11 hours of sleep last night after sleeping 10 the night before. Sometimes I wonder WTF is wrong with me.
I've got a whole 2" of snow to go clear from the driveway. Then errands, a 10 mile run, and FOOTBALL. Wife ran 2:11 at the Miami Half Marathon this morning. Good job, wife!

Sunny and cold, no snow, buried in land access politics, specifically how to dance with Vermont Fish & Wildlife. This is too fucking much like work.
Backasaurus this morning, more shoveling in store.
Time to get Prime, sucka. (Or is this for an add-on item?)
Did Stoney help you move one side table?
I am awaiting carpenter dude showing up. He's building a built-in bookshelf that'll span a wall of the basement, which we apparently "need" because my wife has accumulated so much crap for the kids that it won't fit on more modest shelving. My pocketbook shall bleed, but at least it was an anticipated and therefore budgeted for bleeding.
Went for a good ride yesterday, considering I have teh lung AIDS. Trails were kinda busy, but I really needed to get out.
Coughing like a mofo today.
Perhaps it will drive away some of the competition on our open house tour today...

If you can build Ikea furniture you can build shelves in the basement...
coffee, bacon, pancakes...turned the kids out to play in the snow before it's gone. plan to get out for a ride in it myself.
I, much like Stoney, did nothing to assist FT in his move. I actually ended up riding my bike.
This carpenter apparently works during the week for one of the high end builders in the area. I would hope it would be nicer than something I could whip out.
(We also had a custom extra-big, very nearly too big for the space, pedestal built by a handyman for the laundry room. That did not turn out so pretty and we won't be hiring him again. It is functional, at least.)
Good morning.
Did help to move the FT from his old abode to new yesterday. Woke up early to check the snow reports (big zero) so I went back to sleep for a bit. Coffee and news at the moment. Going to do some cooking today but I'm not quite sure what I want to make, and then watching football later.

Pancakes, shoveling, perhaps a ride later this afternoon when all the fatbike nazi are horizontal in front of their TVs, projecting their team's success as theirs.
A 11 year old targeted me during the whole skate and shoot. In his effort to show off I got by him for 2 goals. At 50 I can still skate circles around most of the local yutes.
God damnit. One of the Wifi assholes nuked shrimp in the break room. The whole hangar smells like that nasty shit. THE WHOLE FUCKING HANGAR!
should've gone earlier while it was colder. parts of trail in shade: $. parts in sun: shushy hell.
Final snow count 20". Spent all day shoveling, but did stop to take the kid sledding for the first time.
Neighbors had a blizzard dinner party last night. Got hammered.

Sleeper powder day at the Village today with the 8 yr old kiddo. He's getting hard to keep up with! They called 5", but it was more like 8". Good times.
I should have gone later but did not feel like riding at night. Forecast says slush and mud is on the menu for the next week plus.
On the bike for the first time since last Sunday's crash. Only six miles on ice covered gravel, but nice.
Bongshed got broken in to. Nothing is missing. I left the door open and so did the person I left it open for. Bike was still there. Bag of empties I put outside was inside. Footprints to the neighbors trashcans from the stairs. Snow on the Corolla was brushed off. I put the grill inside. Neighbors passed questioning.
Two avalanche fatalities *near* where we were skiing today. 6 foot crown. Brutal...that's three in a week.
You guys got Colorado snowpack up there this year?
Something like that. Not temp.gradient per SE, just weak early season layers...
Day 1 progress:
That is much nicer than what I'd build. It shall be finished tomorrow.
That being said, last weeks incident was a recent snowpack failure, so who knows.
Buried depth hoar is the bane of the Colorado BC skier's existence. Fortunately down here it happens EVERY FUCKING YEAR. So we are used to it.

Yeah - looks like that aspect had gone in December already? Maybe it didn't flush out *all* the shit...
when you know someone who is moving and you own a truck it is a great time to go on vacation.
the cook/owner of a chinese place in nc got caught processing road kill....a deer...he was cutting it up in the back parking lot and had it in one of the sinks....
