Replaced the crappy plastic wheels on my office chair with some nice smooth-rolling rubber ones. Got rid of the floor protector mat thing. It's a simple thing, but it's nice.

What size did you go with. Small poppy ones or bigger plow through everything ones?

Currently 101, 28% humidity here. Le gross. Tiny One has been keeping us up a night again. I need a nap after lunch.

Planning a gravel ride up in the not-quite-so-hot-and-gross mountains sometime in the next few weeks.

Spent the weekend at Hawks Nest national park with some friends who recently moved to the East Coast. Beautiful area.

Then took the scenic highway to Snowshoe this afternoon. Saw lots of new places. 10/10 would absolutely recommend.

“WFH” the next couple days and then hopefully some good weather for riding.

People are fucking scum. Someone just stole my kids bike from outside a government office. Cut the lock with an angle grinder. What's the fucking point of "security" cameras if they aren't watching them. Dicks. Now I get to tell my 10-year-old about how bad people are.

the reality is we'd almost outgrown it. It probably would have been too small by next year (but I was hoping to get a few hundred bucks back selling it). My oldest outgrew his 27.5" XS hardtail this year, but it's still a little too big for boy 2 at the moment. Maybe with 24" wheels it might fit? ugh, so shitty.

thanks, I took a hit of nyquil. that seems to be helping. Going to Isolate in the RV
34 or whatever years of sobriety, out the window!

I’m kidding.
But almost fourteen years ago, when I had a year of sobriety, I got sick, and convinced my self Nyquil was ok. I started having a half a bottle of it every night, and soon enough, it was vodka time again.
I stay away from the stuff with alcohol in it.

Deep thoughts with Hannah last night while talking about Haley's karting with great-grandma:

GG: with Haley's kart, does it have a steering wheel?
Hannah: uh... Yeah. It has to have a steering wheel. You need one to drive. *Ugh* /s

Lots of laughing from a large room of people. Brilliant. :rofl:
