I'm not a federal employee, so work today.
Big snow coming today, maybe I can be taken out by it then I don't have to work tomorrow.

Well it was interesting to try a new car for a long drive and compare it to the Volvo. BMW 520D wagon vs XC60. The display was better resolution and the wireless Carplay was nice. Didn't like how I sat in the BMW and the lack of lumbar support and to narrow seats. The BMW had gotten some kind of M badge and I think it made the car worse. Like the lighter steering and more comfortable suspension in the Volvo. Tires and rear wheel drive was a big plus. Even with winter tires the Volvo will spin easily so no M driving in the Volvo. BMW therefore was of course better on the highway but that was no surprise.
Anyway back to the grind. MRI tomorrow.

Woo hoo, holiday off from work! I don't care what the holiday is for, but a day off from work is always a good thing.
Gotta run the Coach down to the shop for its lube, oil, filter and what not. 3 month wait for the appointment and they will have it for over a week. ludicrous.
In other news,
Still shopping for a suitable DH frame and going to convert the flatbed into a hydraulic dump bed.

I do not have today off, but I took it anyway because kid turns 14 today and I'm going to need some time to process that.
Waiting at the ER vet to get Monday's stitches out. Came yesterday, waited 3 hours and was told maybe 3 more, so we left. Bright and early this morning, but will see if it's under 2 hours for a 5 minutes job.
The coffee shop doesn't open until 7, bastards.

I wish my work vehicle handled half as well as my truck/camper rig does in the wind

Ended up being 20 minutes, it was quick.
I work in finance, so today is a day off. To the zoo then who knows what. Took Haley to kart yesterday afternoon and she ravaged a large group of boys. Badly. Then she jumped in and did two adult races with me and finally beat me. I'm guessing because it was dense traffic, since the race prior I was still up by 1.5sec - but she got one hell of a boost by beating me. She also tore apart the adults in those two races.
She's getting faster in the adult karts, so more control of the power and better with the lines the in adult karts. The still chatters, presumably because she's too light to hold it down, but she needs to do a better job of wider lines in the adult karts.

When I got the steel pin removed from my thumb the doc just pulled out a pair of needle nose pliers from a sterile bag and gave it a gentle pull. If I had known that was all that was involved I would have done it myself.
I still distinctly remember the deep, very alien sensation of my bone vibrating a bit when I got four percutaneous pins removed from my right forearm in clinic.
It certainly was an odd and uncomfortable feeling but thankfully not painful.
Weirdest ER visit I had was having my eye irrigated to flush out a foreign object. They put a suction cup between my eye ball and eyelid then flushed with a solution for an hour. Wasn’t painful but definitely uncomfortable and very creepy.
Was this some kind of terrorist attack? Are you sure it wasn't a domestic object?
Wear your safety glasses kids.
Checking the weather forecast for my road trip next weekend. Very happy to see that it should be a dry as last prediction was for a lot of snow/ice storms. 1200 mile winter drives through the mountain west isn't trivial. Will probably take the more populous interstate route through Utah vs the more interesting Nevada route. 200 miles between towns in single digit temperatures in the dark seems like an unnecessary risk.
I have a clear and vivid memory of multiple medical professionals attempting to remove various drains from both my chest and abdominal area, including one such drain from my stomach that seemed to be at least 2 feet long, that the doc removed via a technique very similar to that of starting a lawn mower.
That was, as I understand, a big part of the problem.
Coach is in the shop for services, Should be ready to roll for another 20k miles in a few days, My Uber driver didnt speak a lick english and was listening to breathing exercise's in Vietnamese the whole ride back, I think he may have been going through some shit.
Mine is 16 and goes for her permit test tomorrow....I'm gonna need some help processing that!

@TreeSaw? Nevar!Have you tried alcohol?
Pretty neat place and I haven't checked out the higher elevation stuff that is still snowed in this time of year.
My father recently informed me that I was conceived during a family trip to Bryce Canyon.
