I'm on plane #1, leaving an hour late so we'll see how it goes from here... the pilot had better drop the hammer. And at least I got an exit row seat. Leg room ftmfw.

Fuck fuck fuck. First flight delayed, got transferred to another earlier flight. Rushed to that gate to find that flight delayed with a maintenance issue. Now waiting for an updated ETD to see if I'll miss my connection in Chicago which is the only flight of the day to my final destination.

That's all I'm hoping for (no delays) and that the car starts when I get to the parking garage. I have the weekend to recover fromt he long travel so I'm trying no to think about the short term pain of being 6'-1" and stuffed into economy class seats for 7-1/2 hours.

Glad she's ok, cars are easily replaced. Me - currently packing and getting ready for the reverse 16hr travel day to get back home. If all goes well I'll get back to my house around 2am EST.

Knowing how warm T2 knobs get I worry about the life span of a wooden got getting temp cycled like that.

Damn, that thing looks awesome. Well done Marc and Steve.

Oh, and as for what I did today. Took the ferry from Bremerton into Seattle and spent a few hours walking around. It was a very un-Seattle day with clear skies and temps in the upper 40s. Couldn't have asked for better. Seattle seems to be a nice place and if the weather wasn't shit for 350 days out of the year I think I could live here.

I'm guessing that history will be kind in a decade or so. As for how I feel now, I don't have anything good to say so I'm not going to say anything.

Why didn't you just pick out a pair of sealed headphones and make it go away?

16hrs of driving, sitting, flying, sitting, flying, driving seemed long enough. And yeah, Shelly, you've got to love the Gov who only cares about the lowest fare and not the shortest travel time. At least all of yesterday goes in the books as comp time that I can use as vacation time.

Happy Birthday!

Finally at the hotel, sleepy time. Unsurprisingly it's overcast and misting...

Silverdale, WA

Currently sitting at the airport, headed to the pac-west for a week of training.

They'd have to be pretty spectacular given they're pushing near used 12l pricing.

Happy Birthday, Dom!

Happy Birthdate, Mike!

This. We've had next to none this year. There's 1-2" in the forecast tonight, which is worthless.

Again today.

Bat For Lashes - Fur And Gold

Brought the bookcase in from the shop and took a proper picture althought the lighting makes it look much more orange than it is (or is that just my display?).

I basically use it as a remote for my library. The USB works well for sampling new stuff with a complete library rescan, but that's about it.

Buhbye, seriously.

Thanks guys, yes it was great to be back in the shop. Hopefully I'll get the final coat on this afternoon.

Happy Birthday, Grahame!!
