None of us are as dumb as all of us!
You should retire. That means you don't have to work.
Hike this morning from Andermatt, now waiting to catch the 14:30 train to Oberalppass.
hey gang.
WFH today, so that's nice. May try to get out to that TT with the new bike. Not sure it'll work out, and WFH is very conducive to an outdoor ride.

Supposed to be 90f today, if no wind take the kid paddle boarding after work, if wind, just swimming.
What up, muffin. I averaged a 1:42/100 yard pace for my 2500 yard swim this morning, which is slow as fuck for an actual competitive swimmer, but it's just about the fastest I have ever been. It's probably like the road riding equivalent of a 16 mph ride.
Anyway, it's a WFH day. There is a retirement happy hour tonight that I'll go to though.

Still sick but feeling better. Finally was able to sleep without waking up every 30 min. Still really bad throat and nasty cough.
No window in the shitter in Andermatt. FTMFL.
do you think 2 weeks would be long enough to hit fun spots in italy/switzerland/germany....or 3 weeks...
Great after work ride yesterday with the wife, she had a great ride GG Smashing into the rocks.
Hopeful for some sort of ride again today after work, but the afternoon storm forecast is a bit worse for the next few days so we'll have to see what it looks like.

here. both kids out of school so wfh. semi-large fight w/spousal unit last night left me feeling drained. we kinda worked it out though. planning and communication is hard and habits and patterns of behavior are hard to change, eh?
gotta get a new mattress for 13yo as cat pissed all over his old one for some reason (maybe mad when he was out of town last weekend?) and that smell ain't coming out. le sigh.
coffee's hot and looks like the sun might show its face later today, so i got that going for me.

What crime are you accused of?mornin'off to get fingerprinted, brb.
same here. 'cept the bugs are brutal so hanging out at the beach is kinda off the table. Maybe a paddle in the canoe in some swift water?
tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter, ad it's ride-night. my buddies want to park at the beach trailhead, which sounds nice, except that loop is nothing but climbing (how that's possible is beyond me, I think it's because it's all small descents in the middle of climbs, so 95% of your time is spent climbing). I may try and get organized to get out for a morning ride instead.
I accompanied my youngest's class on the end-of-year outing yesterday to a Scout camp about an hour and a half out of town. It was awesome despite the heat and the bugs. They rock-climbed, did an obstacle course, paddled and archery. Everyone was completely wiped by the end. Got my first swim of the year, and the best part was being able to leave when we were ready and not having to wait for the bus that was about 25 minutes late... and stopping at a casse-crôute on the way home for burgers and fries...
:drum machine:
man, deleting the linkedin app has been so good for my mental health. I tune in every once in a while to make sure it still exists but it's like instagram for professionals...you only show your success and not your struggle
Currently, I am my daughter's favorite parent and the wife is not taking it well. By currently, I mean the past like 6+ months.
In other news, work is nuts. I'm trying to own multiple projects while simulataneously "leading" the rest of the team on theirs. It's working as well as you might expect, but not warranting much attention as other programs are an even bigger shitshow, so we are killing it in comparison.
i've never had an issues with linkedin, then again I:
-only have connections from my industry, which is basically all professional office workers
-log onto linkedin once a year at most. maybe once every other year.
I only had an account for about 3 months during COVID when I thought the airline industry might totally die. Might have been the worst part of the whole experience.
Pulling a Tupac and saddling my wife with the kiddo while I live out my days under an assumed identity in the mountains of Norway?
That's oddly specific.
it might, though!
Mariko: no favorite parent. she is her own little pre-teenager
Yuna: definitely me, for the snuggles and understanding how she reacts to the world since she's a lot like me
Aya: chooses to snuggle with wife 99% of the time in the mornings, although she's so wiggly and distracted that the wife usually ends up with a cat instead
what did you do this time?
