I rode my bicycle into work today. First time in quite a while. Survived the commute in, unfortunatly, my peach did not.
Sipping espresso in a lounge chair next to the camper looking at the clouds and listening to the birds
'Morning! Everybody got their coffee? Dogs have been poop walked? All settled in now? OK, let's do this shit.
I don't have a dog. The only poop I'm interested in dealing with when I wake up is my own.
I am not very good at sleeping anymore. I may need to figure out how to deal with that.
Present. Another hot one on tap. Almost got my electrical done on the van. Maybe it’ll be dry enough this week to actually ride a bike.
Probably because you clearly aren't answering your email.1200 unread emails in my inbox. For fuck sakes...
And the boss wants to meet at 10 for unspecified reasons.
Only the billionaires.
the millionaires need to suffer like plebes.
i won’t be leaving my basement from about 2:30 and onward.
maybe another night ride tonight...

Good morning!
Off this week, so today will be hanging around doing house type things while I wait for my derailleur hangers to show up. Been putting off riding cause I'm spoiled by dual suspension; round these parts you really have to train yourself for the pounding a hardtail will deliver, even in the tamer areas.

@Toshi .....is that you?
Just had a "what was that email to the team about coordinated marketing strategy from Friday afternoon about?" conversation. Laid out, nicely, the cluster fuck I had to deal with to which he said "Oh. I guess I needed to do a better job of indicating who was point on the plan. Sorry." He'll be sending out an email to the team with rep hierarchy per plan laid out, finally. Glad he's taking responsibility to some extent, but still feel bad throwing my colleague under the bus somewhat. He made it clear that "I wasn't" and this was something he'd been working on already.
Still frustrated because I'm playing catch-up, still.

Need coffee, bacon and some time in the woods.
Bike parts should show up today. Hopefully my cassette is not permanently stuck on the i9 hub. New hub body would be a little too speedy right nao.

Decided I should sell my tri bike. It just collects dust and takes up limited space in my garage.
Also finished the workbench less the final drawer. Started moving stuff from my shelves as I've been getting into stuff for other things. I have a lot more space now. At the rate I'm going, I should be able to relocate some of the shelves in front of Wifey's car lower, skis to where the bikes are flat against the wall, and bikes hanging on the now open wall space above Wifey's car. Space will make my garage more useable.

on the flip side do you know how much you can learn from under a bus?
That's kind of what we talked about. It's her first job when she's doing work that, beyond 1-1 relationship work also involves real marketing strategy. Most of us learn that in our 20's when sales is our career. She's not had to do it before, so she's learning at 55. It's just a rough spot because she's a good friend and she's already got a target on her back.
If it is a Blade then let me know.

A former teammate who got laid off sent a rather nice parting present for out former manager. An email to his boss and various executive detailing his misogynistic behavior. She was a strong willed outspoken woman who didn't suffer fools lightly. He called her a hot headed hormonal Sagittarius.
I too am hot-headed, outspoken and would even go as far to say both insulting and insubordinate to management and I was commended for 'shifting paradigms'.
Waiting for the fireworks.

Fucking 82 with 80% humidity. Walked the horse all over the grounds to loosen her back up I am at 9 miles on the fit bit. I need a goddamn beer
shift on, shifter.
i often get cited by our director of community relations as someone who has long been her partner in advocating for a more diverse collection and slate of exhibitions and programs. it makes me an equal mix of uncomfortable and satisfied.
did a decent amount of work today; picking up sushi now. planning some mountains time later this week...
