I was up for a couple of hours around midnight, woke up in a full body sweat. Cervical x-ray scheduled for this morning. 
Here. Ran an hour on the high school track this morning. Now sitting at the tire place getting my winter tires put on, dialed into a Teams meeting for work while I wait but ignoring it while I talk to you people.
Snow in Denmark. Frost is good so the trails will be hard pack for the weekend except I will not have the car to get to the trails.
I am liking using Finely ground extra dark Italian roast beans for my morning espresso. Did a 5am transport and my next one got canceled so back home until 0730 . works for me. Moar espresso please
I won a pink inflatable crown in our white elephant. At least my daughter was happy to have me bring it home.
Here. Up at 5:30, but at least I went to sleep at 8. Most sleep I've had in ages. Hannah back to school, so work should be a bit easier.
Being the data person I am, I track Haley's best lap times and have been for the last year. I think she's in a point where her speed is going up quickly again, as she's set multiple PRs in both the Jr and adult karts over the last month. I'm guessing that her outdoor kart has something to do with it, as the speeds are way higher and the requirements for accuracy on line are as well.
At the race on Tuesday Nandini told Haley that 2022 was likely to be her last full season. She'll be leaving for college and got wrecked really badly at the last outdoor race cracking her frame, so she likely won't be doing as much karting anymore. She made a point to introduce Haley to her best friend, Joelle, who is a couple years younger and works at the outdoor track. Joelle said to let her know when we are going to the track and if she can go, she'll meet us there so that Haley can drive with her to learn more. Nandini's dad said we should keep reaching out to him for help with Haley's kart though, which is awesome.

No Boston bullshit today, so that's nice. A knife lost for a few days in the USPS system arrived this morning, which is also very nice. Major work project milestones reached yesterday so today should be quiet, that's nice. Hoping for a daylight ride in the afternoon, that would be uber nice.

Is this plaguemonkey!? I too am battling some sort of affliction. Day four of excruciating headaches, runny nose, fever and just all around feeling shitty. I got the flu vaccine last week, maybe it got me before the antibodies kicked in? Bastard.
Made it to quartzsite

now waiting for this place to open

Replaced tires with what?
I go from sea level to over 10k in the same month, makes a huge difference
oof. annual old man mountain biker holiday gathering at local dive bar last night left me draggin'...
Morning Monkeys.
Wow, I'm crazy nervous for an interview I don't really need. It's not like I was looking, they reached out to me. I don't have the background they are looking for, but they aren't finding that, so here we are. They are talking 25-30% above what I make, but the commute is less ideal. Not that any commute is ideal, but you know.
LinkedIn won't load for some reason, so I haven't e-stalked him yet.

Riding plans may be getting thwarted by red flag warnings. It's already quiet breezy out there.

i wish it was snowing here
how the admins confused me with gary i'll never know...and while there were a lot of sketchy and interesting things going on at smokey joe's late on wednesday night, i'm pretty sure bagpipe wanking was not one of them.
i had proposed "crusty old bog dude" as a title for gary, but it went to someone else
windy as all HECK down here!
did you injure yourself, or is this a nagging pain thing?
