Morning !! Nice knowing I saved over $1000 by replacing the cooling unit in the RV fridge vs buying a new one.
Espresso how I love thee, let me relish the sips

Had to cancel our baby shower tomorrow; losing the venue was the death knell for that whole plan. My MIL offered up her church, but neither of us are church people, so that didn't feel right.
Guess I'll do car maintenance instead. Haven't had a chance to get any of that done.
Howdy do neighborinos

Having a coffee on the porch, enjoying the clearest morning in a while, and hoping the smoke clears even a little bit more throughout the day. Future wife is heading to Crested Butte today after work to do wedding planning stuff with her sister, and she’s taking the dogs. I foresee much high country bicycle riding for me this weekend. And also some wedding preparation tasks, as we’re 23 days from our impending nuptials.
Another hot and humid day on tap here. The heat wasn't quite so bad for my 10 mile run this morning, but the humidity was awful. I finished my run dripping wet. I had the track to myself for nine miles before somebody else showed up, which is unusual...there are usually at least a few other hobby joggers and/or walkers there and I kind of like having company.
Wife took Psycho Dog to work today. lololol what's the worst that could happen.......

Went to a fundraiser at the local brewery.

she sounds grumpy. you should start secretly microdosing her. or you.
epidural last night. sore today. blargh. at least maribor is this weekend, so there will be DH racing to watch.
my employee does for initial job screenings. they also have a "random" policy, but in all the years i've worked there have never heard that anyone was actually subject to it.
you could be in there farting too. just sayin'
'Round here (CO) everybody all gettin' their panties in a bunch 'cause it's $3/gal. Should be $7/gal, IMO.Also: gas prices continue to rise and its now at $1.41 for a liter.
Driving back from the Collegiates/Elbert last weekend I needed a few gallons to give me some safety in case of traffic. Didn't stop in LV as I thought the station near I-70 and Copper would be cheaper. I think it was $5.10/gal for 87...'Round here (CO) everybody all gettin' their panties in a bunch 'cause it's $3/gal.

one of the kittens has been getting lethargic and wasn't eating as much. changed his food, which helped and he started to perk up and be more active, but today he was back to being lethargic, and my wife checked his gums and they weren't fully pink like his brothers (not a good sign). she's on the way to the vet with him now. ugh.
So I finally caved and ordered new brakes. I’ve been going round and round on this. There is objectively nothing wrong with my Code RS (200 rotors), but they are just ‘meh’. They have no personality, and I hate that they use dot and not mineral. I’ve moved to using full resins to make them feel (IMO) nicer but still…
I rode a couple of bikes with new Shimano XT recently and I really like them. I got out my old hardtail which has old XT 4 pots with resins on too, and I like those better too. On the basis of this I started googling around for the new XT 4 pots. However they are hens teeth atm.
So then I found Magura MT5 eStops on super special. These are basically slightly beefier 5s with metal levers, rather than the CF levers people seem to hate. Trigger pulled. I might make them into XT levered Shiguras which lots of people seem to love. I’ll put Goodridge hose on them and stuff too. Also ordered the super performance pads, which were $$, we shall see.

Sorry dude. We put down two old cats last year, it sucks. Somehow we now have three now though, so maybe you have that to look forward too?
We got something arranged but holy hell. The things we do for a little pussy.
Sorry to hear that. Your vet offer the treatment?
arrived at snowshoe by 12:30 with the old man crew. checked into house. went to village. bough lift tix. waited out thunder delay until 1:45. got in 6 laps before next thunder shutdown. one wreck that pulled down my kneepad and attacked my knee. drank beers. drank tequila out of giant rubbermaid pitchers. heckled people walking/riding by. out for dinner and more beers. shot the shit with the fucking legend missy giove while walking home. back to the casa for more beers and heckling passers by. sleepytime...
What a nice Friday. Did a bunch of job networking, had an unexpected first round interview, helped My Love pack to visit her sister for the weekend, knocked out a nice little ride, ate a burrito, hung out with friends that were playing an online word-guessing game with some other friends, and now I’m home in my p’jams #porchdrinking and all this without getting in a car.
I don’t say this lightly… I want to party with you, cowboy.arrived at snowshoe by 12:30 with the old man crew. checked into house. went to village. bough lift tix. waited out thunder delay until 1:45. got in 6 laps before next thunder shutdown. one wreck that pulled down my kneepad and attacked my knee. drank beers. drank tequila out of giant rubbermaid pitchers. heckled people walking/riding by. out for dinner and more beers. shot the shit with the fucking legend missy giove while walking home. back to the casa for more beers and heckling passers by. sleepytime...
