Dealing with medical folks recently kinda makes me want to drink:

Nifty Letter Opener
I got sick of gluing our nice little letter opener back together after it fell off the refrigerator and smashed for the umpteenth time and decide it was time to find something new. This little guy is working out well. It’s got a ceramic blade that doesn’t cut skin but gets through paper very easily.…

I Didn’t Know I Needed That Until I Saw It
A frying pan iPhone case? … or maybe the chef’s cleaver iPhone case? I don’t even know how I got signed up for Aliexpress emails.

Mr. Fixit
Woke up in the middle of the night. Hmm, furnace sounds a little weird. An intermittent motor sound that I don’t remember. Meh, rolled over and went back to sleep. Woke a few hours later, hmm, still sounds kinda weird. Getting the day started, hmm, furnace running but it’s blowing cold. Oh, no, that can’t…

More Administrivia
Moved some more random bits off my old Digital Ocean droplet and then powered it off. Gonna let that stew for a few days to make sure I didn’t forget anything or leaving anything pointed to that older droplet. Then, it’ll be time to destroy that trusty 8 year old droplet. Godspeed, my friend!

Facebook? Nevermind…

The Runners Mind
Couldn’t sleep last night due to coughing, sneezing, and nose running non-stop. It’s 3am, should I just go and get my run over with? Thankfully, the call of my warm bed kept me in the house. I did manage to make it out at regular time though. Nothing to write home about, but another one…

Don’t see that everyday
Pulling off 202 onto Alma School Rd just now and there’s a chainsaw sitting in the middle of the exit lane. Uh, ok. Go another block and there’s another chainsaw sitting in the road between 2 lanes. Methinks some landscaper in the area is soon gonna find out that they’re having a bad day.

Streak Day 22
Felt pretty meh at normal running time this morning. Tired from the longer run yesterday and whatever cold I’ve got going on still isn’t done with me. It was also 41 degrees and raining off and on. So, I waited until after I got some chores done to give today’s effort a shot. Hmm, the…
