On a south side dive bar crawl and someone played the insane clown posse on the jukebox. I am so happy.

Last night’s Colbert and Jon Stewart monologues were nailed…
Minus Jordan Klepper’s bit, they articulated everything that I’ve been feeling about the Alex Pretti murder and our administration’s response.
Absolutely worth a watch.
These are dark times.
Played my first game of hockey in a month last night.
Skated hard, got a couple assists, steals, scored a goal, and took a puck to the shoulder.

Seasonal depression: gone.
Motivation: high af… like it used to be.

Boarding the flight just when the bears come back and go into overtime… this has been a fun season.
Sure do love seeing tariff surcharges added to my orders. #maga
Serious question: Why isn’t there a Casey’s serving pizza by the slice inside the Des Moines Airport? Add beer and bloodies. Call it Casey’s Tavern or Casey’s Concourse. It’d be the most popular spot in DSM, hands down.

Whenever I get sick, I try to pretend like it’s not real… but it’s not working this time.
Flu weekends are the worst weekends.
The United States is fucked.
The latest iterations of iOS and watchOS are the buggiest, most beta-feeling releases that I can remember.
… It’s almost like apple lost focus after falling behind on AI, so the dev teams are stuck in a cycle of launching a bunch of half baked shit while leadership figures out wtf they’re doing.
Today is the first day of the holiday break that has truly felt like a holiday break.
Not sure if I’m ready to go back to work tomorrow.
Child funerals are brutal, man.
Elias was such a cool kid.
Shit is unfair.
Made it to Chicago in 4.5 hours… with a stop. 🏎️
