Going riding. Showing buddies a spot up north that they haven't ridden yet. Hopefully the rock slabs aren't too wet. :brows:

Apparently parts of Toronto flooded yesterday. We're still under a rainfall warning here..

I'm not into intervention shows or the behemoth doctor but I do like this youtube series where they talk about the financial disasters people have created in their lives. That is the kind of panic and misery I can dig into.

May have a few bites on some used shit, particularly on parting out the spooky. @Pesqueeb
Hoping I can recoup the majority of what I have invested- may upgrade the drivetrain on the trainer bike because I’m not sure anybody else will want my weird aliexpress setup

Nick, why were you up so early?!

you don't need youtube, just check out my periodic state of the debt updates in my ride pics thread :D

/me is on call today as well. had requisite smol child x 2 snuggles this morning. I actually have one of the fellows on with me today (in the specific sense of the word, as in one of our 3 trainees who has finished residency but is doing this extra year with us before starting as an attending). what that means is my day will be more chill and/or he will draft me some cases for the moonlighting pile after my shift.

Finally found my backcountry fly set up,

Its an echo 8 piece 5 weight in a 1.5 ABS tube and a double arbor reel. One side of the reel holds a dry fly line, the other sides holds a full sinking line with sink tip for nymphing and streamers.

It was in the bottom of the ducati saddlebags the whole time.

Been a productive weekend. Made the garden and house look good for an open house and finally some people came by to look. New agent is better so far. Had a good ride today too. Pasta in the oven and a gin and tonic as an appetizer.

I haz the sad, but just don't think a whole other bike is in the cards for me at the moment. I suppose if I'm to do any sort of road bike thing, I ought to build up the Look I got from @stoney right before COVID.

off for a ride. cool thing, while pulling out my gear I spotted my Triathlon Singlet from racing 21 years ago. I think it fit me better now than then. For old times sake I am going to wear it on todays ride. And I am riding that same bike today too.

Fuck. My kid just put a scratch in our neighbor's car opening his door in the visitor parking.

It's the second damn time one of my kids has scratched this neighbors same car. My older boy scratched his brothers initials in it with a knife when it was brand new 4 years ago.

Remind me again why I have kids?

Fuck.
