Good morning, my lovely pandemic friends! Ran five miles this morning...cold, wet, and windy, but a decent run as these things go. Today is FOOD DELIVERY DAY!!! Wife adds a ton of extra stuff to do the order since Shop Rite tends to have about a 30% "not in stock" rate on these delivery orders, so she tries to account for that.
Time to do some work, I guess. I've got enough busywork to help make this day go by fast.

Mornin!
Sneaked out for a ride yesterday afternoon, and 98% of the ride was free and clear, with 2% still a quagmire. This seems like a reasonable percentage to not feel bad for riding wet trails.
Pin swap on the Chesters was a success. Moving from 10 to 12mm pins has granted an acceptable amount of grip to prevent my feet from being bounced off pedaling through the chunk.

Mornin'.
I too rode yesterday, but just a short lunch ride. I might get out again today. Otherwise coffee, work and isolation.

Been at work since 4 this morning doing Dialysis runs. Schedule is packed today, good thing I had a triple espresso to kick things off. Supposed to hit 80 this afternoon which is perfect beer and hammock in the shade weather
Reported @realDonaldTrump as a Twitter Spam Account this AM. Reason? 'Let's swallow what's under the Kitchen Sink'
Imagine if every time you said something, every news organization in the world runs headlines like "LOOK HOW FUCKING STUPID THIS GUY IS LOL"
I feel this, as my personal Anxiety News Network does this 24/7. Very unflattering coverage for sure.
Next on PANN, did I just hold eye contact for too long? An exercise in overanalysis. We'll be right back.
i should set up the tripod with my DSLR and remote to get pictures of the fox when he runs by
Me: Did you know the T Rex had feathers?
Stranger: Who are you again?
A platypus is the only animal to produce both milk and eggs making it a great source for portable omelettes
The males have venomous spines on their back legs. Don't pick up a platy.
Poop three.
Has anyone had any funky shipping experiences lately? I have a package pending with both Canada Post and FedEx, where both have an expected delivery date, but no shipment updates other than "your package has arrived at the shipping origin". The one package had an expected delivery of wednesday and is only going across the city.

oatmeal with PB and a handful of raspberries and blackberries.
Yes. Just about every package I've shipped or that's been shipped to me has done some tracking acrobatics these past few weeks. Tis teh covids, all up in yo' scanners.
Amazon stuff still being thrown at my front door...
Talked to a good friend from Virginia last night. His mother has been suffering from dementia since the beginning of the year. Their in house nurse help stopped from the Covid. Buddies dad seems to have cracked from the stress of taking care of his wife and is showing strong symptoms of dementia. They are both rolling along struggling to survive with no idea there is a pandemic. Everytime one of the kids shows up to help they disappear. My buddy gets the occasional call from his father on how to use the GPS to find their way home.
get it girl!
coffee. dabs. internet rounds. then tele-therapy & after that uploading stock footage to sell, designing a fanny pack, more dabs & then a heroic dose of cannabutter.

Yay - Lawnmower time. 
Here. I had to charge the Bolt yesterday for the first time in a month. For 45 miles...
Got a bunch of meetings today planning around a solar install and painting the house. Wifey wants to use a chunk of the M funds to install built-in's in the family room, to which I might capitulate. First step to the AMG in 3 years. *come on oil trade!* Her company is giving us the 80" TV (that's how big she's recalling it as; it's fucking monstrous) from their sales center, so that's going to be put in as well.

Yesterday was day 1 of having the heating turned off.
I reset the clock this morning and turned it back on as it's only 63 in here...

yeah, my mom has been slipping that direction for a few years and is apparently having a hard time dealing with the change in routine and really grasping what's going on in a serious way.

in other news, it's BLUNCHTYME!
Grounds for the death penalty IMOI just heated my tuna steak in another depts microwave.
I agree but they won't even look me in the eye. Sit there and huff tuna steam, bitch.
Last time that happened to me I threatened to crop dust the perpetrator for all of eternity.
