RE: What's everyone up to right now?

Kicking back and relaxing after about 5 hours of demolition (interspersed with water breaks and short lie-downs to let my legs and back recover). All the outside walls of my office have been stripped of plaster and lath, and mass quantities of rubble and wood have been taken out to a rented dumpster in the back yard, a bucket at a time.
Haven't gotten down to the wall studs just yet -- one more layer of wood cladding to go, and then I can remove the old insulation. Fortunately I have a vacation day and a 3-day weekend to do this, and while I have the dumpster I also want to get rid of some of the old plaster in the next room.
And try to have a fun Canada Day weekend despite working much too hard.

Reading an article on the next America's Cup, which is already slated for Auckland, perhaps in '21, with ETNZ defnding, obviously, and Luna Rossa already set as the Challenger of Record. Word of foiling monohulls, this time (never knew of such a thing).

Watching Sam Bee and chatting on Slack.
Ya'll mufuckers don't even know what you're missing. I saw a selfie from one of the Slackers (LFC) that would blow your fuckin' minds.
Also she showed us her gash today.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Watching news about that night club shooting in Little Rock.

Wondering if it's still possible to get aboard the Prydwyn if I murder Paladin Danse before starting the BoS questline. There's a point in the main questline when it arrives where you get a quest to investigate.... Hmm....

Oh joy. Got one of those stupid women power games going on. "I'm going to leave you. But I'm still thinking about it so let me decide."
Why do people do this baby shit? Fuck sake.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Well this time yesterday I was on flexi-leave (one great thing about being an Irish civil servant is that you can work up a 1 1/2 days extra time off every 4 weeks), so I decided to go spend some time in Templemore (where the Gardaí get trained, a beautiful town), and climb the Devil's Bit (great view, though I didn't take photos, am scared of heights) and then go onto an open day at White Gypsy brewery (who do lovely beers in specially made oak casks). So, all in all I had a brilliant day.

Wut.
Why, because of the rat? I reported someone here on AF. I'm a rat who blew the horn.
