Not me Googling "how to run a profitable goat farm"

Hmm… to retire or not…

COM Surrogate? PC Load Letter?

Whenever I hear the song "Lightning Crashes" by Live I can't help but think to myself that this is probably the only hit ever with the word "placenta" in the lyrics.

Worked up the gumption to stop in at the Swedish clinic this morning to try to find a new primary care doctor in hopes of not actually having to live in chronic pain all the time. "Oh sorry, we're not taking new patients."

I knew by joining a new team I'd feel pretty stupid and worthless at times. Today has been one of those days. Beer o'clock.

Has anyone figured out how to prevent bad/stressful/boring days at work from negatively affecting your mood?

Crystal Lake is good. That is all.

I'm not crying you're crying.

Put new all weather tires on the RS 5 today and I'm really liking them. They aren't quite as thin as the summer Pirelli's, so I don't feel every damn bump in the road.

Saw a Ferrari Purosangue today. As a car guy, seeing cool cars is one of the only nice things about living here.

Just found a recording on YouTube of my performance with Artis the Spoonman!

I won't be impressed until Tesla invents a car that doesn't bogart the left lane driving 10 under and brake every 3 seconds.

I may be the smartest dumb person in the world.

I am so glad no one else bid on this Emerson radio... I accidentally set my max bid to $3477, not $34.77... 😂

Thrifted one of these outdoor Bluetooth speakers shaped like a lantern for $6 today. Works great, has cool lighting effects and even plays nature sounds. Yoink.

15 years ago today I performed with Artis the Spoonman, the inspiration for the Soundgarden song.

Hell yah Brewers.

Death Cab on KEXP. Couldn't click fast enough on this.

Coworker and I were talking watches today. He was wearing his Omega Speedmaster and highly recommended it. I'm in the market for a new watch but not sure I'm willing to spend a mortgage payment on one.

Stayed up late watching the new Carrie TV series. It's pretty good.

The Oregon coast is magical. Missing this view already.

2023 / 2026

Played some pickleball today at work and I'm now reminded that I am very much no longer 18. brb icing my knees.

Heading to Astoria this weekend for the beer, the Maritime museum, and to finally get my hands on One-Eyed Willy's treasure.

I really haven't felt like myself for several years now and at this point I'm afraid I'll never see myself again.

New toys coming soon.

> Plays video games extensively > Has a cat

My Discover feed is so weird. 1/3 "all cars bad, only bikes good" 1/3 "ICE cars bad, only EVs good" 1/3 "LOL EVs"

Foggy morning. Perfect for kicking off spooky season.

Plex removed the Photos feature from the Apple TV app. Putting on a slideshow of every photo I've ever taken was literally my favorite feature. Hopefully they bring it back soon.

Stupid sexy Flanders

I left my phone in the other room this evening and didn't touch it for four hours. Might have to make this a thing. Turns out you DON'T actually have to check social media ever 38 seconds!

Is it just me or does reality not feel as "real" as it used to? Is this a getting old thing? A post-pandemic thing? An AI thing? A political climate thing? Ugggghhhhhh

Thinking of what custom license plate to get on the RS 5. VITAMIN-R won't fit so I might just go with MALK.

My pfp makes me look like a grump. I should probably change it.

When William Hung was rejected by the American Idol judges, he responded with "I already gave my best and I have no regrets at all." Fantastic mindset. Legend.
