Baby Hazel arrived late last night, after 20 hours of labor and 2.5 hours of active pushing. Girl made a dramatic entrance. Both mom and baby are doing great, just exhausted from the long labor.

Now i guess we all just hang out together for a few days before going home :confused:

Got beat up a bit during my presentation this morning.

Leaving for Portugal tomorrow for house hunting. Resignation letter is written...
What are you doing in Portugal. High on the list of countries to visit.

Back at the office. Leaving soon. Cold beer in the fridge and then hitting the beach.

Oh, hai frens!! I've got 8 of the next 10 calendar days off from work starting today. 10 of 10 would be better but I'm not going to shit in my cornflakes here. Slept 10 hours left night to get started. I guess I should go do stuff...

Also, the new Suicide Squad movie cracked me up. Best DC movie yet, although that bar is admittedly low.

I will retire there as soon as we find a house we like in a town we like. They are offering 10% tax on our retirement income and they have amazing weather. Their residential architecture leaves a lot to be desired, but the newer construction is more normal.

Wow, coffee yesterday afternoon paired with post work beer sure made for a shitty restless sleep.

Congratulations, Tim! Tell your wife the labor for subsequent kids will be shorter. :D


/me is working. I did not bring my red stapler with me, but I did bring my own keyboard to use at this PACS workstation. Ain't nobody got time for the spongy, vague keystroke-feel of the standard keyboard on this computer that I gravitate to on most days when actually here.

Firstly congrats!

Secondly, Uber Eats/Doordash some real food for you and the wife. That was perhaps the most solid nugget of advice we got from our tour of the Labor and Delivery area before having our kid. Hospital food is not what you need to recover from 20+ hours of L&D.
And home made tea/coffee if you can manage it.

when we had our daughter, there was a wood fired pizza place that opened like 2 blocks from the hospital. i went there to get pies for us, they had Maine Beer Lunch on draft. so i had 2 pints while I waited.

Hello monkeys. I stayed up too late last night fiddling with the remote lockout on the hardtail, I tightened the cable which seemed to improve engagement. I'd like to remove it but the default position is locked when the cable is removed. A lockout is not useful to me; I find it annoying that I can't remove it without replacing the top cap assembly. :monkey:

@Adventurous FTW

Here. Still working on garage storage install. Company just sent me a touch screen monitor for if I ever go back to seeing people in person. Just forgot to tell me about it. Very confused when received.
