It seems like it’s getting worse. “Correcting” things I typed the way I want and waiting to do it the moment I hit send.

That’s a long time.

Almost anything. Maybe just “anything.”

The feeling of relief that it’s done for the day? 😁 I’ve been a life-long cyclist but agreed to do a long run with my son. It’s been a laborious transition.

Amazing song. For searing or anything else.

The world needs a lot more of this vibe right now.

Cold predawn run. Can’t decide whether I hate it or tolerate it.

Every single day another thing that would have brought down any prior presidency.

Four represents stability. I can live with that.

Black & white photo of a concrete side of a somewhat dilapidated building that has graffiti written with spray paint. The graffiti reads “Time doesn’t exist  Clicks exist.”

At two bars tonight. One where both the drinks and the music were mediocre. The other where the drinks and music were great. Do you want to guess which was full?

This plus Bill Withers playing at the bar. Judge for yourself.

Three lifelong friends from a LONG time ago.

We ran into another friend who had driven up. The three of us are still close after more than 30 years.

Photo is near Paradise Lodge on Mt. Rainier, late 80’s. We rode up from the base without much food or water or money. The folly of youth. It was a long, hungry way back to the car. 😊

My friend organizing this trip has two sayings. “Safety second!” and “It’s not an adventure until something goes wrong!”

We’ve been doing this stuff for 40 years together. Here’s proof from a young PW and MGS.

It’s tagged to the end of a two week motorcycle trip around Iceland with four friends so I’ll go along. And who knows? I might enjoy it. 😁 That’s the benefit of always saying yes. Trying new things.

I’m known among my friends for always saying “yes.”

Drinks? Yes. Concert? Yes. Trip? Yes.

But just now I agreed to two days of fly fishing in Iceland. I’ve never fly fished before and don’t care to. I think my buddy found the edge of my limit to yes.

A good friend told me a terrible story about this just last night where a group of men were cheers’ing to an insult of “all” women. It’s disgusting and pervasive.

Worked retail during holidays in college where there was a short loop of Xmas music. It became painful and resulted in a profound dislike of those tunes.

It’s a great city and easy to join the bikes with a rental or loaner.
