Man, I can't do anything right.

Looks like I can go buy a new car now, my Camry is having more issues and I don't want to put that much money at it.

Mornin!

Was going to go ride yesterday, but the wife didn't have to go to work, so we ended up packing up the dogs and going for a walk by the ocean. Then we split a basket of fried clams and French fries + ice cream for dinner. Ride would been cool, but quality family time is too.

Bought my turkey hunting license yesterday. The old man expressed interest in hunting the birds, so I figured it represented a good opportunity to go hang out in the woods with him.

Just found out old boss is temporarily current boss until current boss comes back. I'm cool with that.

Funeral is Friday, which I won't be attending, though a few team members will. I don't do funerals well, even if I don't know the person. Over the last 10yrs I've become hyper-empathetic and it's like I channel the emotion of the room. It's not a good scene for me to attend.

Got one more door in the Subaru finished yesterday. It's noticably quieter while driving and the stereo sounds much better. Plus I still have two more doors and and the hatch to do.

Hi, friends! :cupidarrow: The weather today is going to suuuuuck, so I got out in some early morning sunshine to get a run in, and quite enjoyed it. I'll hop on the KICKR later for an ass kicker workout.

Hoping to ride with splat this weekend assuming the non-responding dog adoption folks don't get back to us with a weekend appointment.

Coffee, a poop, and clearing snow off the Sprinter’s roof and solar panel went down this morning. T-minus some number of hours before finishing loading the van, scooping up my buddy Hirsch, and heading to the desert for four (4) days. Teh Financèe joins tomorrow evening

All packed, headed to Moab.

Bring extra tires. And droppers. And ribs.

This GMT has seniority. My other post is bad, and I feel bad.
You should feel bad.

My wife will never let me forget the time she was sick and I left her to go to work. Lesson learned. :rofl:

What can I say, when I'm sick I want to be left alone. I don't need anyone looking after me, I'll be back when I'm good again.

In hell. Welcome!
I was just listening to their inside line podcast about that topic.
It is a shame because when I reported the issue two weeks ago, they still had MY21 frames in stock - they "had" one for me a week ago when they asked me for CC info but it looks like they chose to sell the remaining stock rather than using it for warranty replacements.
