Ha, that reminded me of an older dude who used to hang out at a local coffee house. He talked about smoking Pall Malls like we talk about riding bikes but with that classic gravel voice.

About to be home ownerless.
Soon to have to move to a temporary rental I'm not super fond of (no bike storage)
In a state I have no interest in moving to
Yay.

Dislike.
let's get together sooner rather than later. Food, drinks, etc.
Cold, and so far the food is rather disappointing. Nothing bad, but nothing good either. Going to try my luck at a brewery tonight, I think. I actually kind of like the town, feels like every little valley is its own small town. All the rolling hills make driving very Mario-kart like. Training is going well, vastly superior to anything I ever got at the airline, with maybe one possible exception. Which is just yet another layer of "fuck that place" and further cause for concern about the state of commercial aviation in general.
Didja get a voucher to EuroLand??
After I poured my bowl of cereal I realized my cereal has ants in it. If I didnt look too hard, they were impossible to see.
Nothing is permanent. And maybe there’s something really freaking awesome coming your way. Ya never know man.
They were not seeking volunteers on the way out, unfortunately. We shall see on the way home.
Suckage.
accurate.
cinderlands brewing (strip district) is worth a visit if you feel like venturing there.
there is a spanish / tapas place called Morcilla that cures their own meats and is *excellent*
there's a really good oyster bar too, but I went to look it up and it apparently closed up shop in November
Will investigate
Here at the used car dealer. Ostensible offer price from CarGurus from this very place was $21.7k. Honestly I’ll take anything $20k or higher, as having this take up my time is worth something. Even 19 maybe.
I should get them to pay for my ride home at least though

They offered $20k. And I’m taking that, with them indeed paying for my Lyft or Uber home. Paperwork cooking now.Here at the used car dealer.

I have a coworker who is infamous for neither accomplishing anything nor committing to anything. My manager has attempted to solve the problem by making me in charge of his projects. After days of him dodging my requests for a schedule and my manger getting angry at me for a lack of results I sent the following message.
"Please provide a timeline by the end of the day or I will select one arbitrarily"
Got an answer in 5 minutes.
"Please provide a timeline by the end of the day or I will select one arbitrarily"
Got an answer in 5 minutes.
I remain unconvinced.
Pretty sure I can get more vert going to my current mailbox than I can on any hill within 30 miles of where I'm going...
Better than a divorce
(not sure if I believe that but have never met your spousal unit)
But if you are going to do it, do it with a smile on your face. You can always whinge here.

Sleep mission successful, and even managed to get up by 9:00.
Currently so bored at DFW, I am learning all about training your face to not scowl/RBF all of the time.
It‘s actually a thing, called ‘Face Yoga’.
Who knew?

Try to guess where people are flying by their appearances, usually good for a chuckle.
I do loves me some people watching. When I am in a specific mood, sometimes I’ll entertain myself by creating short narratives out of what I imagine their lives are like.
I wish I were talented enough with this to be a decent song-writer, but I’m really not.
No one wants to hear an average old (not famous) guy play ‘His own songs’ , lol.
Realizing that freed me from worrying about being a great guitar player. I’ll just play for me, and enjoy myself.

not Zapata Espinosa bad...
Zapata Espinoza on Instagram: "Life as I know it now is an after and before haze. Not a big or fancy house and as my daughter always complained, no AC. The house waz like a moto/pedal/punk museum with colors everywhere. The walls were filled with moments & memories to remind us who we are, where we've been, who are heroes are & who we love. Cherished, cherished memories that now live deeper in our hearts. The best moment? Seeing this last guy on the news sadly but defiantly say, "I'm 91 years old. I've lost everything. But tomorrow I'll start over." Bravo! Thank you to everyone for all the concern, messages & support...it literally helps us lift each foot to move forward. Cheers. #altadena #altadenafire #gratitude #friendsandfamily #whydidntigrabthat #timetorebuild #zapbikemedia"

Fuck AARP and fuck any parasite influencer.

Well, if this ain’t the strangest stripper pole I ever did see.
But this is a nice touch. It works, and impressive choices for only two records.

Good source of formic acid, rather helpful if you are pregnant.
My shits have been particularly large lately.
