Mornin!
Trying to find the motivation to work this job knowing that I've already accepted another one. Just waiting to give my two weeks notice, hopefully tomorrow is the day.

I'm kind of liking this only working 5 days a week routine. I'm going fishing this weekend to avoid the visit from my mother in law.
Morning. I had a good ride last night, although our group was chased around the woods by a chopper that was circling above our heads. 
We shut down our lights and stayed in the dark for a few minutes and then it finally lost interest in us and flew away. Rain today, no riding.

"Somewhere over the rainbow" by Israel played on the radio this morning while I was getting my little guy ready. Took a few minutes to listen and cuddle, it was nice.
Skipped on a ride last night caus' I'm so frikken tired. It could well have been the last nice(ish) ride of the year, they're calling for rain/sleet/snow for the foreseeable future. This fall-back thing isn't working so well with the kids... 5am wake-ups suck.

Goddam the weather is borderline perfect. i think i'll do another "lunch" ride manana.
Wouldn't happen to have been the Fells would it? I did a night ride there 4-5 years ago with a buddy and there was a helicopter flying around with floods on, and police/dogs at just about every trailhead. Turn out they were looking for a missing girl.Morning. I had a good ride last night, although our group was chased around the woods by a chopper that was circling above our heads.
Had a good night of suburban riding, beer, tresspassing and poaching mcmansion community greenspace trails.
No hangover after beer and sake. My foot is doing much better after the podiatrist stuck a huge needle in my foot and injected cortisone Monday. Rain day so I miss my bike commute today.
We were perplexed they did not have any floods on, no lights whatsoever. They were not above the highways as they sometimes are. There was no search or fire or anything like that going on either. It was just weird.
Good morning, kind people.
More importantly, did you have to heat your ass this morning?
Morning Monkeys.
My car still isn't done, f@ckers. I got my awesome review yesterday and my boss made up all this stuff he thinks I did to make me sound like some sort of rockstar. I guess if it looks like he manages a bunch of rockstars it benefits him on his review, so it makes sense.

Run this morning. Chaperoning the daughters field trip to the zoo here in a bit.
Our last payment put us below 100k on the house. Feels like a milestone of some kind, just not sure what.
Ass-heat is a given these days. It's nice having the car in the garage--50 degrees ambient without frosty windows sure beats 35-40 + frost.
You had better toughen up, Buttercup. 
It's a KB Homes house. Probably was $250k brand new (10 years ago) in an expensive neighborhood. They clearly cut every corner they could... but that's ok since it's just a rental.
We're going to go with this for when we build: http://www.newtownbuilders.com/denver-aurora-new-homes-builder/solaris-ii-single-family-homes-at-conservatory-green/solaris-ii-single-family-homes-at-conservatory-green-from-the-mid-300′s/
Much nicer build quality from my layman's eye, 10' ceilings on 1st floor, 9' in basement, 9.5" walls with 2 x 4"s separated by an air gap, and enough solar on the roof to make it net zero energy.

I used my heated seats the other day for the first time. I had totally forgot it was on, I thought I pissed my pants the heat was so intense.
Today was such a waste of a day. Not sure why I even bothered going to work. I had one task lined up to complete for the assistant general manager and the guy who was supposed to assist me (and said he would) completely flaked out all day. I would have done the task myself, but I'm not the owner of the equipment. Ugh

Wait a second...
You're gonna pay over $400K to live on the east side of Denver?

With the lot premium for a big lot (rare in Stapleton) and the extra features (basement is extra, etc.) it'll probably be damn near $600k all said and done.Wait a second...

A short commute is worth a lot in terms of quality of life for me, having spent some years in places where it wasn't possible.
FTFYWait a second...

I don't think you could FIND a house that expensive in KS...
My "boss" was let go today. I have mixed feelings about it - he is incapable of rubbing two thoughts together and was a disaster in front of customers, but he is a very nice, kind hearted, and generous person.
You should offer to take another sabbatical, and allow him to finish out the year.
You gonna build it right on top of your neighbor as well?
Quit that job and come with me to New Zealand.
Nah. Either the company shows evidence of getting their shit together or I walk. This is one of a few pieces of evidence that they're at least trying to get their shit together. One way or another, I'm retiring next year.
That is one of the most tempting proposals I have heard in many years.
I have access to a tug boat.
ewgay
JBP 's not gay....
bringing clothes tomorrow to work and leaving them there. I'll ride into there on Saturday for nice freedom, hompfully weather permitting. My BMX bike was repaired today.
