In the cleavage of the Tetons
I actually worked the word Turgid into a pre-interview essay of sorts with Burton Snowboards. It got me to a third interview, but not the job.
But the dude said he laughed out loud, and said he was really looking forwards to our in person interview.
So I have that going for me!

Rummaged through totes in the storage unit pulling all the tools and gear needed for the house build, need to buy some more totes and consolidate stuff.

Mocked up the kicker on the bracket and popped an ovary getting it out to the transom to get a test fit to see where she mounts in a mockup.

Yall would have laughed your arses off watching me trying to pivot the bracket. Eventually had to take out one of the springs since come to find out it was rated for 300lbs. Works much better now.

Now to wobble everything back into the garage and get started on layout and getting hardware.

come on, y'all, I gave you "turgid" as no context fodder yet you're all slacking
installed kitsuma air on the nomad. need to adjust air pressure so it's not turgid.

14yo came home from school after end of year english test. apparently went to sleep. gonna have to go jump on him to wake him up to take him to get a new shirt and pants for his graduation on friday. showed the 18yo how to use mother's mag and alu polish to quickly and cheaply restore the headlight lenses on his old civic. after shirt shopping will probably grill burgers and eat on porch, as it's 80* and no humidity.

Worked until I was ready to go on a killing spree, then bled 4 brakes (soon to be 6) tensioned a wheel and took a beer break. Is new tire time too but I’m out of sealant so that’s for another day.

Yeah sure, why not just have an allergic reaction to the antibiotics I’m taking for the cellulitis in my leg while also dealing with some kind of viral respiratory infection? Having a bright pink, lumpy, itchy rash covering my entire body sounds quite lovely.
