gonna need to throw bikes in there sometime soon. s'posed to take 13yo and his buddy skiing sometime. guess it'll be a day trip as there's literally no lodging available for a night anywhere near here over the next 2 months.
warranty work i hope?"Mercedes me connect" app informed me last night that my sprinter is now in the shop and being worked on.
We'll find out. @Jozz thinks yes.
Hey bruvs. I slept 12 hours Sunday night and 11 hours last night. I think I am caught up on that for now. My legs still hurt. I'll probably climb onto the kickr later for some very light pedaling just to loosen up.
Windy as all hell out. Just checked the local weather radar and we are about to get slammed by a band of severe thunderstorms. I hope this crap passes by before I go to pick up a disabled school kid in an hour. In the meantime espresso and a fried egg sandwich
Morning Monkeys.
No idea what's in store today, but I will likely fake work for a bit. I don't gym as there is only one in town and it's awful and I'm against commuting to work out. I have a small weight setup at home I am good at ignoring and it doesn't cost me anything additional. But I also had some goals this year I am already 2 weeks behind, so there is that.

Hello sleepmonkey/workmonkey friends! I got up early and worked out, mostly because I slept like shit. A few days ago I was struggling writing feedback for somebody I hated...something last night triggered the "Remember why?" response and I suddenly recalled the couple of times she was casually racist, and the several times she corrected my opinion in the middle of a group meeting...so yeah, playing out a whole bunch of conversations and scenarios in your mind unneccessarily will keep you up. Anyways, had a decent sweet spot workout and now i'm at work for happy good times.
I've always been concerned for the longevity of the Formula hubs on mine and wife's fat bikes. I accidentally a new set of DT Swiss 350 on Mulfut's yesterday for $360. Price was too good to pass up to replace my Formula hubbed Mulfut's. My bike is a 177 rear and DT Swiss have discontinued their 177 hubs
I'd love to try a set of Onyx, but at $500 for just the hub I couldn't ignore this deal.Now I need to decide who gets the new wheels between wife and I.
Already got paid for talking on Zoom for an hour and a half. Apparently I know what I’m talking about or at least appear to. Company says they plan to set up more calls. Who knew working in all of the different input sectors in AG would become valuable 20 years later.
cool story bro.

Didn't get to study last night, as I was dealing with a situation with MIL1 last night. Work, Haley back to school today, and gymnastics tonight.
The MIL situation has us treating a 73yo like a 15yo in trouble for lying and not doing schoolwork. She worked for an atty until retirement and still does some work for him. Wifey got a call from his daughter in Oct that she stopped responding to status update requests, but things were due. We got involved, it was supposedly moving, but got a call Sunday asking to get everything (paper/electronics) sent to them with no care about the status. It was all supposed to be together when I went over last night, just needing to copy the data to flash drives and take the box of paper. Turns out, she spent the day working on the stuff she hadn't done over the last 8mos. So, I spent 3hrs sorting through commingled data files to pull out work data. She's supposed to get us an overnight tracking number today for all of the paper and the flash drives, which are to be sent out this afternoon. We shall see, but we're both running out of patience with her on this one.
Adding to it, her excuse is that she has trouble seeing, everything is very blurry (new glasses inbound), she has trouble writing (really bad tremors), and that the files are her comp are impossible to find (they're in a simple ladder; she's forgetting how to use the comp regularly). Those combined with a few other symptoms are straight in-line with Parkinson's, which is a bit disconcerting. We know she doesn't like going to the Dr, so we're pretty confident that she's not telling each doctor all the issues. Wifey is probably going to have to start going to the Dr with her, which I doubt will go well. This whole situation is a fucking mess. /Rant

I accidentally a sweet art print for The Bong Shed™ this morning. Kozik has always been a favorite, since I saw the cover of the Melvin's Houdini album when it was released.
Until they actually get delivered correctly, I'm not entirely sure I'm even getting what I ordered. But it may well be me who gets them given I can put out more torques, so more likely to explode the Formula freehub.
What went on it?
Nasty cold? You shouldn't be around people at all. Problem solved.

that's unfortunate. unpopular opinion: she shouldn't be working anymore. you should also start the discussion on setting up power of attorney.
Still raining here. At least we have power, and there's no immediate flooding in my area. WFH this morning while the kids go back to school.
8 min bike ride to work starting in November as we are moving to a brand new office. Almost not even worth it getting the bike out for that short of a ride. My lease is up around the same time so I have to figure out what to do. Ideally I could get a nice old car but here they put high tax on old cars if they have bad mileage even if you do not drive it much. Anyway all of that is a luxery problem.
WFH after taking 2yo to his belated annual physical and getting 4 shots. Was not a fan. (He wasn't.....I was totally fine).
Going to be fucking off for a couple hours to ride to see if my recent suspension adjustments make the Izzo more fun. Appears I haven't had it at optimum sag and may have been wallowing in mid-stroke.
Buddy is awaiting arrival of his tennis ball yellow Uncaged Izzo and has been stuck in PA for over a day. He is not pleased.
