Yesterday was pretty lol worthy. Old boss is still denying that he thinks I’m actually leaving.
I’m not going today because. . . I got shit to do.
Going to plant more of this stuff later.

Weather looks good today, but not great tomorrow afternoon for outdoor bicycling.
Wanted to get out on a big ride, but no way could I have done this morning after travelling with work all week.

Sear you, sly!
Re: swim, I got 2600 yards done this morning. That was my 4th swim this week, thanks to being unable/unwilling to ride. Shitty weather today so I will hop on the office treadmill at some point since I'm in the office.
Morning Monkeys.
Had a great meeting with the boss yesterday. I've been getting my ass kicked with this automation and it turns out I found a bug, it wasn't me.
He seemed very happy with what I have and even asked if I'd been willing to give the lab monkey something to do since he's been idle. I can't help but feel like I'm way behind, but I am doing shit nobody has done, so who knows how long it's supposed to take? I need to relax.

Dude, relax. You're doing great. You're doing shit no one else has ever done, and it's making a difference.
You're one suave fuck.

This is where PTSD comes in handy. Ruth knows that I get triggered by crowds and loud noise. I don't deal well in theaters, concerts, and restaurant (unless it's outdoor seating at the latter two, so I don't get asked to go
So Wednesday my sister invited me to ride one of the D&H rail trails with one of her friends, so I rode with them; friend turned out to be a pretty damned attractive woman with whom I'm riding with again next Wednesday, maybe at Slate Valley Trails...
Futhermucker, both of the sourdough bread loaves fell while cooking. They got way overproofed overnight, and actually got too light.
Never had that happen before.

CEO is visiting my department next week and I got asked to put together a presentation for a project I am not due to start until next month in 2 hours. Just my managers struggling to make it look like they have a fucking clue what this org is doing. And if you don't have a clue? Ask someone else to fake it for you.
At first I read this as “CEO is visiting my apartment next week”, and I thought that whatever problem you had at work would either get much better or much worse.
How far out are you from retirement?
Mother beautiful: just watched an SUV try to take a right turn on red without stopping or slowing and slam into a police car. Double win
I am chained to the corporate machine until I am 65 for little else than health insurance, so another 16 years.
Although I do have a scheme to just become a professional full time student, tuition + student health insurance is cheaper than actual health insurance for an old fart. If I decide to go that route I only have about 5 years to go.
Watching the construction by work, it's funny to see the difference in ability. The scrub in the little machine on the left dumps half his bucket before he gets to the truck. Homeboy on the right has a flipped bucket and is scooping out of the truck, then laying it out evenly into the foundation.
55 degrees and drizzling here. Just like Phoenix.
Think I’ll drink some coffee and read with the dog and cat.

Tate can read my mind. All bets are off on the cat, he probably reads Nietzche before going out on a killing spree.
