Same here. Sore back alarm clock this morning. Humph
Uncomfortable and awake early for no discernable reason.
I too hate the miserable existence that is modern life.
I need to find someone shoveling gravel in the sun. Watching that for 30 seconds resets my expectations.

Had a great night sleep. Feel great and going to ride my mtb later. I will also drink a beer after the ride.
title needs to be "in the basement...hiding bodies"

140 lbs of mattress arrive today. Then comes the joy of hauling out the old and lugging in the new.
Can't keep up with these acronyms. Da fuck is head congestion faster than light?
Somebody's posting amazon referral links on discord and I'm calling them out. "Like watching a hobo pick up shit covered pennies" is what I started with.
Raced my bike last night. Haven’t toed a starting line in ten years, it felt strange and yet familiar at the same time. I swear the clock they use for my runs has longer seconds.
Had a doctors appointment this morning. In my calendar I had it written down at location "A", at 9:00am. I got there at 8:30am, so just sat in the parking lot for a bit. While sitting there, I get a call from the doctors office saying I'm not there and that my appointment was at 8:30am.
So I stroll into the place and tell the front desk that I am here. They tell me that I'm supposed to be at another location. God dammit.
Something obviously got lost in translation, from when this was scheduled 6 months ago, then rescheduled by them 1 or 2 months ago and then the doctor no longer going to location "A". The lady on the phone asked if I could get to the other location in 5 minutes, to be there at 9am. LOL
Anyways, got it rescheduled for 1pm this afternoon. Got lucky that someone else cancelled. And they were going to charge me a "no show" fee of $50, if it didn't work out like that.
Good morning!
Great ride last night. It was hot and humid, but I'm not complaining. Better than snow. It was good to get one last fun ride in with our friend, before he leaves for Calgary. And another buddy is going to Vegas this weekend to get married. One friend showed up grumpy and had a hissyfit right at the start of the ride and then abandoned the group - his loss.
Anyways #2, time for coffee.
Four different DEI courses...
As a white middle aged male I'm a minority among my team. I think I'm good with diversity, can I just get a pass?

Crew coming out at 9 to finish the silt fence and then prepping to knock some rotten trees in the road tomorrow morning so I can continue excavating dirt n shit.
need to put up some construction fence around the property, way too many peeps cutting through for my taste.
fuckin' hell. day 4 of Covid.
I feel a bit better than yesterday, but symptoms are still very present: congestion, runny nose, nasty cough, headache. I have to make a go/no-go decision for my bike trip by tonight. I'm scheduled to fly tomorrow at 19:45. I feel like all my symptoms will have cleared out by Saturday, Sunday at the latest. But this trip is with 8 guys. Sharing hotel rooms, Air BnBs, and trucks. I really don't want to get them sick. Public Health guidelines say to wait 24 hours after symptoms clear out before coming out of isolation. My symptoms don't show signs of clearing out yet. tick tock mutherfocker.
with the looming pilots strike, Air Canada has given everyone the option of postponing or cancelling their tickets... it would be so easy... gah. can't friggin decide. I think I'll wait till 5pm today and make the call.

Morning Monkeys.
Called in this morning and was going to go test drive cars, but I'm totally not feeling it right now. I need to find a Porsche that isn't 3.5 hours away that I'm not going to buy to test drive. My gear is I spend 7 hours driving and it's meh. It might be awesome, but I have a feeling it's more meh than anything.
I could be wrong, just not willing to spend 7 hours to find out.

I feel like you've been talking about buying a new car for the past... 3? 4? years... is this a hobby you enjoy? or have I just missed it when you bought a new car and are now onto the next one... the thought of buying a car gives me hives, how people enjoy it is beyond me...Morning Monkeys.

No bullshit here. Been here 4 hours and not a single person has talked to me. Designing some new sugar skull themed bumpers for my wheel.
Aren’t there roads above and below your property? I bet folks are really appreciative of you opening up a short cut. You should start charging a fee.
Major suckage situation.
Isn't a big part of this trip doing some huge ass ride with huge ass climbs?
Even if the symptoms go away, you might be still dragging ass and not have a great time.
I'm all for sending it, but that'd suck to travel all that way, pay all that money and feel like poop the entire time.
have you polled your buddies to see what their thoughts are?
/here, workin', planning some sort of ride tomorrow....
and on the bullshit theme, sick of it all is in da house
I sold my car 2ish years ago and have only been seriously thinking the last couple of months because the truck is almost paid off. I will always look at cars, but actually getting something is different. Once the truck is paid off, that gives me options.
I might not get anything if I can't find what I really want, I'm a cheap fucker. But I do miss having something that's fun to drive. My truck is anything but fun.
And I enjoy the looking, not the buying. But I usually deal in cash, so it's usually pretty painless.
