Morning, all. I'm willing to compete with snoring guy for the title. I'm told I'm pretty good with volume, and I have clinical proof of not breathing 5-6 times a night. I prefer to think of it as my lungs taking a short break. You might even say they're taking a breather

Top of the morning 500 gang.

<--------- Saw a small sounder (also called a squadron) of these on my morning 5 miler. In the wild they scatter if they see you coming but the ones around my hood have become accustomed to people and they will just stop feeding and stare at you in a defensive posture. They are not aggressive to humans unless they feel cornered or have babies to protect but they will attack dogs since they look like coyotes which are their main enemy.

My wife claims I do the same. I dont know how she could possibly know that since I'm constantly waking up to her snoring.
My room must sound like a freight train crossing a minefield at night.

Cloudy, breezy, 55 today.

Yesterday was a get together of immediate family. Quirky, potentially volatile group of 16 people. Set my expectations at Low, hoped for Good. Turned out Great.

Today has been low key, relaxing and peaceful. Smoking a My Father.

Seems right.

Oh man, that sucks, I hope they have expensive headlights that broke and the cops give them a ticket for no headlights.

Could have been any of the 3 stores I was at.

BTW Was an awesome Watermelon 🍉 I picked up.

emotionally-she was cruising nicely for several weeks but then hit a bump in the road a few days ago...looking like she may pull out of it.
This could be the pattern for a long time...

physically- prolly gonna have her thyroid removed but not immediately. Follow up with kidney guy being moved from July to August so we can take a couple weeks in Hyannis. Couple other things as yet unclear.

Howdy all yous.

8track - my best to you brother.
Toasting you and your father, and your bond together.

Rfenst - wishing a successful recovery for your wife’s feetsies

Papa - wishing all the best for the lovely Caren.

Bucky - hope smashing your noggin doesn’t change the wonderful deranged fella that you are.

MACS - enjoy the heck outta your time on the high seas.
Wish you all the bounty your boat can hold.

Anyone I’ve missed - PM me.
I’ll light a prayer candle for ya.
Or a crack pipe.
Depending on what you prefer…

Morning, peoples. Heard we're smoking crack pipes today

Morning prayer was about Rejoicing in our Suffering. Tough one for me to effectively adapt to that, but will give that a try. Most of us struggle with something(s) every day.

One foot in front of the other. Let's Go.

Dudes...

Good morning one & all.

Perfect advise!

And, for every business around there and or the owner of the building, who may have its own surveillance videos.

Once cracked a $175k settlement for a client after doing this type of leg-work on my own.

It pays to try and look if anyone has any surveillance backed up.

I bought her one, but still have to negotiate the total loss payment to Honda and payment of the equity to her. 1-2 phone calls at most because adjuster came out with an initial offer that isn't too far off...

Nice enough this afternoon to set out in the shade and have a smoke without getting in the pool. It's been cooler this June usual with temps only getting to high 80s low 90s and very low RH so far. It's coming though.

How is Buckey's mental acuity doing today? Just read an article talking about personal responsibility vs societal norms. The author said he had a right to choose to not ware a helmet but society and insurance should have the right to not scrape his ass off the pavement and administer health care.

Hope all is well Buckey.

Still a little cloudy with a throbbing head, some slight blurred vision and ringing ears 24/7. This morning was the first time in a week where I felt comfortable enough to stand up in the shower rather than sit on one of those handicapped chairs. I felt mostly good during most of the day at work but at the end of the day I was getting kinda dizzy stumbling again. I think it will just have to run it's course and I need to take it easy. Meanwhile I'm trying to hide it and act tough, I can't stand to be bedridden while going though it. Work has been completely supportive and understanding which is a positive.

I didn't realize how much a concussion can drag on or make typical day to day things less easy. My opinion is I should be over it by now. One other problem is that I can't get a good nights sleep. I'm up every hour or so then I screw around for 30 min and try to get back to sleep.

Oh well, just gotta roll with it until it clears up and need to schedule a doctor follow up sometime this week and/or next week. I'm sure I'll survive. One positive is that I have a better understanding and compassion for others that have sustained head injuries.

They are calling for rain over night and on and off the next couple days. I'll prolly be a lazy ass until the end of the week.

That's sad to hear and I'm in denial.

Really didn't need to pick up the refill at the pharmacy that day. It was raining on and off and during the break in the rain, I just hopped on the bike for a quick ride there and a quick ride back. Literally only 4 or 5 blocks away. Little did I know, that those 5 min would end me up in the emergency room and the ICU at two different hospitals for 3 days until I could negotiate for them to let me go home.

Hindsight and stubbornness is 20/20 and I'm paying for that unnecessary bike ride. I can't change things now but I just need to learn from them.

Any legal/civil recourse against the person who opened their door into you? Most cities have laws about having to look before opening a door into traffic/bike lanes. Did the door-opener get a ticket?

Not good wif numbers, but X4

Morning, peoples. We were rolling on into summer, but seem to be backtracking this week

Up at 2:30 this morning... in OKC after 2 hrs drive... brother is having some stones blasted.. glad it's not me...

Morning all.

Imma x7 on the Bucky bucket. Maybe work type working through it is not the best thing to do?

Been back from our mini vacation for a few days now so headed off to Cali (Long Beach) brother in law's condo for a few days. Prolly go to Catalina Island for a day.

Greetings fellow 500 peeps.

Enjoy your day.
