I was going to braise beef ribs in the crockpot, but feeling like crap

came down with something like the flu yesterday - slept from 5pm to 8:30am, waking for short parts of the basketball

going to try to buck up and make it to the bar to have a birthday schooner with a good friend - he turns 56 tomorrow

and I need to hit the grocery store, truck needs gas

Anniversary dinner at Amar Santana's restaurant in Laguna Beach tonight. He was a finalist on Top Chef about three seasons ago.

Then home to watch the Purdue game on DVR lol.

Happy Anniversary! Ours is in two weeks - 22 years. Where does the damn time go?!?!?




Hope you feel better FF. Flu-like crap sucks. Maybe toss a little bourbon in with the Schooner.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Making some beer while the wife runs errands. 10 gallons of Rye Pale Ale.

One of our local breweries (Chapman Crafted) is running a homebrew competition next month, and my homebrew club is operating it. Winner has their beer professionally brewed by Chapman Crafted and entered into the Great American Beer Festival's pro-am competition. 

Going to enter the hoppy blonde I brewed a few weeks ago (probably not correct to style, so I don't expect it to do great as a blonde ale), and this. The recipe has done well in competition before, and that was long before I started using reverse osmosis water with proper mineral adjustments, so I expect this one will be even better. 

Hoping, anyway ;-)

I wish you would have hired a good engineer/landscape architect for your place. Dammit.
I'll critique it all when I come over to mess up your kitchen.

Hey now, the architect is a Purdue alum, as is the builder.   I think the landscape guy is a Ball St grad, but I just know he did my inlaws and we like him.   It's a pretty local build, save some of the framing joists/lumber which is Canadian, the exterior brick is from Alabama, and the cream city brick for my bar is from Milwaukee.  Hard to get local countertops.  
Builder and his millworkers have built the vanities and many of the cabinets, and all of the trim.  Here's something for our baluster/stairway upstairs.  I couldn't do this in a lifetime.

Finally got taxes done. Ended up doing TurboTax instead of my accountant... Saved me about $275 and judging by a comparison between 2017 and 2018 returns, didn't really change the way my taxes were done in any meaningful way. So that was good.

For once I wasn't royally screwed come tax time. Getting married really helped too. But even then, I ended up owing slightly on my federal and getting a couple hundred back on state.

Not sure if all of you heard this, but I just transferred back up to St. Paul to work in another office. Rochester was nice, but I'm glad to be back up by the fiance' and family.

My company has a major office in Rochester MN... And if they ever tell me that I need to transfer or be laid off, I'm going to take my chances on the job market!
(Not that I have any complaints about Rochester beyond the weather; I've never been there myself. I'm sure it's lovely 2 months out of the year.)
