Morning Folks.

I have yet been unable to tender my resignation as I have been unable to contact my boss, typical. We have a meeting today at 11:00. It should happen then, but I suspect he will cancel. It will go via e-mail if that is the case.

The timing is ironic. My shitheel coworker just got a promotion to principle engineer. He is very strong technically but straight up terrible at everything a principle is supposed to do.

Morning Monkies! That's all I got...

 

[eric strt6]

And winter returns. forecast: for the next ten days, rain heavy at times and high winds. Urban and small stream flooding possible. Time to dig out the goretex again, should be fun.

Coffee then off to drive ze short bus

Morning. Weather's crazy - 53F and pissing rain this morning, 32F and windy by 6PM today, down to 20F tomorrow morning. Also, I cannot seem to be able to accumulate two fucks to be eventually given about anything lately. I guess I need a vacation.

-53F and raining?!? How is this possible?!?

Mornin!

Had an all-hands 2 hour meeting yesterday that they only provided chairs for 1/2 the people. So I stood there for 2 hours fidgeting and not paying attention. Nailed it guys!

Pre-screen phone call this afternoon with the job I applied for yesterday. I intend to stress that I'm not an applicant, I'm an appliCAN.

More morning boot camp for the boys and I got the older one to come too. Running and soccer. More tomorrow. I have not done any running since the 90s and I am very happy the boys are only 5 and 8.

If you can eat a wrench, you can eat a ball!

RIP Patches.

In my college days there were certain events that would have led me to stare at your floor for hours on end.

It snowed here over night. Judging by my unplowed street, my town got about 6-8 inches. It seems that that is about the maximum amount of snow that the Subaru can handle. Almost got stuck backing out of the driveway, but when in doubt, throttle out!

Check out these ass-hats stuck at the bottom of my street. If only one of the 5 dudes told buddy who is stuck in the middle of the intersection to back up, he'd have no problem...How do taxi drivers drive the most out of anyone on the plane, yet they are the worst damn drivers?

Or, put the cardboard cut-out there without the I quit sign and wait to see if the pay cheques keep coming?

 

[I Are Baboon]

Good morning, you fine internet people. This afternoon's weather will be 32 degrees with 40 mph winds, and to the possibility of going for a road ride in that, I say "FTS."

Ahhh okay I just thought you were super bad ass

What a colourful way to do it!

You forget that his Subaru is from the lowered bro-dawg/flatbill camp.

I had a good rehearsal last night in lieu of caucusing. For the music people out there this concert is mainly a jazz-themed one but we have one legit/Latin piece that's written for C trumpets. One of the other guys in my section didn't bring his C so was transposing from B flat. This is normally easy enough but this piece is quick and has complex rhythms. He botched it royally, which is amusing since the group is usually so competent.

 

[SkaredShtles]

God... trumpet players are so catty.

 

[stoney]

Rocked the caucus out last night. Go Bernie Go! Wifey is home late tonight for slightly over 24 hours and then back out of town. Didn't get to work on my study material last night, so more time to be spent tonight.

Had a random dude at Haley's school stop me to say how nice and clean the M is. Always amusing.

Otherwise, work.

 

[Toshi]

Heh. He's a good player. Masters in trumpet performance, I believe. It was just a very uncharacteristic performance: not just bad, but really bad.

He was easily in his 30's son. Tends to draw in an older crowd that knows the kind of beast they're looking at. And the car too.

 

[SkaredShtles]

On a side note - drivers on the roads in Highlands Ranch are *noticably* more retarded than those on my former commute. Which seems odd, since the commute route is only slightly different.

I finally done quit.

When we went skiing last Saturday I went down pretty hard once and took the corner of a binding into the inside of my left knee. Got a pretty good bruise but it hasn't really bothered me until I got .5 mile into a planned 11 mile run this morning, and it was killing me. Super sharp pain ever 3rd or 4th step. I had to call it. Walked home and am now super bummed. I was at 14 miles a month ago, took a week off, and have been struggling ever since to get back up to 14. I find this setback incredibly disappointing.

Rest of day = house stuff. Fire weather watch again today because crazy winds, so probably wont spend to much time outside.

Pre-screen phone call this afternoon with the job I applied for yesterday. I intend to stress that I'm not an applicant, I'm an appliCAN.

I've never hired anyone before, but if I were to do so, you would immediately be disqualified for that.

Did you tell him that because it hardly ever leaves the confines of your garage?

Hard? What the fuck kind of yardsale allows you to hit your binding on your knee?

Also, I laughed.
