Holy moly did we get a lot of snow yesterday evening/last night. Should be an interesting commute. TGIF, no OT this weekend. The $$$$ is nice but I'm burned out. Pretty sure this weekend is going to consist of staying inside and drinking.

Been in the 30s-40s here the past week and all the snow is gone in everyone's yards. This El Nino winter is bullsh1t!!!!! I am enjoying the lack of crappy commutes to work. However the ski areas around here are struggling pretty bad. Plus, now the ground is now way to muddy to ride bikes.

Mornin!
Got well over a foot of snow here last night and they haven't plowed out the neighborhood yet. That + 17 mile commute means I'm working from home today. No sense in risking heading in.

I have a hate/love relationship with this non-winter. Hate is starting to prevail tho.
Snow's all gone, Access politics for the.mountain.which.must.not.be.named continue.
Coffee tasted funny again. Checked the bag. In small letters the word decaf appeared.
Why does this exist?
Who is responsible?
This should be illegal!

Damn straight.
raining so the minions will be playing bumper cars on the freeway so I will be commuting on the back roards as usual. Morning highlight: I got on the scale and have lost 25 pounds since xmas
Hello iirc. Swim done before work. Thanks to 50 degree temps, I'm looking to take the douchemobile (tri bike) out for a ride after work, if I can get out of here before 3:00.
buy landcruiser.....have fun.
I own the following snow busting machine, so I will go out and play on my own, but you can be damned sure said play won't end up at work.
Inches away from getting clipped by a cab running a red light. Self driving cars can't come quick enough.
Time to hunt out the local sledding hill this afternoon.
I'll take the lame winter and, according to Phil, the early spring.
Coffee, coffee, and moar coffee. And then, nature will take its course.
Active shooter preparedness training in a little bit. Should be interesting.

Over a foot of snow at home. Made for a fun commute. Had a gomer decide to apex the corner into my lane while turning (double turn lane) not realizing I was there. Thankfully the snows did their job and got me out of there quickly. Car behind me wasn't so lucky.
Otherwise, work.
Otherwise, work.
I see a sandwich in my future.
New shoes. Booyah. No snow on the ground here. My dog found a hotdog on our walk this morning. Street snacks!
Morning Monkeys.
Looking forward to my workday, this should be a fun week. I wounder if we will change direction and focus another 10x before the day is done. Yay.

My snowy commute was completely uneventful.
About 8" at my house. (The "that's what she said" invitation is intentional. 
) Too much for my ManPlow so I had to use a regular shovel for my steps and the sidewalk out front. I had a little helper, too:
She decided that it would be more fun to make a dog house of snow instead of shoveling, per se. It was going to be big enough for 8 dogs, but then she got cold, I finished, and we went in for breakfast.
The drive in was totally fine with my Land Cruiser + Nokians, but other drivers' idiocy is unbounded. Do people just forget where the lane markings exist on familiar roads when it snows? Sure, they're under snow but you have a memory for a reason. Idiots straddling the lanes going 25 mph made me go all ///Stoney on them and bust out the slalom skills.

Yes, I see some great early spring riding in my future!
No snow in these parts and probably going to hit 50 today. I only working half days this week so I am still at home and its nearly 10AM... feels right.
Academic day at work = having spreadsheet of study data open in background with Mail.app and Ridemonkey in foreground, while on hold with Denver 311.
Welcome to winter in Colorado, where the traffic laws are made up and the lanes don't matter.
That's a sick Subaru rail-slide, bro.Welcome to winter in Colorado, where the traffic laws are made up and the lanes don't matter.
Some streets it makes sense for lanes to get 'absorbed'. On smaller 4-lane streets, plows only hit the center 2 lanes, effectively eliminating those lanes. Also disappearing a lane allows for more buffer space between cars. In bad conditions, sliding/tracking is not uncommon.Welcome to winter in Colorado, where the traffic laws are made up and the lanes don't matter.
The snowman built on Sunday is more like an upside down cone with an arm poking out the side at this point. I don't think I've ever had a snowman drown before.
Wife just called me and said the kid was bitching because I shoveled "too much snow" into the snow forts her and the neighbor kids built yesterday. Ungrateful brats.
Cheers! In the pellet mill, thinking about better things...
Hopefully you are not IN the pellet mill. You know, because of what happened last time.
And you would make for a shitty beer ingredient.
Soooo fucking far from Jackson to home. 
There is a time, and a place for decaff coffee...
Never, and in the trash
Still waiting for brown to show up, package left nd yesterday afternoon, ten hours away and not shown as here yet..... Effing bastards

A local was arrested here years ago for poisoning hot dogs, and leaving them on the bike path for dogs to find.
