work. I want the daylight savings time to stop and EU is supposedly planing to end it but I hope we stay in summer time and get more light in the evining since I don't really care about light when I'm barely conscious.
Now all I need to be happy is for people to GTFO out of my overcrowded gym so the squat rack isn't blocked by some moron doing curls.

Eighteen, snow's slowly receding (again), a black bear took down the bird feeder, still don't need a weapon to wander around, day or night.
Let's see if this week can beat the last one in terms of FTS. I have a suspicion it is already on track there.
Woke with a headache, a sign of the week ahead.
Slept almost 10 hours last night. Holy crap did I need that.
Good mornin!
Grandpa passed away early Saturday morning at the ripe old age of 97. He certainly had a good run, Grew up a poor kid of a single mom back when that was rare, flew fighter planes in WWII, had a long and distinguished military career that took him all around the world, was my first fishing buddy, and was present for all of the important milestones in my life when my other set of grandparents couldn't be bothered. Glad I had the opportunity to say goodbye and thanks at Christmas as it doesn't sound like I'll be available to fly home for his funeral.
On another note, I heard one neighbor screaming at the other one yesterday for eating gluten and wheat and sugar. ROFL!

So excited it's Monday. Actually, I'm not. Just kidding. My fts scale is high. I got no studying done this past weekend, so late nights to catch up.
Got my taxes back this morning. Pretty much where you want to end up: flat. Owed fed, owe state, cost to do = $200 back. I'll call it a win for forward planning.

I'm still hungover from yesterday's awesomeness. I'm glad I work in a fun environment, otherwise it would be torture to be in the office today.
have a good day y'all.
edited to add a picture from yesterday of my boy and his buddies all loading up in the chair in front of us. They had a blast. was awesome not to have to hold his hand. and it's hilarious how much peer pressure works to get kids to progress.

Beginning four days of FTS before hitting the road to Fruita for a week.
digging out from email after missing most last week unexpectedly. 
Took some time off to ski last week, visit with friends and generally hang out in a trick log cabin up at about 11,800'. Spent a day at Breckenridge skiing for the first time. I found tons of really interesting terrain there. I'd love to return when conditions we're right. Yesterday was bluebird skies and great spring snow and many, many hot laps off the Continental Divide were on the menu. I actually slept 8 hours last night.
Today is work and dealing with BS, of course. Have a great day, people!

Sober this time?
Breckenridge midweek is the one thing I'm going to miss from the Epic pass. But Ikon all the way now!
cannibalism too? I KNEW IT!
any monkies out there work in auto insurance?
Got laid off today. Never loved the job so its really okay but I would have liked to done it on my own terms but that should not be the case. Still not sure why they hired me in the first place. Salary until June 30th so I should be able to find something before then Ideally enjoy spring and start August 1st.
Done, paid, next?

Went kayaking on Saturday at one of the lakes past Phoenix. Wasn't cold or hot. We quit after about 6 miles because we had a new person with us who was getting tired, and the wind and waves were starting to pick up anyway. Back to the grind today, some riding in store this week.
The wife got her job so that is really cool. It will be good to have some time to support her.
I am sure it will lead to something better. I know much more about working here and what I am good at. Time to finish the house project, enjoy the garden and get in even better shape.
Me avoiding work today
I just ate a whole lot of jalapenos with lunch. It started out well, I pray that this ends well.
Hey waddaya know, I watched part of Walk the Line last night. That ring of Fire, man...
