About to do a donut run for the girls.

Put LED bulbs in the Subaru last night when I was done with the girls. Very nice inside now. Planning car focus next weekend. Should finish basement and remaining main floor baseboards today. Internet still doesn't work. Starting to think the insulation guy might have stepped on a wire while working in the attic and fucked things up.

Working Sunday. I was not supposed to, but the person who was apparently got scheduled for 12 days in a row including 3 of 4 weekend days. As I do not want to see her driven to quitting from our practice I took this day, which is slightly rough since I was on 5-10 PM last night.

On the upside, though, I have earned good citizen points, and I'm fast enough that I should be able to get the call-shift required work done as well as a good proportion of my share of Monday morning's outpatient cases. Therefore I will earn myself the ability to come in quite late tomorrow.

I am going to base the first half of my day on the approach posted by @CrabJoe StretchPants

Followed by a long drive, with hopefully light ski traffic so we don't take forever to get home.

Lazy Sunday. Breakfast burrito with sauteed mushrooms, peppers, and jalapeno, topped with avacado. Gonna clean the kitchen and make pasta dough. Might do some bike shop cleaning but that's about the extent of my day.

Got dragged around the woods real good by @Adventurous and I loved every second of it. Though I am clearly out of shape again. I can blame some of it on all the work yesterday and lack of eating anything this morning due to running late, but I need to get back in form.

Get wide bars they said, you'll be cool they said:

Heck yea!

Mellow Sunday ahead. I may do some bike maintenance and get ready for spring. Trails will melt out this week, and ski season is winding down.

Does this deserve its own thread?
We should all send in pics and have one person in charge of posting a series, and then we guess which pic goes with which monkey.
Intriguing concept. Why not a small entry fee and proceeds go to who guesses correctly.

HEY ffs. I ran a 10-ish mile "virtual race" this morning at 6:54 pace. Acceptable but not my best. It's tough running solo races. It'll be nice when I can race actual people again. I am looking at May for that. It is dumping rain now. I am thinking of climbing onto the bike trainer to loosen up my stiff legs a bit.

Got out and swam in the surf today, which I haven’t done in ten years. I was a little freaked out by the waves at first, but got the hang of it a little. I’ll never be a good surfer, I have accepted that fact. Humbling. Kiddo had a blast.

Upgrading something at work and after restarting the thing, it has failed to come back online. Have to go into work, dammit. :(
Fixed my stuff.

Now to go grocery shopping, pickup some beer and continuing rebuilding the bikes.

Would have liked to go for a ride today, but its been raining all day anyways, so not a total loss.

perhaps all entries must be submitted on cardboard. Otherwise we’d recognize @Toshi ’s bidet and @stoney’s gold filigree on the porcelain.

Perhaps require all entries to be made into a readily available postal shipping box. Sets a standard for size and easily sent in to resolve any disputed authenticity.
