What is a short hike vs. a long hike?

I take our 2 dogs for 3-6 miles M-F in the morning. They’ll sleep pretty good until dinner time but then they’re basically ready to go again.

It’s the shortest month but it sure doesn’t feel that way.

Deodorant is blue, deodorant + antiperspirant is white in the store. It’s also all aluminum free now which sucks. I miss the aluminum deodorant gel.

I don’t do that. I only thaw and grind enough for about a month’s consumption at a time. I got ~6 pounds of coffee for Christmas and only have a cup a day usually.

I was just providing my process because it seems, unintentionally, well designed to avoid condensation.

Good to know! Thanks! I vacuum seal what I can’t get in jars and let it all thaw freezer > fridge > ground.

I use old mason jars to store my whole bean coffee in the freezer until I’m ready to grind and use it.

A coffee aficionado can probably chime in on why this is bad, but uts the best use I’ve found for the jars.

I know how to sit on a fence. Hell, I can even sleep on a fence. The trick is to do it face down with the post in your mouth.

I wasn’t here. It’s a pretty common saying. You might want to log it away for future use.

Most people could cheap out on tools and they’d still last.

I think this is a great one. I learned growing up that if you need a tool for a project buy the cheap one. Then if you use it enough to break it, buy a more expensive one next.

Tool trial by combat, so to speak.

It’s pronounced colonel and it’s the highest rank in the army.

For me it’s a tie between:

Don’t ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where you’ve been, ever, for any reason whatsoever.

and

Sometimes I’ll start a sentence, and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way. Like an improv conversation. An improversation.

I had one job where the writing was on the wall for our team. One big indicator was when our director out of nowhere dipped out to a new job.

For a few weeks any time I mistyped my password and couldn’t get into a system I would think “this is it, they killed my access”.

They did have the decency to tell me first. Our whole team was gone within 3 months.
