One of them decided to ride a bike away, I think the thief first tried my road bike but slipped and abandoned it in the alley (I recovered it), then decided to take my mountain bike instead.

Obviously nice to only lose 1 bike instead of 2, but it's really fuckin' irritating to think that I fixed this bike all nice for winter riding so some asshole could ride off into the sunset

The neighbors have some very fuzzy, blurry video that won't help to identify anyone but does show exactly what happened.

7:15 AM on Sunday, two people park a car outside our detached garage and kick in the door from the other side. In 7 minutes they stole a set of car wheels/tires, a bunch of my tools, rifled through Jessie's car, then drove off

Trying to remind myself of the various ways I'm am still quite fortunate

We can replace everything without major hardship

I've got insurance, serial numbers, documentation, etc.

I have good people to call to help me do the repairs

The theft could have been much, much worse

So many people deal with much worse trauma on a regular basis.

But damn, I'm really shook up right now

I'm swallowing a lot of hard pills after yesterday.

I thought that I had a pretty laid-back attitude toward material possessions. Y'know, it's only stuff, no reason to obsess over it, what am I gonna do about it anyway?

Turns out that, money aside, it's really fucking traumatic to have some assholes kick in your door and take your fucking bike.

Fuck, y'all. My bike was stolen out of my garage last night. Please be on the lookout for a Green Surly Krampus, I think when they realize how much I've customized it they may ditch it someplace.

I would never claim to have a distinguished palate, but I’ve had some nice whiskeys and Trader Joe’s Kentucky bourbon is a damn sight better than it has any right to be at $14.99

Sick dogs can have a little beef and rice, as a treatment

Pizza Bus Day!
Pizza! Bus! Day!

So I’m watching this perfectly normal British soap-thriller and then HOWARD FUCKING MOON shows up (and then gets murdered). There are only like 19 actors in all of England and I love them all

Also, everyone check out my new tiny travel guitar! It was a gift from my spouse, who is the best

My brain has been haunted by this @alex toot, so I recorded it in an attempt to rid myself of the curse.

The Warren and Sanders campaigns will keep trying to peel 5% off each other while Biden cruises to the nomination. This is why we need Ranked Choice Voting everywhere we can possibly get it

Went to the First Avenue exhibit at the MN History Center - it was a little cheesy but fascinating and chock full of cool shit. The little wall at the end full of everyone’s First Ave memories was a nice touch
