Solstice!



Gavin and Dominic sledding.


The monster slope


I'm about to tame this beast.


Not so much.

I think I might have a new favorite hobby. I went skiing once before in Utah about 10 years ago now and I thought it was pretty dope. So, like I said before, I recently got some skis and today I actually got to try them out in the snow. We went up to Hatcher's Pass to this spot where Felicia's friend Hailee takes her kids sledding and I attempted to learn to ski. It ruled.

Then we went to Hailee's house for soup, sandwiches, and hot chocolate. Then we drove to Anchorage to get some stuff and came back and had sushi at the Japanese restaurant next to the in-laws house. Then post dinner beers to celebrate the solstice.

Bonus points, I kicked in the bedroom door to my mother-in-laws bedroom today because Kiernan locked himself in there.

Nerd Shit


Oh yeah, you love this shit.

If you're like me, you spend a lot of time wondering how people survived as long as they have. I mean in a general sense but also in an individual one too. I know you have been sitting there, just like I have, listening to some inane drivel pouring from some jackass' mouth, and asking yourself, "Why hasn't anyone bludgeoned this fucking idiot to death already?" I can't be the only one that thinks that, right? See, he just did it again.

Also, am I the only one who routinely worries about an extinction level event occurring during my lifetime? I can't be the only one who frequently looks out the window and expects to see a tsunami roaring into the inlet, or a wave of fire from a three mile wide asteroid that just slammed into the planet. Sometimes I think that I have the curse of too much time to think about shit.

Oh well, fuck it.

I'm About to Go Get Lifted


Not like this.

I'm talking about with the help of substances, but you already knew that.

Today was total ownage. Let me break this shit down starting with Friday night.

I decided to drink way too much while I watched "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" which turned out to be a pretty good movie, eventhough I hated the Robert Ford character, which was to be expected. Anyway, I got bent and I knew I had to wake up early to go to work.

Saturday morning I wake up still feeling bubbly and I shower and all that, and then I have a leisurely morning of coffee and doughnuts with the family after I jump the Subaru. The bitch of it all is that even with all the extraneous shit I get to work early, which has not happened since I started work.

Then work, where I proceed to fucking kill it. I mean, today, there was nothing you could throw at me that I could not destroy, outside of shit I have never seen before. I was killing it all, derivatives, functions, circles, matrices, paraboloids and cones in R3. I tell you, I had the shit by the balls today. There was no question asked that was not answered.

I was thinking that my getting shit housed on Friday night was positively reinforced by my performance today in the Math Lab, so expect more shit housing and tutoring, because that is what I am all about.
