Things are swell

You know the quote, ‘I am therefore leaving immediately for Nepal where I intend to live as a goat’?

Where does one sign up for that?

The Manitou Springs Incline

I just got back from a moderate hike, and I cannot think at all. You know the old joke, ‘I can’t brain today. I have the dumb’? That is how I feel.

Took some good photos.

For Posterity

As the years go by, my writing will steadily chronicle my descent into engineering-school based madness.

Unrelated, but doing something ‘for posterity’ makes it sound like I’m doing it for butt aesthetics. And girl, I got junk in the trunk.

Social Hobbies

The problem with hiking as a primary hobby is it’s hard to share with people who weren’t on the hike.

“I SAW REALLY COOL ROCKS!”

BJJ does not solve the problem.

“I choked a mfer! He made noises like when you turn on a garbage disposal and forget there’s a spoon in there!”

Music

I got Conan the Barbarian’s theme on random when I went to the treadmill this morning. Spotify: good

WFH

I’ve been drinking preworkout instead of coffee in the mornings, and yes, it does give me heart palpitations. But I am fired up for that first Zoom call of the day.

Hiking

North Table Mountain left a big, silly smile on my face. There is good in the world.
