^ Exactly my plan. Also to include Jackson Browne's version for a fuller discussion of the finer points.

Take a baseball bat and trash all the routers, shout out "IT'S A NETWORK PROBLEM NOW, SUCKERS!" and then peel out of the parking lot in your Ferrari.

^^ I dig the Jackson Browne

No rest for the weary this weekend. I need to bust out some study time and finish getting rid of all the boxes in my apartment.

So far, things have been taken very easily. :)

This weekend I spent 3 days in a creek bed building a retaining wall to keep the creek from washing around the bridge and cutting off the driveway.  I barely looked at my phone all weekend.  Covered in mud and sand and sweat.  It was great.

I will be on PTO next week.

ALL next week. :smug:

:dj:

Hopefully, my sewer line gets hooked up today so I don't have to wait for it on Monday.  :(

Hey! So am I. Don't go back until December 1st. I don't have sewer line problems, but I am getting a new washer and dryer delivered this weekend. If it gets delayed I will have to play college kid, and take my laundry over to my parents house.

EPIC GRAVEDIG FOR END OF YEAR PTO 2022!!!!

Sewer line was fixed up nice last year, BTW. :smug:

Hope everyone on PTO, be it mandatory or voluntary, has a quiet holiday with no all-hands sev 1 conference calls because the devs won't reboot the Windows server unless they've put the network guys through hell testing everything else. :rofl:

On the other side of things, I got stunned last night watching KC go down to the Broncos... Sean Payton's kept his seat from getting hotter with that win.

Gonna epic gravedig and just make this thread about stuff and things in general.

Big storm here last night, I'm all right as is my family and property. But it was a big ol' line of thunderstorms, I tell you what!

Taking a pair of sick days because I'm feeling run down from the last few weeks of travel and work and not having enough time for rest.

We have had some big windstorms off and on the last few weeks. One of the cabinets on the back side of the house tipped over, and broke up. Still need to clean up the parts. Luckily nothing important in it.

Wife is traveling for work this week so I get the place to my self. Using that time to build an O2 generator so I can make my own Nitrox for SCUBA. Getting it put together in the living room, and once I have it working I will take it up to my brothers place where the compressor is and mount it. Just need to get it done before Friday night.

Did my taxes today and got a noice refund because of solar panels.  :smug:

That will pay off some other home improvements at higher interest rates and I get a snowball running that way. (SNOWBALL: taking what was paid for one account that is closed out and applying it to the next one. Start with highest interest rates and work down. Best benefit is on accounts where paying off the principal early reduces total interest paid.)
