[I Are Baboon]

Hey man. I got outside before sunrise and ran easy for an hour. 18 degrees but I was plenty warm...I was expecting a much colder wind chill but there was no wind. I'll hop on the Kickr later once I finish work.

I took the dogger to daycare this morning and she off the fuckin wall from the time I put the leash on her until I handed her off at the kennel. That daycare sure comes in handy. She'd be nuts if she had to stay in the house all day while I worked. The older dog though...I am not sure she has moved since 9:00 AM.

my wife and i saw a kia in a similar shade of green over the weekend and dubbed it baby diarrhea

oh and can I get a hell yeah: I think I may have tackled my squeakapotamus in the genesis. Something in the wheel well. I have had two days of driving a car that sounds normal, and it's fantastic.

why the hell are they do the stupid plastic half-flares like the buick tourx?

Best use of plastic cladding/flares yet- adding actual flares to the wheel arches. Everything now has the flat half-circle over the wheels, but some MFGs are adding plastic flares with "sharp" edges, and it looks fantastic.

Still topside. In the office today to shoot some lasers, but doing my best to cruise until Friday.

Otherwise, bought my wife an antique dresser yesterday. Solid rock maple with dovetailed construction. They sure don't make them like they used to. Only $50 too.

i would go for a 70's westphalia green with matching plaid inserts on seats with black or tan bolsters....

tan/silver is for the rental car fleet...

Nothing says "Happy Holidays!" like a good, old fashioned, witch burning.

What did a witch ever do to you? If you were turned into a newt you clearly have gotten better.

I do know of some Catholic Priests however that could learn some lessons from the lick of a flame.

Sounds like we've got ourselves a witch sympathizer over here! Are you possibly made of wood?

Is this the first year it's producing fruit? Or just coming into season?

 

[eric strt6]

Welcome to the club, AARP mailings are next

Is this the first year it's producing fruit? Or just coming into season?

That’s a lot of lemons. Can you make a lemon preserve of some kind? Seems to be more than you could make into lemonade.

Defo got pretty windy last night. Windows survived, but it seems some people’s didn’t.


Fallen trees, lifted roofs and broken windows. Wellington has been battered by the strongest gusts its seen since 2018.

How the fuck does the homeless looking guy in a bathrobe and crocs and an orange t-shirt go riding a kid sized bike loaded with plastic Target bags through the intersection against the light and he’s the one giving me the drag-queen “how dare you” stare over the top of his drugstore sunglasses?

[gonefirefightin]

if you don’t hear from me in 30 min it’s probably because I popped an ovary trying to lift this bitch into place and am leaking out on the garage floor.

Having a Cheese Steak tonight before going on a ‘try and shut my pie hole, I am getting fat and need to workout again’ type mode.
I’m gonna chow down, with fries as my vegetable. As my son says, “If it grows, it’s a vegetable”.
