I'm tired of the cat thread. ;)
Let's do something new.  :hypocrite:

 :hi:

I dug my regular bike out from behind the junk on my back porch, aired up the tires, and added the baskets to the back rack this afternoon. Sunday is looking good to go for a ride... maybe even bike to church.

This title is definitely me.
 Ready to go crash. Did get one long term goal picked up today. For the better part of 15 years, I've wanted to update Rusty's interior. Still have door panels, carpet and a headliner to go but the expensive part, the seat, is finished, and it is exactly what I wanted. Also going to put a tilt column in- when he rebuilt the seat, he repaired many broken springs and new foam, which puts the position higher and the steering wheel, while usable, is much less comfortable.
 The plaid is a tip of the hat to the flannel my dad and grandad, and now I often wear. I think it suits the old guy...

A friend said the other day "she was high as a cat's back" or something similar - and I cracked up. I'd never heard it before.

So ready for being off work tonight and sleeping in a smidge in the morning. I've got lots of housework to do unfortunately so I can't sleep in too much.

Got off of work and had to go to a saints house because my extrovert wife had helpfully said I would love to when they invited us and a third of the church over for dinner and games. My social battery was dead...but I managed to be polite and lasted two hours before I eased back out to Rusty and headed home. Told her NEVER to do that to me again. I love everyone there to distraction but that was bad close to hellfire for me after this week. Tomorrow I gotta do to work for an hour or so.

The song "head and shoulders knees and toes" had to have been written by someone who had their first workout of the year cause it pretty much describes what hurts after biking too much.

Roscoe

Well. Been a normal busy weekend for me. Enjoyed Saturday with Lou after I put my hour at work drug testing in. Sunday was preach day. Today- take saint to dr, wash truck, go to Conway for saw ( with Chey in Rusty so I count that as a break), picked up a beautiful $500 electric fireplace for her apartment on sale as a display model for $250, and actually got the trim I've tried to get painted for the last three months painted.
 Tomorrow- work half a day and take Lou to her lung doctor.

Everyone is getting sick around here. Mostly flu. The local schools have shut down.

I went by yesterday to pay my water bill and City Hall was closed, the sign on the door claimed because of COVID. Trust them to be completely out of step with the rest of the population being sick with flu.

You know this thread with a title about spring is going to be here through at least seven seasons...

We get a bit more done I'll post some. IT's not Robbie quality, but it'll do. It's been a real good learning experience for me. :biglaugh:

It's nice and warm here too....but foggy and overcast. Supposed to be near 80 Saturday, but noise about possible cold surge and even snow sometime after that. I am over that mess.
Back at work with several to see today. Be glad to get it all done.

Yea suppose to be super warm Saturday here too and then it drops to like 37 Saturday night and is cold for another few weeks. We'll see. You know the weather down here can't ever make up its mind.

Stepped in cat throw up this morning so that was fun.

Two wrongs make a right:

I am playing a video game set in 1403 and it goes very big on realism about living in that time.  The main character is a blacksmith's son who has to learn how to fight really quick because of an invading army.

I found an interesting glitch where the game randomly, rarely and unpredictably forgets you have any money at all. Occasionally when you save a game and later come back and load that save, all the money in your pockets, anything you stashed in chest, all of it is just gone.

This game has been out for 6 years and nobody has fixed this problem yet...

I could just make multiple saves and use them in rotation, and be very *I need a thesaurus" retentive about making sure I still have money when I reload any of those...

Wait a minute! Surely somebody has made a mod for this game where you can cheat. It's the nature of the beast, er, gamer.

So I went looking and found a mod that allows you to type in commands to give yourself any item, any weapon, additional skill levels for any skill you want... And more money! Now I can just cheat back the money I lost because of the glitch. I just have to remember how much money I had before the glitch happened.

So the glitch plus the cheat, two wrongs, made a right.

I don't usually comment here on interesting stuff I see in video games. Wrong audience. But this is the first time I have ever seen two wrongs make a right.

Obligatory old joke: and three rights make a left and four rights make a box.

Totally agree. Cold here too, and my computer taskbar reads "Temps to Plummet"
But forecast shows a high of 76 tomorrow...I'm believing and claiming.
Been busy beaver today. Ready to call it a week.

It's 85 here, today but that cold front is supposed to hit tomorrow.
