Just had my first ride in an autonomous vehicle!

The robots are here!

Damage in the park near my home from the storm yesterday. Took out a tennis court.

I'm at a millenial wedding.
Jessie's Girl is playing.
They all know the lyrics!!!

Ya know when you see a person talking to themselves you suddenly realize they are on a call with earbuds?

Ya, that person behind me is just talking to herself.

There should be a rule that if you are going on a flight you must scrape your tongue and use mouthwash

And I'm on my third martnini.

Imagine sitting on top of a mountain.
That's what I feel like when walking around my construction site in my condo.

It's an assessment of my accomplishment.

Bloody hands

It's dusty
A mess of tools

It used to be a fancy place where fancy people sipped fancy wine.

And it will be again.

But now it's mine.

It's my canvas.

And in the future, when the fancy people have returned and the fancy wine is pouring, I'll remember tonight when it was a mess.

A Lithuanian peasant made this.

Sip..

Incredibly petty.
"POTUS was dismissive of Georgia race when he saw him on Friday,” Lachlan Murdoch said. “He basically said Republicans shouldn’t vote because it’s all rigged anyway. And if he can’t win no one should.”

I just shook up my 2nd martini.

AWE SHIT. I just splattered martini all over myself while trying to read and drink.

I'm starting to realize I have not accepted the fact I'm getting old.

Just got back from a startup networking event. I was the oldest there.

I walked 1/2 mile from the bus stop. My legs hurt.

I walked 3/4 mile to the bus stop coming home. My legs hurt.

I take a taxi home.

I've got a martini sitting next to me now.

Just finished installing the drywall over the old radiator hole.

I'm exhausted.

It's 3:40 pm and I'm just now eating breakfast.

I've got at least 2 more days of spackling to do.

Stayed up until 1:30 configuring my elderly father in law's new phone. It's replacing the one he lost. I'm exhausted.

Back to the construction work. My whole body hurts from yesterday's job.

I've been pound old plaster off of walls for the past 3 hrs. I'm exhausted and really, really dirty.

But, the electrical work is going very smoothly.

I just need to get the drywall and plaster started tomorrow or else this mess will go into next week when the wife returns.

Later today I'm going to start printing this batch of leaves. I've not kicked off the slicing process because it will take a little while, but I suspect it will be a 24 hr print job at the least.

Success! Leaf design #2 came off the printer this morning looking pretty good.

Now I need to print 10 more in a batch. Fingers crossed!

The Wife has left on a biz trip for the week.

I proceed to tear 6 holes in 4 rooms to re-route switches and plugs and seal up an unused radiator.

All of this has to be done before March 20th when the painters arrive.

I'm covered in dust.

Hail, again, in San Francisco!
