Does he live in Manchester?
Morning all. Celebrating my 48th go around the sun today by heading up to watch Syd play in her first college field hockey game. There will definitely be a maple creemie in my future!
WTF are they doing, flying to Yurp every week to watch their team?
Seattle Sounders Fan.Does he live in Manchester?
He came into work last week joyfully describing a game with 4 goals. I asked hom if the score was 4-0, the answer was yes.
Better than the normal 1-0 I guess.
Sounds like a real barn burner
Sounders, he has seats for himself and his sons. His wife has season tickets for Seattle Rein, which is in addition to the aforementioned budget.
Makes golf look like a good idea.

Fluid changes done and it was ~$100 less than I had estimated.
Sitting at everyone's favourite place, Starbucks, listening to this shitty music. Just need the sun to go up a few more inches and then I'll be able to read my laptop screen.
Waiting here, as I'm getting the fluid changed in the car's transmission, haldex and rear diff. JOY.
Horrible sleep last night, I could go for a nap right now.
Man, the Starbucks patrons are a trip.
for this year, for 5 skiers:
$3,885 in passes (Ikon Base Plus--would have been cheaper but for going for Plus to get Taos days that we'll use over spring break)
I guess I'll count some new skis, sure. Didn't have to get any of these strictly.
$1,956Devo x 2 kids (Mariko's going to just ski with us): $3,950 including the work deposit that we could work off if needed.
$1,200 in post-stay cleaning costs for our place.
maybe $100 in tolls for the season. let's call it $2k in food to be generous.
I guess your back of napkin isn't bad. but again this is for 5 of us, could be ~$7k cheaper if we did the base pass, no new skis, and no Devo. and it doesn't account for the mountain house appreciating over time--with that in mind skiing really makes me money, yes...
when we end one of our owner-occupancy blocks then it gets a paid-by-us-from-revenue clean before the next rental group comes in. this should happen 3x over the season iirc (as we make it available for winter rentals over winter break, Presidents Day week/weekend, and then end of season/spring break).
Probably not an option.for $400 a crack, I'd clean my own house.

Yeah, not an option. The cleaning fee being that high (has gone up ~2x over past few years) does make it simpler in a sense: it doesn't make financial sense to take that hit and rent out at low off season midweek rates. So we just reserve the whole block and pay the cleaning fee once, only concentrating on high value dates.
Currently waiting a flight home and stuck at DFW. I’d like to apologize to Heathrow for all the awful things I said about it. I’d take that airport over this one any day.
Solar components arrive via fedex freight, 11 panels took a fork right through the stack. now in claims hell
some minimum wage dock worker whose forklift cert is questionable
Funny, I really have come to like DFW, now that I have pretty much the whole place memorized. The rail shuttle is fast and efficient.
Cream cheese, lump crab meat, garlic powder, soy sauce and green onions. Ratio is 50% crab meat. Seal in wonton wrappers, rest for ten minutes, then fry at 350 in peanut oil. Serve with Thai chili sauce.
Busy day yo.
Took a few customers to a tour at our production facility and walked seed corn fields. Pretty good day. Customers were impressed and pretty stoked.
I'm werked
It took 5 hours to unpack, inspect, and store all the solar components, hired help was needed to move the 500lb batteries

Trying a new thing, no caffeine after night walkies at 5. See if my sleep is any better or maybe I'm just screwed. See if my head doesn't explode..
i sure hope so!
Zero caffeine after 1000 hours, thank me later
