It's like I slept another hour!
Last night was crazy busy..... Lots of searches, lots of goodies discovered.
Also, will be learning proper, key word is proper, technique for field sutures as part of a wilderness survival training. Fun fun.....

If you can get your hands on something like dermabond that works great for small stuff.
Here. Back to work tomorrow. MIL gone today. Ready to go back to sleep.
Spent an hour at Home Depot trying to get a quote on carpet for the rest of our house. The carpet that went down in November is no longer available as a normal model so it has to be special ordered and we don't know the cost. The closest color, thickness, feel, etc is almost double the price that we paid for the basement carpet. Might get to go to a local carpet store for an estimate as well - not really how I wanted to spend the rest of my weekend.

Meh, I just hate March. I am a OK with the DST change but I would be happier if we just kept it year long and didn't go to the winter darkness bullshit every winter. Can we join the Maritimes in Canada yet?
Carnival of the Animals with the kiddos this afternoon. For now, hoping they're not up to too much mischief as they play upstairs unattended. I have MATLAB work to do--curve fitting is the project of the day.
Edit: MATLAB's cftool is amazing. I was contemplating how to write my own interpolation routine last night (messy data--not all X values corresponding to time stamps line up), yet it is this polished, fully functional project that made it trivial.

got up before dawn and went out for a 2.5 mile run in the hills, tossed on my uniform once I got back to the camper and now I will do 9 hours of EMT standby and the horse show. Pleasant 39* out
All of the outdoor hockey ice has melted here...kiddo is now bored. Gotta find something to do to keep him off screens all day.
So we can ride after work without lights.
On that note, I just back from a terrific ride. Too short though, only one hour. But I'll take it.
Goodmorning. Im pretty beat, kids fifth bday party yesterday, had people over and it rained. Plan was to have everyone outside, that failed. Now its sunny out.
But i need your guys help. Trump is more than likely going to drive by my work/property when he goes to look at the border walls. I really wanna do something. Maybe a sign, maybe get the lunch truck to sell trump tacos. (hot dog in tortilla). I dont know, any ideas?

oddly enough....shrub and barry are not in the picture.Probably:
Fucking taxes... apparently we are living the monacle lyfe and not paying our bi-weekly share.
Oof. Good thing it isn't due until mid April.

I posted it from work.
Take it to Kinko's?
Run in to that issue the last couple years, but we prepare for it. Paying down the mortgage kills the interest deduction. Still smarter than getting a refund though....Fucking taxes... apparently we are living the monocle lyfe and not paying our bi-weekly share.

Good catch on the "o" -
Yeah - deductions are all down - can't deduct any IRA contributions due to monocle status. Fortunately, now that we owe a small fortune... the wife is no longer working.
I get why the US Army thought the soviets must have had a mind control technique/device to convince people to come to their side. Today my father has claimed there are some subliminal messages on our state tv station since some of his "rather liberal" friends started watching a local batshit insane religious tv station... He even has a Movie Editor friend who checked it for him. Told him to better stay away from his friend before he gets a tinfoil hat for his upcoming birthday.
"Your phone hasn't been used for more than 24 hours and needs your code to get unlocked" - I must be doing something right.
Meh. The damn snow isn't melting quickly enough, everything is still sloppy. Rode across town and back, climbed some semi-paved trails, general misery prevails. Having spent a large part of the day on a new style resume and not being done yet makes me a dull boy, too.

So, the Norco e-bike I ordered is sold out until July. The alternative that my dealer is offering is quite possibly one of the fugliest bikes that I have seen...opinions?

Maybe it's so hideous it's endearing.
That's what I am telling myself...

Hmm, now they're saying a blockbuster 12+" storm is a possibility for Boston on Tuesday. 
I like my Hok skis but I don't like them *that* much.

Rode bike today. Still don't like the fork. At all.
new fork.....
My cousin brutally beat my other cousin. Shae had to airlifted to the Hospital. Karen is in jail. So is her step mom. Jeez. Banjos are playing in the holler shit. Ontario folks are losing it. I only kinda care...
70 degrees today. Hit some lame trails, hand felt OK but the thumb started swelling a few hours after the ride. Better than not riding I guess.
I'd like to say I had a productive day. @Nick joined me ski boot shopping today and helped (really did) entertain Haley while I was getting fitted. Nice having somebody with your who knows what the hell they are talking about and is not trying to sell you something when shopping for something pretty expensive.
MIL went home today, which sent Haley into a shit fit. She really doesn't like it when people leave because she doesn't get to see them enough as it is. Doesn't help that our normal 'out' is going to the park, biking, etc and she busted her arm again.
Also, I just took a swig of IPA thinking it was black cherry soda. I was not ready for that.
