We got verification that our bikes shipped yesterday. I'm trying to figure out trip expenses. Rental company charged $147 more on card than stated on invoice, A kayak trip got canceled due to weather, but haven't seen a refund. WiPo problems.
I need to start chasing some contractors around.

Morning Monkies! Long, long day at work today. That is all.
So while doing dishes last night, I was playing this randomly and my oldest comes in to remind me that, like, he's been listening to these guys since, like, he was 6....
feeling like I could use another 5 hours of sleep...coffee might fix that
getting mugged by 3 dogs on the bed when the alarm goes off is the second best way to wake up.
damn another day on the short bus

Spring is here, the Enduro is waiting in my car for a post work ride and then my new ride shows up two weeks early. 'tis a good day.
Mornin!
Had a good night last night. Put more work into the trailer and managed to actually get a few things knocked out in impression fashion. It was nice to finally have something work out after a few days of seemingly working with little progress achieved.

@Adventurous It is nice when some things work out on a project. In my current bathroom Renovation, it took me hours to get a faucet and drain assembly changed. The damn drain assembly has not been removed in 20 or more years and that sucker was frozen together. At the end of it, I realized at the cost of my time, I would have been way ahead of the curve, If I had just bought a new vanity counter/sink and started fresh.
weights this morning, "Work" today, ride home and then Tennis at 8 PM.

Back to back meetings 7:30 to 11:30AM, then 1 to 3:30PM, then mañana.
Here. Replace two sprinkler heads and fixed Haley's dresser drawers last night. Wifey keeps running over the driveway corner one and this time she broke the actual pipe below. PITA as not I get to fix that one. My to do list around the house is not getting any shorter despite my best efforts.
I've decided on the REI bike from yesterday as after the 20% REI discount, dividend, grandparent gift money, and gift cards, it won't cost us anything out of pocket.

Today got off to a craptacular start. I left late and then remembered that I needed to put some gas into the car. Got to the gas station and realized that I had left my @kazlx wallet at home; but not before starting to pump gas, that would have sucked. Did a big circle around town, pumped gas and then got onto the freeway which was just a clusterfuck. Some asshat in a Jeep Cherokee just about tried to merge into my lane, even though their blind spot markers were clearly lit.
But, I've pounded back coffee, two bananas and have absolutely crushed a lot of small work items here in the office.
Thinking about a ride tonight, but it is currently raining so we'll see how that goes.
@DirtyMike sorry to hear.

Another two interviews today. One was a follow up and I put pressure on them with the offer I have from the other company. The other was a bad ass job which would be a dream job but I have some gaps in experience in relationship to what they are looking for.
Way too many meetings today, and tomorrow is going to be even worse. Meh. At least I've got a bike ride in 75 degree warmth to look forward to after work!
Soooo.... Nor Cal is finally getting another bike park!!!!!!!!!!!

One is chief operating office officer the other is a manager for a business unit where I will work with clients too.
this should be verrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyy interesting.
it's gorgeous outside and i'm working from home. if i didn't have to pick the kid up, i'd hit the shed and work from my hammock
Sounds like my group at work is being absorbed into the group I left in 2015 because they sucked/had issues/etc. Giddy. Confirmation in 2 hours. Really not looking forward to be underneath the same bosses I fled then.
Oof, just dropped over $500 on a weight distribution/sway control hitch. Shit better be worth it.
It'll be great on your newly convertible Tacoma after the roof peels away at speed...

one ear was totally white, and not very sweet

That's because it's May. You don't eat sweet corn in May.made some sweet corn with lunch

Well, if you *do* eat sweet corn in May... I don't wanna hear about it being shitty. 'Cause it's fucking MAY.
Maybe I should just take this opportunity to install a 5th wheel hitch in the backseat. I'll have the freedom of a topless vehicle on the way there with all the comforts of a camper once I arrive!
What you need is a convertible camper.
Pictures, dammit!
Which hitch?
I put a 12 x 12' sunscreen over the south side of the greenhouse today, replaced a filter housing and got water on at camp, mowed a bunch of lawn, changed oil in mower, moved stuff in and out of van preparatory to getting new tires tomorrow.
It's Heady time.
Update on sleep deprivation: It still sucks.
