Think it was the proportions of my standing desk at home ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“I just assumed you were like 5’9” “ one of them said. It was amazing.

Oh my guess no better than anyone’s but I give the shutdown a month. We live on user fees not appropriations as such though so we have a slush fund. But they can tell us not to use it, in theory. And unlike every other time, nothing from hq saying how long that runway is this time. Chaos.

Doors open but taking accumulated credit hours for the rest of the day, vibes are ghastly. Official word is we are set for five days and an undefined period after that. Hours? Weeks? Months? No one knows or if they do they are not saying.

Still no written guidance here. Guess I’ll go see if the doors are locked!

Your hubs is healthy as a horse and exercises more. Wild.

Now icing my shoulder that appears to want to freeze up again (for the third time??) or has developed a new problem. Never even stopped doing the stretches from last time!

Owwww. So sorry to hear it. 💔 🚲

great opportunity to do something rewarding and meaningful and work with great people!

The best. I went into Harris Cyclery to pick up some tires for my commutecycle back in the day. I said something like, I just ride this one to work. For serious rides, I've got a racing bike.

He looks me in the eyes and says "The most serious thing you can do with your bike is ride it to work."

A climate crisis is inevitably a refugee crisis and we know how great that is for us political vibes.

A good looking 0530 sky today for sure

You can declare yourself a Friend To All Bugs at any time. It does wonders for one's appreciation of nature and also eventually allows you to call on them in hours of need

Wait I could have a small one to take home?!?

A new bridge along the Washington, Baltimore & Annapolis Trail serves as a link between Anne Arundel and Prince George’s counties.

Our draft 6-year budget includes $240 million for bicycle and pedestrian projects.

“Cat ain’t right” syndrome, my vet called it.

A PT at the end of his rope tried cupping on a compressed nerve situation at my outside knee once. Didn’t seem to do much.

Post a movie you like with a lousy rotten tomatoes score!

I’m so sorry. There’s no being ready for it.

A picture of a space on a train car designed to hold two bikes hanging from the front wheel with those as well as a jumbled pile of electric scooters and folding bikes wedged against seats and into luggage compartments.

That’s four scooters two folding bikes and two full sized bikes here in one car on MARC Penn 438 out of union @mta.maryland.gov . Couple of us tried to get on the earlier train number 536 and couldn’t get a spot, and we left folks on the platform for this train too. Crying out for more bike cars!

Yeah I gave one of the Amtrak police the wtf look and got the hell if I know shrug back. Was there at lunch and none of them were around.

Late period is a different band but would you be without daysleeper or yours to win or Houston? You would not.

I drove a car that had out of time wedged in the otherwise working tape deck for about three years without complaint (my sister pried it out before a cross country drive).

Texarkana is my play it at my funeral song. Strange currencies, fall on me, swan swan h… I do not know if I can get below a top ten without painful cuts.

Look we’ve all done it here. Big loss moving from 20s rowhouse to 50s rowhouse (aluminum awnings, but all the various house parts are pretty standard and at Lowe’s so…).

Am told you can make a giant pan of sautéed peppers and onions and freeze in chunks. So far I am just frantically giving away bell peppers, as my two plants went nuts this year 🫑

She spent most of my childhood determinedly maintaining her weight below 100 which I realized as an adult is prob why she was so high strung much of the time. Hangry.

Yeah. Mom once again has been very seriously ill and the first news I get is a triumphal report of weight lost while hospitalized 😢
