** Friday something something... **
- Thread starter Nick
- Start date
Feels like we're in a hurricane, heavy rain and howling wind. It's hard to get any sleep in that.
A bit early for that, no?
I heard the awesome 'bomb cyclone' term thrown around ... any chance you'll get snow out of this? (#silverlining)
Ended up having to spend 1000 USD to fix the window design issue. At least I got a better offer on all the appliances for the kitchen than I had hoped for. So in the end, I am equally poor this week.
Got a group of old friends from the teenage year at the house this weekend to party and have fun. We meet twice a year. Should be good times and the family has been sent to visit mother in law.

The mountains might get some heavy wet snow, but the most precipitation will happen here in a form of rain - 4" of water south of Boston.
Scattered Showers today, wind has dropped. The wife and I are going to try a new restaurant that I found in Dublin. should be fun https://burmaburma.com/dinner-menu
In the meantime espresso and oatmeal to kick start the morning

Just started dumping a little snow. Winter aconite is blooming.
Good Morning!!
Whew....glad that commute is over. Winds howling at about 50-60 mph. - I just put the car in neutral and let Mother Nature take care of the rest. Last time I got blown like that, it cost me a week's salary and one of those tests TN takes....
No basketball practice for the kid tonight, so that means I can stop by my favorite pizza place and pick up the 24" wagon wheel pie on my way home. Gluttony powers....ENGAGE!!!

Nope, along the coast all we can look forward to is Boston flooding.
5+" of rain, 75mph gusts, 35' seas and 15'+ over normal high tide.
So of course, I get a phone call yesterday that the Jeep needs ball joints, tie rods, etc. They quoted $1110.
Told them to put it back together and I'll do that shit myself. This is what I get for being lazy about the axel seal. Think we're putting a dog down this weekend too. FTS is through the roof and my week hasn't even started yet.
Wife has surgery Tuesday. Prep appt today. Getting the Subie back from Subaru service. They can't figure out the engine throttle issues. Wtf.
Mil coming into town tomorrow. Maybe get up and ski with Haley. Who knows...

Happy Friday, beautiful ridemonkey community. 4000 yard swim done before work (2.3 miles). Appropriately tired now.

Sorry to hear about the doggo, @Pesqueeb .
On a positive note, you don't have to deal with this. Holy shit, what a terrible experience this must have been for everyone...

my breakfast burrito is extra spicy and extra tasty this morning.
I Ubered in and arrived early as a side effect, so I got such a burrito from the hospital cafeteria. It was pretty good for $3.50 - whatever employee discount I get. Eggs, mild ground sausage, green chile, a little bit of cheese.
:notbadobama:
wawa makes a pretty solid burrito. eggs, bacon, salsa, pepper jack cheese, hash brown, guac, jalapenos.
Here.
Work is moving along.
New carpet going in today in the new house, will be nice to get rid of that dingy old stuff...
Ball is rolling on something that may or may not be good...

Was on a Dash 8 flight to Charlotte that was so bumpy that random items in the cabin spent as much time on the ceiling as on the floor. All the other passengers and flight attendant seemed rather nonplussed. I was sweating it a bit. Had it been a full airplane I would have expected to several people freak the fuck out and lose their lunch.
