S'posed to rain this afternoon. Not sure what kind of trouble I will choose to get into today.
Still sick, probably gonna pull myself together and get to the docs office, think it might be strep throat
preparing to enjoy my coffee after feeding the furballs their breakfast.
9 hours of solid sleep last night. I like feeling rested.
Drywall is going up today after the framing and insulation inspection. that's a very dusty job.
After asking the owner of the company to give me a calendar of work, I finally just made one myself and got the site chief to comment on it. I was only a day or two off. They had to deviate somewhat from the engineering plans, so the City inspector wants a letter from the engineer certifying that what they built is ok, which might take a day or two to happen.
It looks like I will be jet-setting off to Sedona while the house is getting primered, painted, floors put in, and kitchen cabinets assembled. All of which preclude having any semblance of a functional kitchen. No stove, no sink, no fridge. My wife is going to love taking care of both kids, with no kitchen, while I'm having fun riding my bike in Sedona. Ooops.

Nothing. Radiator and sparks showed up yesterday. Going to drain the coolant and get the radiator out tonight. Hopefully get the sparks in as well. Rest of the parts should be here tomorrow, so I can start working on that as well.
Happy Humping! We are FINALLY getting a tiny bit of rain. Sweet Jesus do we need it...it never rains anymore. I had a little get together last night for a friend that just bought her first house. Potluck style...everyone brought soup. Go figure.
Randomly unlocked my locked-up lower back on my way to the office, yay! Getting old sucks. I woke up one minute before the alarm clock rang at 5:15AM, eff this early morning isht. Torrential rain is coming this evening so no ride for me for the next 24+ hours.
which one do you run? I'm considering getting the X2 for helmet mount to replace my Gemini Xera. I find with the Xera I can't get both the throw and flood I want. The flood doesn't throw enough, and the spot is too narrow.
I have a Gemini Duo, but it doesn't have interchangeable lenses to run play with spot vs. flood... My batteries are close to 4 seasons old now and need replacing, so I'm thinking of a whole new system anyways... I'd like to try running the X2 is spot/flood combo...
Kid is sick at home with teh:
So looks like today will consist mostly of home stuff. Probably ought to bag some leaves, I can feel the silent judgment from my lesbian neighbors. It had been my plan to use this morning as an attempt to get back into a regular running routine but I guess it will have to wait. Pretty sure a large part of my general/work related malaise is the fact that I've done pretty much zero exercise for the last month. Shorts are getting pretty tight around the waist too.
You shouldn't let your kid near Jon.

morning.
Yoga kicked my ass last night. Really needed it.
I keep getting calls about gigs in a few weeks. November should be busy for me which is what i need right now.

Ice in the dog water bowl this morning. 
Solo night ride last night in perfect conditions. Glad I made it out because it's going to rain for the next week or so.
Cryptic messages from management are the worst. Pseudo-worrisome things peppered with quasi reassurances.

Happy Funemployment!
Waiting for my culture results at the clinic right now.

I've got the 950 lumen x1.
Barely feel the weight, bright and I think ideal once I play with the optics.
The spot is too focused for my tastes, especially on twisty woods trails. My head was on a swivel last night due to lack of peripheral light but it was more than adequate for the fast bits.
There was frost all over my windshield this morning. Had to bust out the scraper. It's high time to cram both cars back in the garage, methinks.Ice in the dog water bowl this morning.
Speaking of cars, can you auto monkeys help diagnose this on my ///Land Cruiser? At residential neighborhood speeds when transitioning from coasting to light acceleration there's a small creaking type sound and feel. I can feel it in the floor a little bit, although it is subtle. The vehicle otherwise appears to be running fine, no CELs or hesitation or the like. It's just this weird sound/vibration, which is new over the past week or so.
I did have an (/a series of 3 incompetent, last two gratis) alignment(s) in the past month and got new front wheel bearings before the first... Could this be related?
Took a new NO stack I've been training on before yoga last night and I killed it. Pulled a few power moves I couldn't get close to before. Better living through chemistry.
This - perhaps the wheel bearings were masking an issue with these...
I would start here. At the same speed, does the noise change when you lift the throttle?
reassurances are the worst!
"don't worrry about what you've read in the media, this bankruptcy won't affect our team, blah blah blah."
stupid companies.
That, or the transmission.
My tranny just blew (rim shot). Felt something similar, except I had hesitation which got progressively worse very quickly.
Not to freak you out or anything.
