I don’t use snooze because it’s too early to do math and remember how much time I have left. Sometimes dreams and reality blend at that time of morning and I don’t trust my subconscious.

Green is the color that registers the least with my color deficiency (I hate the term color blindness). It only registers as green if it’s very bold green. I have a couple green shirts. My eyes shift from green to hazel according to family and friends. I don’t know what that means. There was a green on very early Hot Wheels Camaros that was kind of cool, too. And you can never argue with BRG!

Have used India ink for my fountain pen as a wash for engines and for giving depth to some plated parts.

We were told to try Terry Blacks BBQ in Deep Ellum

Great detail! Just like you want to do better on gloss finishes, I would love to learn to weather like that.

I found Target’s Goodfellas stretch jeans for men. They’re very comfortable, but sizing is very inconsistent. I like Duluth Trading Ballroom jeans, too.

Got a few days of work helping convert an office from a company we acquired to our network. @jsharrand I weren’t able to meet today. Hoping to Thursday before I fly out.

Builder grade stainless steel. When it comes time to remodel it (hopefully soon), quartz granite is an appealing option. Does anyone with one have issue with hard water deposits? It’s an issue here. -
I do. I don’t see them a lot, but I will try them from time to time.

Mine would be higher without the gridlock that we have entering and leaving Maricopa with the current construction. It should make things better in the near future, but pretty horrible at the moment.

Looks like our weather lately. Pretty much wearing what I have been wearing.

I’ll probably skip lunch or just have a snack. The 2 hour time shift will make dinner time early. I will be at the mercy of whoever is driving for where we eat tonight.

Baked some frozen cinnamon rolls and made some coffee. Drank it out of a matching mug! Heading to the airport in about 45 minutes. Between Spring Break and Spring Training, I have a feeling it’s going to be a little nuts there!

Yeah. It’s an old 6-speed with one of the best manual modes I have experienced.

33 on the Stradalli.

Do noise cancellation headphones make you feel nauseous?
groupw replied to MoseySusan's topic in The Café
I have some Shokz bone induction units I like them a lot when walking and running so I’m still aware of my surroundings. I’ve used the wired earbuds that came with my iPhones and they never stay in my ears that well. I have some with an over-the-ear hook. They stayed in better but too much noise isolation for safe running. We sold Bose noise canceling at my old store. It was quite effective when I tested a pair. If I had stayed there I must have bought a pair for mowing the lawn. I could see them being a nice option to tune out the street and house noises when I want to listen to music. -
Wet tea shirts anyone?

@ChrisL It is still a cable connection. I saw something online about an adapter to make Bluetooth work on CarPlay. It was before I bought this car so of course I can’t find it at the moment. I will need to make sure it’s compatible with the control knob system in the Mazdas.

I can honestly say no regerts. I like the lower CG for handling. The 2.5 is more athletic than the 2.0 in the CX5 and I’m getting better gas mileage. I was getting 27 most of the time with the CX5. I’ve been getting around 32 with the CX30. CarPlay is a huge step forward over the old Bluetooth connection. The seats are more supportive. Plus there is just that new car feel and let’s not forget the Soul Red! Really liking it!

I’m holding steady on weight, but I need to get to work on proportioning better. My torso is a bit soft. I blame the injury and slow recovery. I’ve returned to the weights the last couple weeks I plan to stay with it. Right now my fitted shirts don’t like they should.

…but you can’t figure out who. There is a girl at Jersey Mike’s who has always seemed familiar but I couldn’t figure out why. It’s been cool and rainy toady so a warm sammich sounded good. We stopped at Jersey Mike’s after running some errands and ordered a large Philly to share. It finally hit me today. I leaned to WoW and said if Ralphie from Christmas Story was a girl! WOW isn’t a big fan of the movie, but even she immediately agreed. Cute girl, but that was just an odd connection.

Weekend plans as Saint Pat chases the snakes outta town
groupw replied to petitepedal's topic in The Café
Saturday- lazy day aside from a bike ride. A Reuben does sound good… Sunday - fly to Dallas for work. -
Youngest daughter still lives with us. I am sympathetic to the whole concussion thing, but she seems too content being the victim instead of having a little more purpose. Mom is planning to move back to Nebraska, near my brother in the next couple months. Work itself would be better if the commute wasn’t so awful right now. Between construction that should improve things later, snowbirds and baseball fans in for spring training, it’s just a bit intense, and long at the moment. I’ll be in Dallas for work next week. At least one meetup is in the works. When I return, I’m anxious to start on Phase 2 of the pergola.
