Had outer stitches removed from my neck today due a hole made recently extracting a growth. Not sure if it was ever really in doubt, but was tested and a simple epidermal inclusion cyst, thus benign. One of those I never felt in danger, but still felt strangely giddy when the expected test results came back.

A good day to take off and enjoy my boy's company... Happy caffeinating... HS

Last Night: White Truffle Flatbread Followed by The Raw Bar Tower which included a dozen oysters, scallop ceviche, tuna hamachi, shrimp cocktail and red chili and lime tortilla chips

good to hear Ric. but..... {please don't}

Definitely. On both counts. I had to rotate two but took about a minute each and I was back in action.

Recently, I became a member of the Board of Directors of the Communities of Belonging Organization. We strive to help marginalized individuals get the resources they need to persevere and re-enter society successfully. https://communitiesofbelonging.org/ As a part of April being 2nd Chance Month, we are holding a walk to raise awareness and funds to support our vision. We will be walking around Green Lake in Northern Seattle (for any locals in the area). If you would like to be a sponsor, I have setup a team on our Givebutter site. Please take a look. https://givebutter.com/XXcbAZ/michaelmaddock Please feel free to ping me with any questions and thanks for everything. Cheers, Mikey

Walk on, Mikey

Me too!

Jim, isn't it a little early to start bulking up for winter? Of course, maybe not for Vermont. 😁

Yes, the gray links need to be removed. You can use one of them to make the new connection.

Woohoo - that must be a weight off! Great news Ric. Been there recently so I know exactly the nervousness waiting for the result. Mine took a bit longer to heal than expected because the bone headed nurse that took the stitches out, left a fragment in and that got infected, which was not fun.

Excellent news.

Rewatched the first season of Better Things (Hulu) before tackling the new season. So beautiful from the start and so underrated as a series.

Ground what?

this guy has enough kit - but I really like the table.

I've never seen that exact setup but it is basically the same as others. See those two gray links, they are the adjustment but you also need to move the white wire as seen here:

100% home made dinner from last night: jalepeno poppers, mac and cheese, brisket, slaw, cornbread. The teenager took this to snap to her friends, so excuse the perspective, clipping, etc.

(Uncaffinated) Lemon Slice and lemon shortbread.

Deck Brunch (With more 'nana flauntin', gov.)

Decided that despite crushing myself on Zwift for an hour this morning that 65 and sunny (it was supposed to rain) was too nice to pass up. So did another 17 miles on the road. Ass sufficiently kicked.

Okay so I had a NAP today which, means I'm wide TF awake RN and therefore attempting to work on my show. This new version of Traktor has some strong "is that a feature or a bug" energy to it. Tonight I discovered 100s (of the 6600+) tracks I have in my record bag are not displaying key text. That's bad because I love to mix in key, but I am a dumb DJ and not a muscian so I need to know if that song is in Cm or not. Currently running a background process scanning the songs in questions. 1h10m remaining. I tried this once before and Traktor cheerfully ran the process but didn't write any tags. I futzed with config settings and I'm unsure if I actually fixed anything. I have a third party key detection software (the open source KeyFinder), which can write tags. Unfortunately, Traktor doesn't recognize those tags.

I love it when you find metal in your expensive wood by running it over the jointer. That is all.
