Symmetry is off. Hmfph.
Skied yesterday with friends, we need snow but much fun was had.
Car wasn't running smoothly, I guess I need to get that checked.
Coffee and a ton of work today, gotta get a final bit for my SS gift and ship too.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

Repairing a Hoosier cabinet, which is currently strewn across the dining room.

UA audit today. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the engine that got destroyed here last week.

[gonefirefightin]

Got all the RMSS tidbits and morsels together yesterday and all wrapped this morning. Will run down to the brown store and fight all the Karen bosses to get this thing off. Spent waaaaay too much but it should make for some interesting content in threads.

Details regarding engine destruction, plz...

 

[Pesqueeb]

Details regarding engine destruction, plz...

Long story, short:

An equipment failure led to approx12-14ft of a 20ft long heavy duty air supply hose being ingested by #1 engine of a A319. Made a hell of a mess, engine had to be changed, took almost a week. $$$$$$$

DSO decided that at 3:57ayem it was time to be let outside to poop...

 

[stoney]

Wind decided it was time to wake me up. Not too busy today, so catch-up.

 

[eric strt6]

Still raining and windy out. Gotta make a morning transport from Pleasanton to Stanford Medical Center in San Mateo County at 0830. Should be loads of fun going across the bay on the San Mateo Bridge in these conditions. If its too windy I will need to take the land route though San Jose Oh joy

But first I must consume the all important Espresso

 

[sunringlerider]

The sun is up
At work. I put creamer in my coffee today. Not sure why, haven’t done that in years. It’s ok.

 

[Toshi]

bro

how’s the squeaky car after lubing every orifice repeatedly?


/me is working this morning from home, but annoyingly this also includes noon conference today instead of wrapping up around 11

 

[6thElement]

In good news the sunset is later today than it was yesterday, so more time to sneak in rides after work before it's too dark.

 

[Adventurous]

Work is workin. Coffee is delicious. Realized I never completed my claim for paternity leave benefits, so I'll have a decent holiday "bonus" coming my way shortly.

Doing a pre-closing walk through later. Going to grab some measurements and start preparing ourselves for getting things move-in ready.

 

[canadmos]

Ugh I am feeling the winter blues today (lets be real, longer than just today) or maybe its just straight up depression.

Need to really get on top of some things, personally and here at work. We have a plant shutdown for the week after Christmas, which I am looking forward to. Not really looking forward to some of chaos that the holidays bring.

 

[AngryMetalsmith]

Hmph indeed.

 

[I Are Baboon]

Good morning!! LMAO. I ran 7 good miles this morning after a poop delay.

How many miles did you run before the poop delay?

Possibly, but I highly doubt he could refrain from smearing it on the walls or throwing it at innocent passer bys

Still squeaky. I think it's coming from the drain or something in front of the windshield. When I use the windshield washers repeatedly, it stops squeaking, and my psyche is at ease...but then it dries by the drive home and again I am tormented. I guess i'll try blasting some silicone spray in that tray to see if it will help. Not sure what else to do. Seems like my MPG is going up from how slippery my car is though.

I would expect nothing less from a Baboon.

Common sense really, Baboon.....RM....Poo......the lounge......Even a new member could figure that one out.

Oh, that’s what you meant. So not a reference to German bedroom activities ?

solstice is next tuesday

Cant rule out a Cleveland steamer, rusty trombone, Dirty Sanchez, Alabama hotpocket, Cincinnati bowtie, or even a Portuguese breakfast.

 

[jonKranked]

fuck everything

 

[I Are Baboon]

How many miles did you run before the poop delay?

NONE! I drove five minutes down to the rail trail, only to get there and realize I had some unfinished business, so I drove back home to take care of that, then drove back down to the trail. 15 minutes round trip, probably cost me a couple of extra run miles since I need to be done by 7:00 AM on these office days.

 

[johnbryanpeters]

solstice is next tuesday

Sunset changes first, then minimum daylight hours on the solstice, then sunrise changes, I have January 6th on my calendar.

 

[slyfink]

Back pain is back. woke me up at 6:30.

kid has sniffles. no fever and no cough, so he still went to school, but I will be going to pick up a home test, just in case.

sunny and mild here today, so there's that.

Haley bot her first investments this morning. Moved $185 from her savings account and bot AAPL and MSFT.

Also told her she's 8th to Hadley's 4th in kid karts this morning and after her swoon of knowing where she's at (she's been asking non-stop and finding where she sits weekly), she got this evil look in her eyes. Somebody's got a rabbit...

It's her money, her UTMA/UGMA acct. I let her make the decision. I helped guide her - initially she wanted Barbie (Mattel). So I walked through looking at bigger picture explained growth, profit, earnings, etc. So she used Google to rsch what was the most profitable and highest earning companies for the last few years. Decided they had the most appearances and chose those.

It’s raining in LA. Traffic on the way to get coffee should be ridiculous.

Heard about your politicians telling the world not to come visit since they cant police or protect since its the purge going on down there. Sounds like you need ammo for xmas...

 

[iRider]

Because of work I was in close contact to a person that tested positive 3 days later. PCR test taken, awaiting results. No symptoms, so my hope is the person picked it up after we met.
