Deck is effectively done. Wifey just went out to look at it and threw a shit fit because it's too many colors. Surface is a deep brown, base is 3 colors: cedar posts, white pine main beams, and treated joists that are reddish. Staining the damn thing was the initial cause of the failure, so I'm hesitant to stain it in general because it doesn't need to be stained.
should have been 100% cedar. ///Amateur

I'm a moron. My foodie friends convinced me to try a 3 500 000 SHU burger. Pure capsaicin plus one of those idiotically strong peppers. Basically did it because a friend decided to do it and I haven't seen her and the rest of the crew for quite some time. Unfortunately the burger was like a sponge so eating it was worse than it should be. It was also so hot I drank 0.5L of full fat cream and 0.5L of vanilla ice cream to numb the pain. Will not do again. There are better ways of meeting your friends.

Did you turn the deck off and turn it back on again....? Sometimes that helps.

y'all are some low-budget mofos .... I build my decks and fences with only the finest teak.

Teak, what is this, deck building on a budget?

If you want something that will demonstrate your wealth and superiority, as well as stand the test of time, marble is the only way to go.

It is snowing, again. I thought it was all worked out where that would be over and we can move on now. At least every time the snow falls now, it only sticks for a minute and then disappears. The south-east facing slopes are all brown, and the south-west facing slopes are still somewhat snowy. All north slopes are socked in hard. Fucking eh. Not to mention the drifts.

Time for spicy sexy time!!
I'm not sure my ladyfriend would approve. Especially after not sleeping to 4AM because my insides were exploding. Seriously screw Pepper X. The female friend I did it with felt event worse. Next time I'll just pepper spray my ass to make the process faster.
