A lot of focus on moderation lately. I blame Velo Vol.
Thanks for all the birthday greetings, guys, and Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Nice, @Bah Humbug. Since it's a holiday, I will be nice and keep all comments regarding running to myself. More power to those that can.
Annual bust a gut ride this morning. I never know if I can make it due to the lights, but somehow I always get them done. Tuesday had 1,000 mph winds, and then it snowed overnight. Definitely a setback, but I hustled, and they were ready to go last night. Got home today, and Georgia-Mae decided some Christmas lights would be tasty.... We love her anyway.

Casually Deliberate
I ate a very small amount of everything and no pie or ice cream as yet. I have my boots laced on and I'm getting ready to head out to work. My stomach is not its happiest but I suspect this is adrenaline and tension rather than a bug. In addition to the excitement of working Thanksgiving/Black Friday, today was the first time the extended family met Lester and I wasn't anticipating the best of behavior from them.
I went with my Army boots tonight because this nineteen-year old guy from the Garden Center and I- I don't know who else if anyone is doing this job- will be staffing the ingress and orderly egress of customers. This will be interesting because the store is open twenty-four hours a day even today and people are allowed to be in the store and shopping although they can't enter the various queues until two hours before a particular product goes on sale. At least I'm going to be outside. They started playing the Christmas muzak on Tuesday and around 5pm yesterday they turned it to about 8x the previous volume. That and the screaming, crying children and the noise from the people arguing- which they do with each other on an ordinary day let alone today- and the sheer volume of bodies would be both energizing and overwhelming.
See you all in about ten hours... Oh and Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for being such groovy people to hang with this year.

This reminds me of a couple of letters I got from guys in combat zones, still going out on patrols.Keep your head down, maintain fire discipline, don't let anyone in your group switch to full automatic, and if everything goes to ****, grab a softball bat.
