my dumpsterfiremobile might finally be out of the shop today. whoopee doo
headed to work to put in a moderate amount of effort. I've been off the trainer for two days which makes me sad, but I'm not really training for anything other than enjoyment with a goal. Had a cold for two days but it looks like it's turned a corner so maybe this afternoon or tomorrow back to it.

i too have been having issues with my left hip.Left leg, specifically hip, acting up.
I slept like a brick then woke with only minor tenderness at jab#3 site. Thoroughly enjoying my espresso this morning. For a change they assigned me the Hayward / Freemont route, hopefully the tamale lady will not be sold out by the time I swing by her spot
Ugh, I have that morning after ‘hit by a truck’ feeling. Rode three absolutely jammin‘ Pass laps last night with a fast crew. Hit jumps I haven’t hit in years due to the obvious competency of the train. At the bottom there is a small stretch of road that is usually a sprint, and usually with a little drafting. Told my friend Gene I was on his wheel, ok, fine. Then just as I am a few inches back, he slows down a little, and goes into a ‘super tuck’, and manages to kick my handlebar.
You can imagine what happens next, down I go on the pavement at sprinting speed.
This was all observed by the crew, who instantly came up with a nickname that will stick, he is now known as ‘Genius’.
All good with me, just bumps and scrapes on all extremities, ruined gloves, and a ruined nice work shirt. SO glad I was wearing pads and gloves!

But *both* times I was through Fairplay recently they have been closed.
Pretty far to just get tamales... but perhaps worth it?
great, now I want tamales. I do have a kicking tamale joint 2.1 miles a way. I have no idea why they don't offer them on their menu but a bar a block away sells some amazing frozen tamales. I think the chef makes them because he wants to make them dammit.
I decided to embrace my inner love for new music gear and I went big yesterday. Awaiting shipping notice.
What is a ‘sweet’ tamale?
Man now I want mexican food but I am chillin with my foot in the air. Gonna be a few days.
Hmmn. Never had one of those. I could get down with a cinnamon apple crumble tamale…
I too am suffering from left-hip-itus... Chiro helped, figures the joint is wearing out....
Here.
Son turns 18 today, I now have a tennant.....
Just got off the phone w HD customer service. 4 of my new garage cabinets have been missing for 5 weeks now. Finally started getting properly frustrated and talked to one of the sr customer service guys in the store, who was able to get an expedited ticket open for me.
Talking to the phone rep today, apparently 3 have been at the store this entire time. The order was put in by the store, but over the phone, and they had typed in my email incorrectly (P instead of T), so I never got notification. Every time I was there, nobody realized the order was partially filled. So... She gave me another 15% off that part the order (which was already discounted 25%), to account for the stream of fuck up's. Garage organization cost has now dropped to $1600 vs. normal priced $2700.
And an added bonus, I'm getting to pass other good stuff (tool chest, workbench, storage, old bike parts & bikes) to friends and charities who can use it vs. tossing it.

In other construction news, our rear deck/hot tub/fence/landscaping project is turning out to be almost $100k, and three months late, with a shitload of fuck-ups and sub-standard work.
Joy!
Joy!
If you only had a truck you could handle all that basic hauling and manual labor yourself.
Unh-hunh, sure.
I did get lunch for the different crews once…

The joy of homeownership in JH. Where paying the kid to mow the lawn costs $250.. amiright?
Hello monkeys! New tires arrived yesterday so I installed them and went for a quick test run at the suggested minimum PSI of 35. I thought meh, too much air. This morning I discovered I mounted both tires backwards.
That ‘kid’ probably has a website and a marketing manager.
Ha. I wonder what the going rate for kid with lawnmower is. Used to be $20 gets a regular lawn mowed. Your lawn should be easy though.
1/10th of an acre, with a 2000 sq. foot house, and a few sheds, I mow in 20 minutes!
