Little dog was being a real asshole last night and had me up 3 times during the night. As such, I am dragging a wee bit of ass this morning.
Phone interview at 1030, otherwise, just puttering around doing stuff.

Head hurts. I'm blaming it on the frustration over a simple shipping label change with a customer. This ONE plant wants a different label, sure that's fine. But their documentation says to this, while the global company validation says to do something else. And because management here just wants to bend over and take it from them, I have to find a way to comply to both. Kill list. 
But at least its friday....

cold all week and somebody booked a meeting I can't skip when I should have been home with a beer in hand.
Good morning!! So going into a marathon, typically you increasingly scale back the running three weeks out from the race. You'd think that would make you feel better and with more energy, but the opposite actually happens. Your body starts to use all its resources to repair itself from the training cycle, and it leaves you feeling tired, sluggish, and weak. I am nine days out from my race and feeling like hell, but it's a good thing. Usually the last five days or so before the race, you start to feel better and are primed to go come race day.
All that being said, I swam a mile before work and felt like I was pulling a fuckin' boat.

Florida. Last thanksgiving there before the parents move back to Utah. Wife and me decided to take the bikes and hit Santos, Alifia, and Balm Boyette. Despite it being Florida I'm actually looking foward to upper 70s and something different to ride. Also some offshore fishing.Its all about variety man. Also my buddy is letting us use their Sprinter van, so there's that.
Yesterday I learned that “Jimmies” is a New England expression for chocolate sprinkles. And here I always thought the term referred to testicles.
Day one of my EMT recert starts at 8:30 an hour from now. I have been up since 3am putting out stupid bullshit fires in the office. Effing people need to use their brains. CEO included. Arrrrrg
Yeah. "that really rustled my chocolate sprinkles" make little to no sense.

Surprising amount of snow last night. School was cancelled for the girls, so full house here. Gotta fire up the espresso machine, then off to DMV. Filed police report last night down at the station. I guess this sort of thing happens enough that it is a selectable option in the drop down menu. Fucking crackheads.......
not specifically chocolate.
back in college a housemate had the spark plugs stolen from his motorcycle once. apparently they can be used as crack pipes.

Not anymore, unless you want to be called racist by a woke, albeit misguided, ice cream artist.
Multi-colored = sprinkles
Brown = jimmies
It is still undetermined whether or not this has racist origins.
growing up i learned that it's both.
Phone interview went well, and the nice lady said she has several positions she's considering me for, so that bodes well. Now I just have to wait until the week after next before I can expect to hear anything back.
In the mean time, the same company has a contract manufacturing position that they want to bring me in to interview for. I'm not 100% sold on the idea of being a long term contractor vs a full time employee.

Time to go fire up the new snow blower shortly that's sat untested since it was delivered just after the last snowstorm a month ago.
CSPD confirms my "new" plate is off a stolen car. DMV was shockingly painless, never even sat down to wait. Pro-tip; go to DMV on a blizzard day.
I wanna learn to drive a snow plow
Holy hell, looking forward to a short. Lots of stuff to do this weekend trying to get the truck together. Might do a 3 day trip somewhere, who knows.
But this project is making me crazy.
