The Cannondale now has a handlebar, which means I was able to mount the brake levers, which makes it look a lot more like a bike.

Just found a NOS Ti railed version of a saddle I've been wanting to try for less than the retail price of the base steel-rail version

It's been so cold that car washes have been closed.
I'm finally getting mine washed after a couple of weeks of regular commuting.
My poor truck is literally crusty

Ice sheet in our pool got to roughly 2" thick. First time we've ever had ice in a pool.

That's the end of winter according to the earth's orbit, not according to the temperature.
I haven't washed my car for at least three months.

Celebrating LSS’s PPP loan forgiveness with a little glass of decent Sauvignon Blanc. She is now really retired. The good creature shoveled snow and scraped ice all day too. Glad I’m a keeper!

All but a year of the time I spent working at Genentech, it was in Building 1, which was really just a converted warehouse, with windows only for a very few executives, and part of the lunchroom. The rest of the place had no windows. Nothing but artificial light. Every year when Daylight Savings Time started and I left work before dark for the first time, for the first whole week I felt like I was leaving early.

That's all the bits I need, with what I already have. Have I mentioned that I hate waiting?
