Today I (v2):

Your cog is slipping.
Sometimes in life you need to just cut your losses and move on. I had some bad neighbors in an apartment complex that were harassing and even threatening me. When the the complex management did nothing, I just broke my lease, lost my security deposit, and moved to another complex. Eventually when it became apparent that my job would be long term, I assumed a mortgage on a small house, so that I could be done with apartment living and put a bit more distance between myself and the rest of humanity.

The complex did offer me another apartment in the building. There is a huge rent difference and I would be responsible for it. That puts it out of my range for sure. I am going to meet with the on site manager tomorrow to see where we are with the situation. I have added the township police department on speed dial to my phone.
Today I rode my geared bike for the first time in a few weeks. Felt really good.

Yes I discussed this with the owner as well as a citronella spray collar. I know that the spray collar works as I used it on my dog shortly after I moved in. Went through the same problem. She is afraid that it will poison her dog. It doesn't, it gets them to stop barking. My dog is silent now. He absolutely hated that collar and he learned quickly not to bark. He doesn't even bark when the pizza delivery guy rings my buzzer.
Today I will be riding in shorts probably for the last time this year. 5-8" of snow expected early morning on Saturday and into the weekend. It is somewhat cold this morning, but it is warming up and the sun is out without a cloud in the sky.

Today I saw two middle-aged women in a fist fight outside of an elementary school while on my way to the shop. A crowd was gathering and I didn't stop but it was pretty awesome.

Talked to my neighbor. I laid it down for her plain and simple. First off, I never see her as she leaves for work at 630 am and I am usually trying to sleep. I was off today and made it a point to knock on her door. I told her straight up what my intentions are. I told her that every morning that the dog wakes me up, I am calling the cops. I don't want her excuses, I just want the dog to stop barking, nothing against her, just the situation. She then tells me, get ready for this, that she is now medicating the dog. She didn't want to use the spray collar because she was afraid that she would be poisoning it. So what is she doing? Pumping the dog full of meds, more than likely Acepromazine. I have used this for travel with my dog when I was still married. It works, to an extent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acepromazine
I don't know if it will work in this situation. It takes a while for the drug to start working once you give it. So she would need to get up at like 4 am and immediately give it to the dog. I don't care at this point, I will call the police if the dog barks in the morning. So this lady would rather sedate her dog, and pump it full of drugs instead of using a citronella spray collar. Now I know I am dealing with an idiot.

I made some decent tips today delivering for Jimmy John's. Set a new personal record of 3 deliveries on campus and back to the store in 12 minutes. Only been there a month. Loving it so far.

No sir. We get a small discount on food while we are working. They revamped their tattoo policy since you asked last time. They can be visible as long as they are not lewd, drugs, violence, etc. Piercing policy remains unchanged I believe.

It's too bad that lady doesn't just take her dog for a walk once a day or take it outside and play with it for 20-30 minutes. I bet it would solve a lot of problems.
Did a solo century today, now pizza, beer, and ice cream.

I just made some bomb ass vegetable stock which I will be turning into a gravy of epic proportions. Basically my plan is to boil it down carefully and let it get thicker and richer until where I need it, then profit. Sort of Japanese sushi sauce style (I watched a program a while back about a sauce they made that took 12 hours and was like damn I want to do that)
