And a good night's sleep too, it's important not to be fatigued.

I do have some nice bourbon that I've been saving, maybe I'll crack that open after dinner.

Well we're having a nice conversation right here...

Me and Sadie the Saint Bernard. Mostly her though as she sits on my lap.

Sadie is mostly soft, and she's rarely very far away.

I was just talking with my wife about dinner. I do already have leftovers in the fridge for tomorrow's lunch, it's looking like after lunch tomorrow is the best time to fit in some enemy's bone grinding.

I appreciate the reminder, it is important to be limber.

No, as I said, I have power tools.

I am in my garage amidst several DeWalt power tools, so yes, there is yellow.

An old, dirty white rotary phone from a shelf in my garage.

I have this one that needs a bit of cleaning up, but it's yours to borrow ..

A complete west bend electric fondue pot in the original box. Comes with the fondue forks and the recipe book/instruction manual.

Is stuff from the 1970's "antique" yet? Get a load of this baby:

Bonus awooooo! For severe storms awareness week, or maybe Canada is invading. I surrender to our new Canuk overlords!

I'm sure they are completely not joking. I have a couple of employees that live and work in the burbs and are flat out frightened of Minneapolis. They're also trumpers, so you know where they get their "news" from...

Crap. Cleaned the ash out of my grill so I can cook some steaks and I guess it's time to shop for a new grill. It's maybe six years old? And we use it all the time... (Still grilling steaks tonight, just on the right side so the coals don't fall through and start my deck on fire...)

too much to alt text, sorry. this is a graphic from NWS Chanhassen showing rain chances for a bunch of MN and WI locations with percentage chances broken down in three hour intervals. for the twin cities, 5% chance of rain 6am-9am, 10% chance 9am-noon, 25% chance 12-3pm, 65% chance 3pm-6pm, 85% chance 6pm-9pm, 90% chance 9pm-midnight.

get your rides in during the AM, looks like it gets wet in the afternoon and wetter in the evening...

At Urban Growler for beer and food prior to the Robin Hitchcock show at the Turf Club. Sooo happy to have a Maibock on tap.

90's me would have picked Jesus and Mary chain/mazzy star, but now me would choose pavement/gbv

ten minutes of screwing around on the FCC website. had to register for a separate government payment system and link it to my license number.

just renewed my ham radio license, while it's slightly irritating that I had to pay to renew, it's $35 for ten years. (ten years ago it was $0) KC0WTA for those that have the slightest interest...

Given the other beers on the shelf, notably the old Milwaukee and the Rolling Rock, I think we can agree that this store has very loose definitions of both "Midwestern" and "craft"...

You called in Superfunkycalifragisexy?

We have a bunch of out of town bigwigs here for a meeting, so I told my boss to burst in there at 12:59 and go "oh no, the Canadians are attacking!"

Awooooo!

(me at total wine with seven different bottles of wine and booze in my cart, looking at the guy ahead of me with two cases of coors and three 1.75's of phillips vodka) that guy is an alcoholic...

If you see this post a concert photo you took it you'd like

There's going to be wallpaper removal involved, so I'll be getting back to you on your half the price bid. 😁

Hey #MSP peeps! Got any recommendations for a pro interior house painter?

There are items on my to-do list that are old enough to drink.

there's probably that much of mine that isn't confused/relaxed/scrambled by a couple of glasses of wine that you can use, but the other sleepy half is starting to exert some pull, so act fast!

did you pick up a 750 of the rapsberry tart while you were over there, or don't they make that any longer? I gotta tell ya that their raspberry tart blended with a big chocolately stout (i've done it with Southern Tier Chocolat) is just about the most decadently delicious thing I have ever tasted...

has your curious energetic hamster repeatedly ran that ball straight into a wall? 25 years ago my 7 year old son and his friends thought that was hilarious...

Not sure but "what nice Edison cylinders you have" is probably a three dimensional entendre...
