'Morning. 2500 yard swim done before work. My swimming felt like a slow chore all winter, but it's come around the last couple of weeks and is starting to be enjoyable again. I've found swimming is like that for me. It'll suck for a while and I can be stuck in a months-long rut, and then I suddenly snap out of it. Boston Marathon is 11 days away and I am weather stalking like a mofo. All I know is the trend is looking promising. (monkeys can track my race live if anyone feels so inclined or want something to do at work on a Monday morning)

A peregrine falcon flew in front of my truck this morning near the bottom of the canyon I nearly hit it. It had a hefty pigeon in its talons. It was so close I saw lots of details. So fucking Metal. \m/\m/

In other news, met the lady last night for happy hour at Moe's, ate ribs, catfish & pulled pork with beer.
Feel wonderful today.

Its actually quite amazing. My bowel functions way better on BBQ, beer & corn bread.
Maybe farted twice last nite, very mild odor. Had the most solid poop this morning than i have had in 3 days.
I didn't really tolerate the mung bean daal very good this time. I even soaked them for well over 24 hours with multiple rinses.
The corriander chutney I made is the bomb. put that on scrambled eggs & wrapped it in ghee soaked roti. :drool:

Rode in to work, under my own power, no less.

Got to bike rack at work and found that the maintenance people apparently went through a month or two ago and cut off every last lock left attached to the rack, including my New York Legend chain. (or maybe they unbolted the racks?)

Hmph.

Bike now hanging out near me in my cubicle in the reading room instead.


Update: Called maintenance. 2 weeks ago they went through with an angle grinder and cut all the locks off.

I am so fucking tired of being on crutches. Ups is delivering a 4 wheel knee scooter to me today. Can't wait.
someone’s gonna SEND IT
there may be hope for you yet.
he’s just biding his time until his e-scooter arrives

lunchbeers up on a ridge in the middle of nowhere (but which still gets an LTE signal because elevation) are the best lunchbeers

Currently waiting for the doctor. Cleaning the bandage this morning was brutal, as there has been a huge amount of skin ripped off over the last few days. I'm not looking forward to pulling it again for this inspection.

Had a 1x1 with my manager yesterday who said that he was expecting me to be off the team by now, so he had nothing planned to talk about. Just keep doing what I'm doing because he has nothing to add to make it better. Hell of a pep talk. :think:

Working late tonight. Giddy.

Back from the dr's office already. Dr at Urgent Care apparently did a really good job and the wound looks great. Giving me super stick tape, not so much since it's ripped the shit out of my skin. I should expect a few weeks for it to fully healed. He doesn't think that the cyst necessarily needs to come out once this heals unless it abscesses again.

I did however learn that my man-boobs are formally man-boobs. Gynecomastia - legitimate boobs. I've know this for years, and they're big because my family breeds giant boobs, but I didn't know there was a name.
