How the heck did I miss Girl Scout Cookie season? Were there just not any troops selling near me? Why do I not have boxes of Tagalongs right now? WHY
In completely and utterly mundane news, we got our septic tank pumped out. Luckily for us, the second access port was sort of under the front deck, but they were able to easily dig it out and get the lid off without us needing to take up any deck boards. Our tank is pretty big, but we realized it had been a long time since anyone had done it, so I tracked down a company willing to come out here. I also find it funny that as they were packing up to leave, I heard them letting a little air out of the tanker's tires so they could get down our road more easily. So, literally, shit happened.
Fox and I have a mild disagreement. He says you have to pick between Star Trek and Star Wars. You can be a fan of both but ultimately everyone has to pick one or the other. I tend to be more ecumenical in my views and think you can be both. However, if someone put a gun to my head (over this? c'mon, chill out man) I'd pick Trek. I grew up watching both, but found I was more consistently involved with Trek in both movies and TV shows. I have to admit I have not read any of the novels, though. Fox comes down very firmly on the Trek side, and even has a custom-sewn Next Gen era uniform jacket that he looks very spiffy in.
Finally, in my ongoing quest to improve athletic performance and be in the best physical shape and health I can be, I'm watching this video that's like ... is this why my nutritionist is telling me to eat so damn much? How the hell do I eat twenty-seven hundred calories, where am I supposed to put that much food? (aside from "in my face" I know that) But maybe it also explains why ... I feel pretty damn good doing it. If this keeps up, this fall I'm going to be smoking my age group like a cheap bong. Anyway it also explains why that nutrition plan includes an absurd-seeming 260 grams of carbs. I mean, I like carbs. (See above with the GSC)
