'Morning. I was out early again in the cold morning dark for a 5 mile run. 22 degrees. I had to wear the winter clothes for the first time this season...pants, jacket, thicker gloves, and a fleece hat. Whether it's 0 degrees or 20 degrees, the clothes won't change too much until next spring. 7 more miles to run on the post-work schedule this afternoon.
Cold and windy in St. Louis. 
Flying home tonight, to get two days of rain, cold and windy.

Shit on a stick it's windy this morning. Totally negated the fact that I raked up mounds of pine needles last night from my driveway.
we are adjacent to a municipal airport. i hope someone crashes a helicopter into the building.
I had a 5'er planned for this morning, but I think I did something bad to my back putting the plow on the work truck yesterday. Sweet Jesus am I uncomfortable.
"mental health day", please.
Happy Wednesday! I went out with a friend last night for some winter beer tasting. More and more these days I like more in depth conversations than small talk. It's nice to really get to know peeps. Does that just come with age?
Night ride last night. As a result my fucking shoulder hurts like hell. Might have to go see a doc about this one.
Working through PT right now for my shoulder.
my backpack's got jets
I dislocated the damn thing 3 times over the last 20 years. As long as I lifted in the winter it never bothered me. However it now feels like something "let go"
Cheesy sausage grits, fried eggs over easy, and coffee this morning. Still hacking up green lung butter for the past few days, pretty sure I got some sort of chest crud / funk / sickness from spending most of last Friday wading through waist-deep pools of frozen water — I went canyoneering for the first time. In Moab, in November, right after a bunch of precipitation. But oh boy oh girl, was it totally worth it.
Mmmm... winter beer. And yeah, it probably (maybe?) comes with age.
Thumbs up for the night ride, not for the shoulder.
I have a small Hill-Sachs fracture in my right humeral head, from having dislocated that shoulder innumerable times. Such is the way of lax joints.
What is the difference between an orthopedist, and an orthopedic surgeon? Who should I go see. Don't want the hassle of wasting my time with a GP visit that will ultimately be an appointment making session.
In my mind they are the same, but again we live in a world where chiropractors advertise themselves as Dr. Soandso... If unclear I'd just outright ask before scheduling.
This just confirms even more that there is something wrong with you.
Morning Monkeys.
Got word 3 folk got cut, last days are Friday. While I will be happy to have an office to myself, I fear it will be backfilled with more of the same. I still have a job (for now).

Damn, nice trip @Full Trucker !!
Headed to Tahoe next week to start off my winter ski-bumming it. I will have an epic pass plus my pass in vegas which has free days all over the southwest.
This is going to be the 'Winter of TN®'.

We should have a competition.
I had a similar issue (multi-directional dislocation, torn and or pulled tendons, worn cartilage) and the Ortho Dr. said I needed surgery. I opted for PT instead, which helped a lot. However, the most beneficial improvement came when I discovered that the arm rests on my computer chair were actually pushing my shoulder up, making it much worse. I had to modify the chair to get the arm rests down far enough. Seems most computer chairs are designed for fatties. Now its completely healed with the need for cutting.

I'm pretty sure that I would win.
Warning pity party for one :
Ok, so I haven't been riding much this week and dayum do I want to. On Saturday I had a little pancake accident and burned the inside of my thumb pretty good. Melted the epidermis completely. The blister that formed was something out of a sci-fi flick. Had to drain it several times a day for the first two days. Last night the dead skin tore open and is now nice and tender.
Stuff like this usually doesn't keep me off the bike. But being that I work with my hands and I'm backed up with orders and still need to produce inventory for the cases, best to play it safe. Maybe tomorrow I can ride..
Gaw, being an adult just blows sometimes.

I'd love the Mike Muir version of that.
That salsa Verde with habanero is hurting so good.
