My goodness is the wind howling. Insomnia for the first time in a while. Long day in store.
Another day, another dullard.
Reporting for duty.
$875 later and the wife's car has new tires. Yay...
Not much on tap for the day.

You?
no....better than most of you at not getting sick.
Says the guy who's been on an airplane sometime since March.
The odds of catching Covid-19 on an airplane are slimmer than you think, scientists say
According to a new study, the risk of contracting the virus on a full flight is just 1 in 4,300, and the odds lower to 1 in 7,700 if the airline is adopting the middle seat open policy.

We canceled our Christmas break travel plans (flying to/from Seattle) not because of the risk of the flight, per se, but because of the risk that I might need to quarantine after we get back if a contact was confirmed later to be positive. Also non-zero risk of having someone become sick and then being stuck in the wrong part of the country relative to my work...The odds of catching Covid-19 on an airplane are slimmer than you think, scientists say

House has water, ftw. $1200 later, whole bunch of new pipe and two new ball valves installed on the main line to deal with the failed valves from before.
Did discover that the street key has some issues, so that will be getting repaired by the water district soon.
Did just accidentally discover that the parent's friend of Haley's from preschool has a water clean up company. So we have a call out to them as well.
I did manage to find two untouched boxes of flooring from the main floor up in the garage rafters and have about 50-60 linear feet of flooring for the basement. On not sure if that is enough, but we'll find out soon enough. If not, Wifey will be getting new floors too. We weren't planning on painting or updating the baseboards downstairs to match upstairs for a while, but we might just be getting there unintentionally. Thank FSM for emergency funds.
Now it's a matter of waiting for insurance and calling out for some contractors and getting quotes.

10.33 mile ride done at my new favorite place. With like a half mile to go, I slipped off a skinny and my pedal smashed my shin. Fucking hell did that hurt. 
Now I've got a knot there and a nasty bruise will surely follow. I'll be icing that shortly.
Just housed a plate of the last of the Thanksgiving leftover, but fortunately I still have two slices of chocolate cream pie.

i understand that totally.
Cool story.
Just got back from my 2nd skate ski ever. It's not as bad as I thought. I kind of thought it would be like the road biking of the skiing universe. But it's much better than road biking. A bit more involved in terms of technique and engaging in terms of terrain. Maybe like the cyclocross of skiing?
I'm not really about suffering for pleasure, but I think there's a way finding a middle ground. That said, It sure can be painful if you're racing though, holy jeez.

Just burns to his hands. Halo likely stopped him being decapitated.
Went for a 13 mile ride on the gravel bike with studded snows and full fenders...and wondered why I felt slow as molasses out there. First ride in a month...I think it topped out at 18 degrees. And I didn’t ONCE think about adhesive strips of any kind.

Financèe unit decided we needed a new kitchen faucet, and informed me by breaking the pull-out sprayer nozzle of the old one in half."Buy a house," they said.
"It'll be great," they said.
They lied.
Bg guy, tiny space.
Ah, the joys of home ownership.
Man I am totally de-stressed. I need to hit the dirt more often. In two hours I saw a dozen humans on foot all wearing masks and no other Mt bikers. It was a good Karma ride too. I was just getting ready to poach a posted no bikes single track when I heard the faint engine noise of a quad so I stayed on the legal trail. ten seconds later a Ranger on a quad came around the corner. I would have still been in sight crossing the meadow at that point. We just waved at each other as we passed on a wide section of the legal trail 
Still working on timing with when to score it. Any tips, @SkaredShtles @StiHacka ?
Got the sourness I wanted, though. We baked four tonight and gave three away, (delivered still warm with Kerry gold butter) my wife knows how to make friends.
