I should probably tell the neighborhood kids playing in the pile of leaves I made out front next to the road that like 10 dogs have already pissed on that pile today.

But, I won't.

Fuuuuck, 3 more hours of work? On a Friday?

Just one book, because I don't feel like sitting here long enough to pick a second:

Jacques Pepin, Art Of The Chicken
alright let’s get something more pleasant going. what two books would you leave out on your coffee table so a reporter can mention you have them. doesn’t matter if you’ve read them. for me it’s Pale Fire (which I did read) and Ulysses (got like 15% of the way in)

I was never a super big believer in the "Epstein didn't kill himself" stuff, but hard to ignore that the guy who said in private emails that he's got dirt on Trump and the girl that he said Trump spent hours with while underaged both ended up dead by apparent suicide. A bit too convenient.

I wonder how many congressional republicans have figured out that the Epstein/Trump stuff only gets worse and worse from this point.

Comforting words from the guy overseeing air traffic safety in this country.

It's kind of amazing how cheap marijuana is these days.

It's snowing outside, I've made a big pot of hearty, warm soup. There's wine in the glasses, jazz on the stereo, candles burning.

Cozy season has arrived. 🍁🍂

I was not prepared for the world outside my door to be a winter wonderland today. But, the snow does look nice.

Absolutely miserable weather (37 degrees, pouring down half-frozen rain, windy)

But, it sure sounds nice with a good roof overhead. Makes me want to light a fire in the fireplace.

One fun thing I've done since I've been on here is to follow almost every other Lorne I can find on BlueSky.

Found a couple more tonight.

I don't know why this amuses me, but it still does.

You kids? Ehhh, you'll be fine.

All those other poor little bastards out there? Probably not so much...

Happy Thanksgiving, your flight home is cancelled. But only if you're flying between blue cities.
BREAKING via the AP

The FAA announced Wednesday that it will reduce air traffic by 10% across 40 “high-volume” markets beginning Friday morning to maintain safety during the ongoing government shutdown.

Rain is coming in the next couple days, so looks like I'm scraping up leaves out of the yard again tonight.

I always enjoy the word "rectilinear".

I just have zero motivation for working today.

Pretty on-brand work interaction:

1st email from boss: Hey, we don't have a record of you finishing this training course

2nd email: oh, wait, we do have the two pages of notes you sent us about how this course sucked, that'll do.

Good day to remember that old men who take shit care of themselves die every day.

Maybe today will bring other news. You never know, right?
Dick Cheney died

Ugh, not quite ready for the time change. Not that I ever am.

Ugh, another hour of the work week? Really?
