Oof.....
Damn, I felt fine tossing hay bales and moving crap in and out of the trailer yesterday and for some reason I feel like a stiff and sore old bastard this morning 
Oh well nothing that coffee and a couple of ibuprofen can't fix. Today is supposed to be the only non rainy this week so I better enjoy it while I can.

multiply @johnbryanpeters freedom units x 11 and that’s my temps. had to strongly resist the urge to say fuckit and not get up. but apparently i did so coffee, do your magic!
Poor titling. Not even a common letter to weekday.
Fun but uneventful weekend. Had friends over Saturday for St. Patrick's dinner. Kids were up playing until 10pm, which pretty much blew them up on Sunday. Got the summer wheels back onto the M, which is always a shit ton of fun. Although it decided to snow 3" of wet and heavy at 4pm yesterday when it just expected to rain. Back into the Subaru today.
I think I've decided to not sell the M. My sense of regret on just deciding to sell it is already higher than when I sold the Forester, which I still regret four years later. I just enjoy driving it too damn much and know I will want to get something else fast if I sell it.
Off to work. Giddy.

Good Morning!!
I fine start to my last week here at my current job. I took Thursday and Friday of last week off, so just cruising through this week as a dead man walking. I see they are running interviews as well - we've had about 6 people leave here in the last month, so they're scrambling to find warm bodies....
It was a wonderful weekend of not doing squat...I liked it.

8" of very heavy snow on the ground from last night. Glad I cleared half of that off the driveway at 8ish before bed.
Mornin!
Brother and sister-in-law were up visiting Saturday. They are trying to sell their house but crazy neighbor had other plans. Feud started cause sis has out bird feeders and this guy didn't like all the birds hanging around. So he decides to camp outside during the open house with a dead mouse in a mouse trap handing out flyers saying their house has a massive rodent infestation that they won't disclose but he feels obligated to. Several offers were pulled due to crazy neighbor. Talk about bad neighbor...

Happy Monday, a day full of smiling faces, rainbows, and happy cheer!! 
I've got a lot of busy grunt work to do at work today. I love days like this...just mindless crap that I have to get done that requires very little thinking.

He doesn't like his neighbours, so he sabotages their attempt to sell so he's stuck living next to them for longer.
MENSA candidate right there.
Attendinf a work conference this week and amongst the sea of blazers and suits I’m the lone one repping a flannel.
Freezing damn cold for March! I’m working on the epic Monkeyfest planning while enjoying my coffee and Irish soda bread. Hoping it warms up ‘cause we are on our last load of firewood and I hate having to run the furnace already!
5 minutes in the office and the kill list is already engaged. 
this sounds probably illegal. they should be talking to a lawyer.
baked beans are totally acceptable as a breakfast food
bork
seems i'm not the only one in this predicament. i've got another pile of probably ~4 cords that's unsplit, but definitely not seasoned enough yet
During the heavy snow storms last winter, when Wifey was still flying to SF regularly, there were a few Uber guys who drove trucks or other vehicles that could travel in pretty deep snow. They always got boost or whatever it's called because so many drivers couldn't get out. The ones that she has a regulars had other more efficient cars for dry though. Not sure about using it as a regular though, that's dumb.
i have a buddy in vermont who owns a unimog, which he's driven in 2 feet of snow without issue. i've told him he should run it as an uber during blizzards.
Moved my desk to a new building. Tiny desk with low walled cubes. Loud and crowded. Blech. At least there is indirect sunlight and the sweet hum of cnc machines putting in the background.
He'd make a killing. I don't think Uber would accept a car that old though.
the cab isn't exactly comfortable, but he could probably convert the cargo area to a seating section.
i remember when he bought it he had to flatbed it because it wasn't street legal. he has since remedied this.
mmmm, chicken salad as part of lunch, mmmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Had an interesting driving experience this weekend. I got the M onto summer tires yesterday and was enjoying everything that comes along with that. There is a banked, decreasing radius, 2-lane cloverleaf on ramp (with a very large wall behind it) near my house that makes for a fun turn. I went in, on the inside lane, parallel to a guy in a raised Suburban who apparently was incensed that he was being passed and decided to not let that happen. I didn't realize it was a thing until I heard his tires screaming like the world was ending as he was sitting in my blind spot. He was pushing the limit of that thing before we even hit the hook of the turn, soI decided to get the hell out of dodge because I was sure he was going to put it into the wall. Somehow he didn't, but he ended up way into the emergency lane and almost hit the light signal at the turn exit.
Once on the highway, he got up to about 100mph to catch me, because at that point I was close to a half mile ahead and doing 85 (yeah high speed limit areas!) to proceed to have a rage fit in his car. Thankfully my exit was the next, so I just waited to take a last minute lane change to avoid him.
WTF is wrong with people? Cars get passed all the time, it's not fucking NASCAR. The inside lane of a corner will almost always be faster because it's shorter, especially on a 50yd banked turn. A car is more likely able to go around the corner than a raised truck. Just wow.

It's ///Madness, I tell you! ///Madness!
bro do you even dozer?
It would have been the same in any car, I think. Guy was just full on bro-dozer. He did have the black-white-blue US flag too.
not sure if monster energy or steroids. but raging nonetheless.
What a crappy way to start the week. Spent all of last night coughing on queue every 3 minutes. The type of repeating cough caused by some stupid itchy feeling in throat. I overdid the water intake throughout the night too, so in addition to coughing I was also up all night pissing. Got to sleep at probably 4am; to put it mildly, I feel more than a little groggy this morning.
But I should complain too much, we had some awesome fat biking conditions on both Saturday and Sunday.
