Washington DC. Aside from the obvious, just trying to drive into DC makes you think that perhaps you could get off on a technicality or plead insanity.

Talk to me Goose.

I can confirm that I’m not a bighorn sheep.

Ah crap is it not ok to say tourist anymore? Are they sightseers? Differently geolocated? Apologies for offending.

It happens. People come into Colorado Springs to visit and don’t let themselves acclimate if they’re from lower elevations and then they try to do pikes peak, which is about 3k feet lower than Everest base camp. The altitude sickness can be legit.

Bigfoot approved!

Didn’t realize it til I took a closer look but if you zoom in where the sunlight is hitting you can see the Cripple Creek gold mine.

It’s 14,115 feet in elevation at the summit so it tends to be 30 to 40 degrees (F) cooler than where I live down in Colorado Springs so it’s still cold enough to snow up there.

The rash is real. I look like I’ve been in an industrial accident or something.

So I tried this and it was an experience of mixed emotions. Relief that my nose was no longer running mixed with an uneasy shiver of disgust as I felt everything draining down the back of my throat. Effective yet disturbing!

I’ve been thinking about that, actually. Just pop into the urgent care like, “Hey doc I just want to make sure my brains aren’t actually leaking from my nose, and if they are can we maybe not”.

I may have to go get one. The area around my nose looks like it’s been set on fire at this point and I have some reservations about leaving the house sporting my nose tampon.

Definitely been taking the good Sudafed.

Food cannot touch on the plate. Each item must have a clearly defined DMZ between it and its neighbors.

I have one of those too. The cat only wants to play fetch when I want to go to bed, of course.

I used to work with this guy who swore the lyrics to Beast of Burden by The Rolling Stones were, “Don’t wanna be, your pizza’s burnin’”.

Alfadhirhaiti - Heilung It’s hypnotic.

I too was mad that there was no snow on the ground for Christmas this year. Then I got a blizzard warning on my phone so it might still work out ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Every single one of my kitchen cabinets is too high and I can only reach the bottom shelf. My kitchen tongs double as a grabby thing so I can reach stuff. I bought a rather large kitchen cart/portable island thing and that’s where the dishes live and it doubles as my cooking prep station since it’s slightly lower than my counters.

Second the hiking boots. My day to day lambofeeties are a pair of hiking boots.
