Hey Pubs. I'm wearing my new Laphroaig rugby shirt, so pour me a Quarter Cask and put a single rock in it.

Work

Totally kicking ass. Way too complex of a situation to explain, but had an "impossible" job thrown on me before lunch yesterday, and delivered the presentation - to 100% positive reviews - at 9:AM this morning. AND only stayed an hour late last night to hit the deadline. (My predecessor in this job couldn't have produced this work if given two weeks. I did it in hours.)

Left several people (VP and C-suite executives) pretty much speechless. They were blown away.

Home

Decided to sell my amazing and wonderful BMW r100, because it turns out that my motorcycle preferences have changed, and I am no longer a "vintage bike guy". Having no garage, and no place to effectively work on it and do the never-ending little tweaks and adjustments that a classic bike needs.

So bye-bye BMW:

And hello Honda ST1100:

Of course, Seattle is battening down the hatches today in preparation for the storm to end all storms that is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and continue through the weekend, at least.

Oh well. I have a safe and warm house, and plenty of food in the pantry.
