I used to pop wheelies on my FXR no problem back in the day.

My favorite Mexican restaurant has now been closed for the third week in a row. The sign still says closed due to a big propane leak. I was going to ride the FXR up there to eat but when I came by after picking up Scooby from Petco I saw the sign still in place. So it's kielbasa and sauerkraut with a cold Yuengling.

We are headed to the beach to meet up with the BIL and his wife. I asked if there was an umbrella and the wife told me they had rented a couple there. So we are going to the beach in Florida to avoid sunshine. Works for me.

My boss walks into my office this morning, gripes about how my vacation time is my own responsibility to work around my on call time (he's not wrong) and said it was my fault for not planning it out. I reminded him that my on call was to fall on the 3rd week of June, not the first. He asks what happened to my math. I remind him that our guy had surgery and was out for 2 on call weeks. He says, "Oh... Well, I'll cover it this time but it's your..." I quit listening. So, I'm good.

Obviously Mick failed to mention how quickly things corrode up at his house.

We're spending MY overtime check on preparations. Preparations A-G have been flawless, so this step is Preparation H
Mark, we’re good with whatever you serve, as long as the beer is on my list of Mexican beers.

Hey Chris! Good news, I passed my CoVID test today. Wonder if the working girls give a discount for that?

Afternoon Woods, Picked up the estimate from the collision shop for my truck repairs. Dropped it off with the insurance company and fessed up to it being an at fault repair. Went to the Optician and ordered replacement lenses for two pair of glasses.
Being gone from home for seven months may take until fall to get caught back up .
