I’m super fatigued. Cramming everything in only 2 days sucks. August can’t come soon enough.
Daughter turns 4 on Saturday. I won’t be here. First Birthday I have missed and I promised her I would never miss another one.
We celebrated yesterday at Busch Gardens. It was pretty empty and she wanted to ride the grover roller coaster over and over and over and over and over. The lady working was cool, saw my daughters birthday crown and didn’t make us get off. (there wasn’t really a line of people waiting)
Hopefully this makes up for me not being here.

After hitting some bars lately,
1. Bars where the hot college kids are absolutely reek of vape juice. Way more disgusting than cigarette smoke. It's like poisonous pineapple and birthday cakes.
2. There are still some bars where you can get pretty ripped for $20. Wait, you're going to give me this way-too-strong Bushmills and water for $5.75? Wow. This is in stark contrast to what you pay for drinks at a baseball game.

I had a home nurse visit today. Weighed in at 200 (my target weight), BP of 118/56, A1C of 5.0.
If only I had enough energy to ride regularly.

I know this guy's videos have been on here before, but I thought this one is pretty cool due to its very calming feel of the film.
The guy is still f'in crazy.

It's raining. We'll lose signal shortly, and then power. Like clockwork.

Because I'm a big fan of mechanical timepieces, years ago I bought a mechanical "schoolhouse" style wall clock. After a while Mrs. GeneJockey decided she didn't like the chimes, so it was consigned to the "Man Cave" in the garage. Then The Younger Boy and his buds took that space over for D&D and other gaming, and they thought it was funny to stop the clock at 4:20. You know, 4:20? After leaving it like that for a while, I wound it up and restarted it. F***ers just stopped it at 4:20 AGAIN. I gave up.
