Talked with boss last night who is trying to cover the meetings I'm not able to make Thursday because Oxycodone. Looks like Tuesday is going to be a long day as I pack two days of meetings into one, but the client is in RFP so we can't miss the day/time. He's probably going to be skipping half a day of our National sales conference to cover the day himself if we can't get approval from the client to skip and extend. As the national director of participant engagement (getting people to use their retirement plan), over half the conference is his content. My last manager was of the "you caused this, find a solution" variety vs. the "get better. Let me see what I need to do, to resolve any issues that have arisen"; it's kind of nice.

CT scan #3 this am and Urology appointment this afternoon. Still high as fuck on oxycodone and ready to start the taper off.

I'm bailing on tonights group ride because of all this rain. And it's cold. I don't mind riding in the rain, but screw the cold.


In other news, I just had someone drive straight at me going the wrong way, on a divided road. What the fuck?

There's some on the end
Punctuation != Wingdings

And for the record, I personally don’t care whether or not there are ‘dings... but if there be ‘dings my opinion is they should be creative. I also think they should be asymmetric so as to give ‘squeeb the heebee jeebees.

Fletcher's squamous cell cancer is on the move. It poked through the top of his mouth and bleeds sometimes. In other news, we're living on the lake this week.

This deserves its own thread. You know somewhere we can criticize what you are doing and why. Shit like that. Oh, and what year was your house built? Just curious..

Jeezus, dude. Just ask. I'd have told you Zorro would be a no-go. Fucking peanut butter mud over on that side...
We weren’t planning on it. Green Mountain was posted at the gate as very muddy so it was the alternate.

And now I know. That mud was absolutely ridiculous.

Wife is taking off for 10 days, so I'll be solo with the boys. They've been pretty tough lately, so this will be a challenge.

Luckily, "shed"-ing is now legal, and I've acquired some to help take the edge off if I need it...
