The officiant remoted in through Zoom. You know: being responsible and making concessions given the circumstances. My groomsmen got Ernie Hudson to record a message for me in his Ghostbusters jumpsuit, which is absolutely awesome.
Congrats dude! Blessing in disguise that you couldn't have a big wedding :lolol:

72 is cold when that's the high temperature in the peak of the afternoon in the middle of summer.

I just made a cup of earl grey and am indeed dressed for fucking fall at 330 in the afternoon. It's so dark and cool right now that the crickets are already at full song. Fuck this place.

If you want that, just stay inside and turn the heat and lights off.

We are going to the beach this weekend with my sister and BIL. After that I am fine with it cooling off a bit, I really enjoy fall. January/February can fuck right off, but through new years, the cooler weather is nice. I would be full of :mahtroy: :rage: too though, in Corning, fuck sub 30F temps. Fortunately winter here is like low of 30, high of 50 most of the time. The random week or two of sub 20F temps I will just stay inside for the most part.

Top Sail. Not my choice but beach trip.

I'm actually really excited about the winter doe. I have so much PTO I'll probably be able to take a day and ski every week.
Topsail Beach, NC? It is nice.

We’ll probably hit up some tubing as a fam this year. Then maybe next year drop the kiddo off for lessons when we head to the mountains.

Jack learns this year for sure. It's a year later than I would have preferred but shit happens.

Little kids on skis are hilarious, basically tiny rockets with helmets bombing the mountain. :lolol:

Ran around like a chicken with my head chopped off today to get all affairs at work in order for my absence. I’m the only employee on the security side at my site, so it’ll be interesting to see how things go with me being away for a week. Luckily, Labor Day is a holiday here and office is closed so that’s one less day for shit to go wrong.

Computer is officially shut off and I am running fast AF to my car.

Now it’s time to direct anxiety toward traveling with the :baby: for the first time.

I think I'm going to learn downhill skiing this year. Snowboarded in college, would be fun to learn to ski.

Same, except with 10+ years on snowmobiles. Snowboarding looked cool but was not fun.

Gravity is not a good power source.
