effing alarm did not go off. I woke up 20 minutes before my first scheduled Dialysis pickup. I made it on time but functioning on no coffee really sucks. 90 minutes later and I am sipping down some really smooth Espresso

All is now right in my morning :thumb:

We may be out of fritters and the dogs are pissed.

Can we talk Christmas lawn decorations? The usual santa, snowman, winter animals, sure. But a winged pig? Yes, it has a Santa hat, so that's all you need now? Stick a Santa hat on it and now it's Christmas?

Dinosaurs, random dogs, squirrel, as long as it's got a Santa hat, legit.

In high school I dragged a ridiculous amount of Christmas lawn decorations back to my friend's house after a 3+ mile drunken trek across town, grabbing random shit from people's lawns across the way. I woke up to his mom yelling "where the fuck did all this come from?" because I had dumped them all over the floor in their house.

Me and the captain made it happen that night for sure.

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
Morning. Day 2 of Snowmageddon. Predicted 6-10" of snow and got over 30" My district has decided to do virtual learning on these snow days so I am teaching lessons via Google Meets in my cozy slippers from the comfort of my home. Good fun!

indoor ride
not sure if :disgust1: or :bad:

(i know they serve a purpose, but still...)

Cold here. (10°F) and still no snow :butcher:

Rode last night. It was too cold for the skinny wheel bike, so I rode the fat bike. Official bike trails were pretty much sheer ice from the riders that had packed down that one snowfall we got 2 weeks ago, which was followed by a thaw, then rain, then a deep freeze. But we only rode them for a short bit to get to non-bike trails that were quite good. Essentially rode up and over a ridge, did a loop at the end, then rode back down the ridge to the car. Lots of natural hips and rollers to pop off of. It was kind of fun. And the inch of snow/hoar frost made for a few drifty moments. I'd give it a 6/10 and would bang again.

We had stollen a 3 foot tall plastic Joseph one year. A buddy got all emotional because he thought we stole God, but it was just Jesus's step dad, so it was cool.

my neck hurts
Mine too. But mine's From sleeping funny.

Hannah was a pita this morning. Have a company all hands meeting w/ CEO today and one quick "how do I?" client meeting afterwards. Will probably spend most of today getting finances done so I don't have to worry about them over the weekend and maybe working on a new jig.
