A lot of interrupted sleep last night so I am a little low energy today. Cooking some Christmas food and then some gifts sharing later.

- Thread starter CBJ
- Start date
Will leave work in about an hour or so. A quick last minute market run, then a (hopefully) painless and quick trip to the post office to ship my RMSS elf their gift! Then bed time. Mrs. Scrub is going to spruce up the house a bit for some last minute guests while I'm napping, then we are ordering a boat load of dinner for everyone from out favorite local Chinese place. Maaaaaaybe we'll watch Glass Onion in the evening.

9 y.o. is bouncing off the walls. Windy as heck here too, hopefully the roads are cleared before I leave to drive to my MILs... Google maps is saying there's a bunch of accidents along the way, and currently it would take an extra 30 minutes. That's not too bad, considering the storm that's hit us...
Hey man lol. I've got a 20 mile run to do but it "feels like" -10 degrees this morning. So, run is not gonna happen today.
11F and little wind, so that's nice. I think I am going to test the trails, see how wet and blocked by windfall they still are. Baby Jesus is visiting this evening so I can't spend too much time in the woods today, unfortunately.
Phone made them look a little more radioactive than they are. But green and red pancakes because why not.
Morning Monkeys.
Currently 30 and my driveway is 1" sheet of ice, as is the road in front of the house. No walkies this morning and the pups are getting stir crazy. But if I let them out back, they all slip on the patio and I want no part of it.

hello chums!
slept quite well due to benadryl (thanks science!) but I am sick with man flu again so sore throat yesterday and stuffy today. I'll grab some sudafed and maybe a ride to carve out the boogies.

Couple of beers last night, slept like shit as a result. Probably ought to run out and get a couple last minute stocking stuffers. My fat ass could really go for some exercise of some sort as well now that it's not well below zero.
So I got a voicemail at 10:30 last night telling me I could go home from my work storm duty assignment. Ehhhh, they never dispatched me in the first place. 
No call, no text, no e-mail.

¡Hola, monos! 
Unsure what’s on tap for me today, but I’ll tell you this: I bought Teh Spousal Unit™ an art for Christmas this year. It’s a risky move, but I think she’ll like it. I’m usually more of a “useful gift” like of guy, but dang it if she (and I) don’t really just have what all we need already. That sounds so bougie when I think it out loud in my head.

Last hour:
Let me just uninstall Adobe Creative Suite, since Wifey doesn't use this computer anymore. Wait, why do I need to update the software first? Wait, why is it not downloading the software to update it? How the fuck do I delete this? Ah! Adobe has a forced uninstall program. Excellent! And... Dreamweaver and Muse are left. Let me just use Windows to uninstall. What do you mean I can't? Great. Now I need to find a new program. What the fuck is this? I need to get into the Windows Program Files to delete this shit? What the fuck is that? Well, at least it's only 2.GB left... FTS. I'm gonna go drink my coffee and study.

16*. picking up stuff for tomorrow's dinner. went to bed too late and thus am le tired. going to friends for dinner tonight. need moar coffee now and to wrap a few things laterz.
Rode, so that was nice. As expected, plenty of trees down, lots of frozen surface water and still quite a bit of running water that freezes instantly on anything it lands on, my bike is a pretty icicle. The lakes are far from frozen though, so that's less nice.
No bikey makin me crazy. Did some leg lifts on the inlaws chin up bar. Abdonimal muscles are stupid sore. Not impressed.
Sister's in town from Sac, so we're going to hang out with her family this afternoon. Then we're doing our annual Christmas Eve steak dinner. Still have a little wrapping and Christmas prep to do, but hopefully I can throw some weight lifting in there somewhere.
Between the baby, my fucked up back, Christmas and the cold, it's been a bad month for riding. IIRC, your day is coming soon, my friend....
Forecast to hit +61F today, no wind. I shall go ride the class A paths today as the roads are packed with insane last minutes shoppers driving like assholes and I have no interest in becoming a hood ornament
This is true. Told the little one this morning and gave her a big sis shirt to wear to family gatherings.
Started warming 6pm yesterday and continued warming all night. Now at 35F and things feel *balmy* out there.
I decided to take the recycling out to the curb and immediately regretted it. Tried to go down the rocks next to the driveway and busted my face on the big rocks dividing the property.
It just started raining so it might melt by this afternoon, but it's an ice rink.

Took an M-G set to my sister's and got it running. Roads are shitty, 15 degrees and windy, I'm frozen.
