currently dry but supposedly heavy rain for the next two days. So far the Pineapple express has stayed north of us.

Espresso is kicking in. guess I should go to work

rather try and finish off some of the ribs that we BBQ'd last night and drink beer, oh well ...

Got a little colder which means more sun. Sun is already so much stronger you really feel the heat from the sun inside the house. Made for a nice bike ride to and from work. The new bike really has improved the joy of commuting. I put some nice 35c road tires on it. They are much nicer in the city then the gravel tires that came on the bike and quite. Only negative has been the rims and how difficult it has been to get the tires to seat evenly. So happy I finally invested in a better commuter.

At work. Someone changed something yesterday, which triggered a bunch of alerts that they have obviously ignored. So now I get to go fix whatever they did. Le sigh.

Spotted two hawks on the way.

I hope the snow stops and it gets warmer later, as predicted, so that I can change the oil in the car without freezing.

if you all have some idle cash lying around unallocated today and the next few days might be a good time to dollar cost average in some purchases to your taxable accounts. things are on sale, after all.

@stoney is probably fielding myriad phone calls from people wanting to do the opposite. you buy when things are on sale, people, not sell...

I have no idea where I am
Going to throw some weight on my back and climb some small hills. Will be out of cell service and will not be able to text anything ridiculous to Honey Badger while she’s visiting her mom. Hate missing an opportunity to make her lol at inappropriate times. :D

Just stepped in the door from Hawaii with a very nice tan

Had some time to chill on the beach, and do the touristy thing since it was the first time on the island and not being on military orders.

Polynesian Culture Center is a must, very well oiled Mormon machine
Bishop Museum is a must, the Koa and Mahogany wood carved weapons and tools are fascinating
The Chief Engineers tour of Missouri was in my top three if you dig the techy stuff
Pearl harbors sights and attractions are always reflective

We did an airbnb in Waikiki that was a block from the beach and rented a convertible camaro, def the way to go

Got delayed in Seattle last night due to snow, didnt get into Eugene till 2am, slept for a couple hours and drove to the coast this morning.

In other news,

Finally have a building permit for the house on the hill. Advanced apologies to toshis parents for the impending noise and calamity about to transpire on the hill.

I have largely trained my folks well already. Plus HNW clients tend to not overreact.
