This popped up on my Facebook memories today. Reminding me that I hadn't yet published my post about the Mountain Junkies Mill Mountain Mayhem 10k. Virtual. Trail Race. That I wrote weeks ago. Back when Rogue and I ran it. Virtually. And since I'm currently mourning the loss of John Prine. And the addition of … Continue reading Mill Mountain Mayhem Virtual

Pandemic Brain
“Why haven’t you learned anything I’ve taught you about cheating in gym class?” Because I’m a pure soul incapable of deception? See. The problem was. Fall Risk loves manmakers. Are you familiar with this bullshit? So you take a set of dumbbells. And you burpee with them. Except instead of just a standard bullshit burpee. … Continue reading Pandemic Brain
Super Secret Trails
I just walked my entire yard. And back up to my balcony. Looking for the moon. Because Fall Risk messaged saying how huge it was. And I wanted to see. But I’ve got no fucking clue where to look for it. I used to think I’d survive an apocalypse. Survive. Hell, I thought I’d thrive … Continue reading Super Secret Trails

So, everything’s cancelled. We done upset Mother Earth. And now she’s taken every single privilege away from us. We all on punishment.

Toilet Paper Quest
Ok y’all. We need to chat. I’m looking specifically at you, America. Netherlands. Malta. England. Y’all can go about your business. I think Australia may need to hear this.

Dorito Socks and Heavy Weights
You ever get a delivery? From Amazon? During a global pandemic? And spend 17 1/2 minutes staring at the box? On your porch? Trying to remember what in hell you possibly bought? There’s a point where you try to determine who might hate you enough to ship you a box of the Covid. Meh. You’re … Continue reading Dorito Socks and Heavy Weights
Bud Light Hard as Hell Half Marathon
I’ve had more socialization in the last 24 hours than I have all week. And my introvert is exhausted. Apparently we have to exercise our socials in order to keep our tolerance for people up? And these are the people that I love. What’s gonna happen when I’m finally forced back out into the world … Continue reading Bud Light Hard as Hell Half Marathon
Quarantine: It’s Not Going Great
I’m not sure what day it is. This is either the end of the first full week of quarantine. Or the second. Or maybe the 88th. I’m struggling. The cats have learned to open doors. I assume in an attempt to escape me. I’m not talking just nudging a door open with their nose. Pumpkin … Continue reading Quarantine: It’s Not Going Great
Find Out Who My Friends Are
Remember how I said it was so good to “see” all of my gym people Monday evening? At the virtual class? Stole this pic from Fall Risk Yeah, screw that. This pandemic is really starting to turn people. And I’m learning now who my friends really are. It started off ok. I was almost late … Continue reading Find Out Who My Friends Are
I’m Limiting Your Telecommuting
Ok. Look. I get it. We're all just trying to survive this. And if we have the opportunity to work from home. And continue to make a living. Without going out into the Corons. We should do that. I fully support that. I am as thankful as the next person that I have the option … Continue reading I’m Limiting Your Telecommuting
