[unofficial weekender] X-Mas inbound! Do you know where your mental health is?

You are aware that I’m on my way to the office at 5:45am? There is nobody else than me (luckily) most of the time. I was talking about potential people in the office. XD

This is how my way to work looks like:

Well spotted @horati0nosebl0wer

Of course I’ll be onto my lawyers IMMEDIATELY!

we all know that’s slightly too colourful for my tastes.

Mörning.

I think it’s Wednesday. Not really sure though. Night is a blurr. Also it’s freezing outside. I present my way to work:

I know you can cure a squeaky wheel with a bit of oil. Is there any way you can give your bike a squeak?

So you can become known, locally, as that guy who cycles to work at some ungodly hour and wakes everybody up?

Or maybe whistle a jaunty tune (or better still, a completely flat, tuneless dirge) as you cycle along?

Wrap up warm! Double socks and a “flap hat” to keep your ears covered up!

1. I squeak enough on the way. No need to make the bike worse
2. Maybe but I’d rather be hated for being a grumpy old fart who yells at young ones crossing the road without look both ways
3. whistle? I barely have enough breath left to not collapse!
4. Warm I am. Really, my body for what ever reason is burning so much fuel for heat. I’m only wearing a jacket and gloves at 0°C and it’s fine. Still sweating and huffing like a pig.

What a fantastic mental image!

A playing card in the spokes might well be another route instead of a squeaky wheel. It’s less obvious and only mildly off-putting in the wee hours.

but it adds friction. So I need to work harder.

Eat baked beans. Strap a cigarette lighter to rear mudflap. Instant afterburner.

My after sure will burn with that kind of idea. XD

Thursday.

’nuff said.

(Where is my weekend?)

[ced1106Participant 6224xp 0]

Food coma after turkey day!

Only the 3 of us, so stuffing, turkey breast, and that’s enough for me.

Excuse to make DESSERT tomorrow!

Also, Amazon BF goodies already arriving for Christmas. Do I really want 2x Funko 4-character sets at under $10 each? Apparently, I do.

Also, got banned on Twitter for 12 hours b/c I suggested running over some Macy’s Thanksgiving Day protestors with a Barney float. 😛 Gonna see if I can stay off the site for the weekend, since I only should be using it for financial stuff and it’s otherwise a waste of time.

Colder weather in the San Francisco Bay Area is better, since I can do my daily walk anytime before sunset!

Hang in there and keep painting!

What’s a barney float and do I really want to know that? XD

[pagan8thParticipant 10747xp 1]

Barney float sounds like something kinky that Fred Flintstone does with his best buddy Barney Rubble!

Wow. It’s Saturday already.
I’ve had quite a traumatic week and the time seems to have just flown by. Went on a bit of a Youtube deep-dive last night just to switch off for a few hours and was absolutely blown away by the excellent Crooked Staff Terrain sci-fi stuff (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD8Ochy_alA) . Would like some feedback to ideas from you guys, so will post again when this week’s new thread pops up
