You skiing Big Mt while you're up there?
Nope.
However I am pretty sure I have narrowed it down to Occipital Neuralgia. Basically I pinched a nerve in my neck from a variety of means of neck abuse over past week and a half. Applying heat to the back of neck has already helped a lot. Now the question is do I bother with a doctor or just trust my superior problem-solving skills.
Have no fear, global warming will take care of that.
Blow it off dude. What's the worst that could happen? Besides being crippled or dead?
It depends. If the half marathon is the race you've been training for, I'd give it 7-10 days. You don't want to rest though, you want to "taper" before the race. Keep up the same training intensity but scale back the distance of the runs, then go real easy a couple days before the race. For me, this race is part of my marathon training and not my first priority, so I'll take it easy for a few days before the race. Normally I would even give it just one day, but I want to be somewhat rested this time so I can really give it a hard effort. How I do Saturday will help me decide how to run the Boston Marathon. For Boston, I'll taper down for two full weeks before the race. It weird because late in your taper period as your body gets rested and starts to heal, you start to feel like complete hell.
This sounds amazeballs where do I sign up?!!?
Very pleased to hear that Daniel Banyai has been apprehended, by the Pawlet town constable, no less.
from a quick scan...yeah, fuck that guy
Only owe $2400 in taxes this year, FTMFW! CPA also said that I need to open an LLC for Haley. If there's the slightest chance that somebody might give her money for sponsorship or that she might win money (largely just the K1 race), then we need to have it in a separate entity so we can start writing off the costs of racing. It's pushing the hobby law risk (has to be profitable 2 of 5 years to be a business), but it's worth the $100 to setup an LLC.
you get a new job yet?
You are a finance guy and pay someone to do your taxes?
Fuck yeah. I am good at Financial Planning and investing. I am not a tax specialist. Know your specialties and pay for other people to do things that you are not a specialist at.
My wife has some of the smartest wealthy fuckers as clients. The smart ones know there is simply no way that could truly be experts at taxes and tax laws, as the laws change constantly. The egotistical ones usually end up paying much more, or making expensive mistakes that have to be rectified. We are not talking single W4 earners, etc. We are talking complicated scenarios.
Just because they are incredibly well informed on a few things doesn’t mean they aren’t dumb-asses in others. Classic fallacy.
The Dunning-Kruger effect exists at every level on intelligence, this is just farther to the right on the curve.

Still waiting. Interview was Monday and I'm just waiting to hear now.
The cost of getting taxes wrong is expensive. Baseboards? Just time.You mean like trim in the house?
I have some guys like that. Engineers, tech guys, etc. Insistence that just being in the SP500 is all you need to do to make the money you need for the future. There is no need for an FA or CFP. I've seen them post on Reddit with the "I just got hit with a tax bill this big. What can I do to keep it from happening again?" and the answer is FA/CFP 101.
I'll occasionally tell someone "hey, have you thought about how what you're doing will impact XYZ?" only to get them to start asking me detailed questions about it. Sorry, this knowledge isn't free. Oh, and what I'm referring to is a multi-step process where if you get one of them wrong, it will be very costly. But please, remind me why FA/CFPs are just sales people and thieves.
And when you have time, it's not expensive. Going forward, everything is getting professionally done. But until now? I had plenty of time.Time is money, Brotato.
this is true if one would work more in the extra timeTime is money, Brotato.
but with extra time I think Stoney would just spend more at the kart shop. so time is anti-money
This. I know what I know, and tax law ain't it. I've been paying someone else to do my taxes for years, especially once our finances got complex.I have some guys like that.

Btw the IRS has had my 2023 return for 6 weeks now, still not approved. Oopsy!
rode bike on trails. goofed around. ran into ol vinnycactus. such good shit. i needed that. head feels good. onward.
Doctor confirmed nothing wrong inside my head. Prescribed some muscle relaxers so at least I will sleep well tonight.
with a neuro exam, or imaging? trust only imaging
Because it's super effective at diagnosing concussions
And insurers don’t want to insure.
Ok that’s fair
but still. Shrugging your shoulders and sticking out your tongue is a super crude test
