And amazingly, not curling related. That’s different drama.

It’s just so damn typical. And I can’t say anything about it to someone because I’ll look like the asshole.

Ever had a bone to pick and written about 100 vague messages about it but delete them all even though no one involved would see what you said? You want to be petty, but you just can’t be. But really really want to.

Ignore the random extra commas there. I’m bleary eyed.

Being involved with a curling club is why I can never know peace. Spent days and days of my life building the ice. Now spending days and days of my life, watching it, melt and pushing it down a drain. And then we’ll spend days and days of my life building it again.

I saw someone say Slayyyter is what happens if Britney Spears and Lady Gaga had a baby, and that may be the most factual opinion ever. It has been good background writing music though. youtu.be/0W-N1DqpmiM?...

Realized I don't have my uncle's phone number so had to call mom to see if she checked on him up there. She didn't even know about the quake. Lucky to have missed that incredibly loud alert.

Looks like quite a jolt up there in Mendocino if this was all the way in Clearlake.

Maybe if their bitch asses did anything, they'd stay in power

The song the 12 o'clock bells played sounded way too much like Lady of Spain, and now I need to watch Jaws.

Also, RIP IFeltThat app. You were a real one. Miss you already.

My usual earthquake tracker app went dark so I added a new one just yesterday. It has the earthquake coming alert, and that shockingly loudly announced the 5.6 about 120 miles north of me. Didn’t feel it, but thanks for the drop-cover-hold advice at obscene volume.

Oh nooooooooooo!

I’m proud of us and in great admiration of all of my colleagues.

We’ve been in our temporary space for 6 months, and it is already so familiar. Working late and by myself after we closed tonight, and I was just struck how while not ideal, we managed to turn this former power plant then facility office space into a cozy, serviceable library operation

This handsome dude and his friends are visiting campus to eat the weeds.

Does the HHOF have to meet a minimum quota, because woof. It long ago lost the "fame" and became the Hall of Good, but even then... Woof.

Excuse me, he did what?

Also, Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed episode 6… whoa… 😳 🤯

I’m sad Widow’s Bay is already over.

Social Distortion did a cover of Wicked Game and it doesn’t suck. They did right by James Calvin Wilsey. youtu.be/x_NXOdWlonU?...

Not the most upbeat audiobook I've ever listened to. libro.fm/audiobooks/9...

I blocked that goalie’s name so I wouldn’t have to ever see it again, and I might be slightly sad to not see the dunks on him. Whatever they are, they are still too kind.

After 8 hrs of bartending yesterday, I went back to ye curling club to help clean up and re-set after the bonspiel. When I got home at 5, I sat on my couch. And I just woke up. Oy. I think I was tired.

So that’s why! I was wondering about all the high tide warning alerts I’ve been getting. Seemed odd timing

It’s only June 14 and I’m already tired of being hot.

I won’t go as far as to say if you like that you’re a terrible person. But I’m getting pretty damn close to believing just that.

I like dumb shit. I’ve left my own dignity in weird places. But that “sport” is barbaric and we as a species, knowing what we know, really should be more evolved than that at this point.

I really do try not to yuck people’s yum, but I tagged UFC as a turning point in this country because there is no way a culture can support human cockfighting and maintain dignified humanity.

Just bartended for 8 hours at the bonspiel and I never sat down or stopped moving. Tapped three kegs, and drained 1.5 handles of fireball, 2 handles of gin, and 1 of each vodka and bourbon. Curlers are something else.

This zucchini was perfect yesterday and I thought I’d pick it today. It got huge overnight. How does that happen‽?

You know, they are always complaining about how overworked they are. This just proves they have too damn much time on their hands. Go research or course plan or take a damn vacation. I'd say touch grass, but being on a lawn seems to be one of their complaints.

The faculty had to sit on the field in the sun (along with the graduates, mind you) at commencement this year, and have been boiling about it ever since. Today, they released a 15-page manifesto about it. 15 pages. #iaintreadingallofthat

I miss weights so much. 😢 At least PT cleared me for “reasonable” deadlifts. I just have so much grip strength to work back to.

I’ve been off weights for a few months because of this elbow (now diagnosed as neck) thing, and I’ve been told no push exercises for awhile. Which is an extra bummer, but squat-to-overhead was a favorite. Explosive power from the legs.

The whole video is really much more embarrassing. The form is horrible, the weight is low (those are maybe 20s)… it’s all just so bad.

Ludwig von Lopez is still in his minor surgery (broken belt) so I test drove something. Sadly, not this.

Carlos Bee Blvd does have the best signs. They don’t work at slowing anyone down, but they are fun.

Also, the temperature is grossly unpleasant. Already 90. But it’s a dry heat, I guess. I don’t know, this blows. My skin is burning.

Beautiful hilltop campus everyone has to drive to because this hill is brutal going up and down. But with a funicular, build parking and housing on Mission Blvd and have a funicular the rest of the way.

I have long been an advocate for more funiculars in every day life. Maybe it’s being a Bay Area kid and knowing about cable cars. But, man, this hill going up to Cal State Bay could really use a funicular.

Because of course a librarian waits out her car maintenance at a library. Wat up, Cal State East Bay!

If possible, the squirrels on this campus are tamer than even our campus. This guy walked right up to me. Was disappointed I had no snacks.

Unless they find something terribly wrong, I’m hoping to punt decisions until Fall.

Took my car in for annual maintenance and my usual guy gave me the mixed news: I’m going to probably need to make the call myself. 150K on manual means nothing. It’ll keep going until I pull the plug.

I also left my Apple Watch at home so all the gym time and long walk aren’t gonna “count” and I hate that. 😝

But at least gives me an excuse to check out the bikes in the gym. He gave me the go ahead for that.

PT dude told me no running for awhile until my pinched nerve chills out. I hate running but also don’t like being told not to do something. Funny how that goes.

Just the maniacal, violent hatred for women... I just don't get it.
