Such a treat to be old and out of the acquisition rat race. Sitting here trying to figure out how best to get rid of past acquisitions. Namely, the boxes of componentry and a few frame sets that are built for giants, relative to the local population. Like TMonk I have never been any good at selling things.

Last night and this morning I kicked off my hot weather sleeping/waking routine. Asleep at eight and awake at 3:30/4:00. During the cold of winter I had slipped into staying awake until 9 and sleeping in until 6 sometimes.

Watch band recommendations?
The leather one that came with the watch has lost its loop, and I’ve been using electrical tape to keep it fastened. I’m thinking something made of rubber perhaps.

sweat ruins the rubber ones pretty quickly. Try to find canvas or paracord.

Ah, they are saying now the explosions were nitrous oxide tanks going up.
People were idiots last night. Mankind goes so far out of its way to be ignorant.

Someday when the wind is favoring that runway I'll probably ride out and watch. bampilot06 how much trouble do you think I would get in if I suspended a hammock underneath one of the towers?

Better idea of how I saw it. I don't care about the broadcast just the video. You can see tanks flying out of the fireball

it is past my bedtime so this challenge is tantamount to elder abuse. I'll do one of Velo Vol's favorites. The list
Today I:
* Started the day like I always do - 2 English muffins and 1 liter of coffee (2/3 decaf).
* Worked my ass off fixing other people's F ups
* Walked Roscoe twice and took him out many times to bleed off excess pressure on his old bladder
* At the behest of the Mrs. I yelled at the credit card company for slow walking our fraud refund claim that they know and admitted should be resolved in our favor (in 12 days)
* Looked at houses to buy based on our search parameters
* Danced for joy celebrating our federal tax refund finding its way into our account.
* Made my lunch for tomorrow
* Ironed my clothes for tomorrow
* Posted quality content on BF
* Watched YouTube videos that interested me from my subscriptions
* Read an article about ways to avoid the dopamine addicted life
* Made it through another day

I just reviewed the patient notes from the noctor consultation this morning.
Oh boy. She said she warned me of several things which she didn't (not that it matters). Several times she refers to me as "she." It says she gave me a patient financial assistance card when she didn't.
Should I correct the record on these inaccuracies? Or let it slide?
Looks like only one of us was paying attention.
