Working from home a few hours a day. Catching up with my reading. I have a whole pile of books (fiction and non-fiction) that I had purchased over the years and not read. Watch stuff on Amazon or Netflix. Working out at home and cleaning the house.

I can't eat anything but like Nathans, reminds me i need to go to a Dodgers game this summer if possible cause those Nathans are better then the store bought ones. IDK how people can eat the chicken/pork ones without puking, i think they are absolutely disgusting. Yes the Dodger dog is worth the ticket price alone, if you never had one your missing out on life.
 
The cats are now in a turf war over who gets to stand between me and the monitor. Ruckus is biggest and therefore most effective in blocking the view. Layla likes stepping on the keyboard as it has good claw feel. Oso likes to head bonk while blocking the view.

LOL my cat Mischief who likes to block the fridge doors has picked up on the fact when i get close, its to get something and he moves! Before i would open the door and he would just slide just not giving even a discounted damn. He kept following me into my room,sadly got the door closed on him cause i got this fan blowing into my rig for folding cause bad gpu fan and cat hair isn't a good thing to have round a pc. 6 damn weeks for a replacement fan from China....yikes.

Nathan's are my favorite as well, except for grilling for which I prefer Hebrew National jumbo's since they crisp up on the outside but seem to retain more flavor.
 
Watching all kinds of random crap on YouTube. I have books, dvds, computer games, but find I lack the attention span to consume any of them. All I can do is watch rubbish on Youtube that I can't remember 2 minutes after watching it. 20 things wrong with [some movie you never saw in the first place]...best songs in [this genre you don't listen to]...my brain is turning to mush...

Bemused that this old Mitchel And Webb sketch [not even one of their better ones] is now a documentary.

 
Well tried to mount the bike mounts up Thursday but I was having problems mounting onto a stud. It was metal vs the wood in my bedroom where I successfully mounted my TV last year. So called a Taskrabbit and the guy came today. He couldn't get them to mount on the metal stud said it was the weirdest wall he's dealt with. So ended up having to use toggle bolts on a section of drywall to the left of the stud, so the bikes are not dead center but they do look good in this urban apartment. Two steel steeds, 1 vintage 1 modern, plus a hint of another vintage steel steed on the bottom left of the first pic:

I went for a hike which turned into wandering around picking up rocks. I didn’t bring too many home but my wife did.
 
I've been on an extended second-shift second for awhile now, where I wrap up around 2am, due to server downtime requirements & their associated windows of availability to reboot stuff & work on them.

I'm wrapping up some projects tonight, but I'm hoping to get back into the swing of going to bed early & waking up early, so this whole quarantine thing may actually have a silver lining for my overall health!

I swear they were nathans having had both, they may have switched brands? If so well that breaks my heart. Its only been like 15 years since i had one. Fuck well what a shame. I guess no more games for me, not a big fan of the baseball game lol i LOVED the dog was all. 🙂 Game was OK but was cursed i went to like 5 games during the 2004 season and well they lost EVERY TIME.

All good things come to a end. Nathans even advertised their Dodgers as you was able to buy them directly from Nathans. Wow well ok then.

Edit : well at least the original Tommys is near by hehe 🙂 Was awesome as well will be going when me and a few friends hit Kcon this year assuming its not canceled 🙂 I am preaching how good INN N Out is but well i may be going right to Tommys 🙂 That place is AMAZING.

Yeah i took a 8 year detour in Arkansas, i went to Austin Texas a few times driving the ex wifes cousins busted old Tahoe and i remember seeing a INN N OUT and i about cried for us to pull over. It was a heart breaker cause in Arkansas the closest thing is Brahms and well its not the same. They did have a egg nog milkshake i swear that would bring the boys to the yard though. I saw a sign during the xmas season and asked for one and when i was told they no longer sold despite the bill board,i almost leaped over to counter to throttle somebody. I had planned my meal by just eating the burger so i had room for a LARGE shake. I was beyond pissed LOL .

Edit: worked at Sonic, yeah given what i seen even my enemies should never eat again there . We had food hitting the floors and the manager STILL would send it out to people. Like this church without warning orders 200 corn dogs on half price corn dog days. All of them hit the floor which was nasty, all got rewrapped and sent out . Also cause of mess i had slip n fall and now deal with back issues due to worn disc. We also cooked food clearly outdated, cause beef franks are expensive. I lost sleep over that one. I went to toss them out and was told by manager to cook them anyways.
