Look I fartsacked on Saturday and missed an epic sledding Q, and my weekend only got lazier from there. I didn’t even bother to check the mail. The goal of today’s Q was to get as much work in as we could without overdoing it.

Secondary goal was to give F3 Pluto ( Hugh Nystrom) the gift of early completion for the day, and we would have succeeded wildly if not for the fact that F3 Pluto ( Hugh Nystrom) was, for all we know, in bed, or doing burpees alone while listening to James Clear podcasts.

My intent was to lightly warm shoulders, not blast them this time, but when I start yapping I lose track of time, so you’re welcome. We warmed up, we guaranteed 10 years of life for all in attendance (you’re welcome again), we moseyed, we hit Cardiac pretty hard, we did 106 burpees.

There was some invented controversy, entirely predictable, as to the timing of the end of the Q. To that I will only say Gibbler that the Q may not always be right, but he’s never wrong.

I flubbed my BOM. Lack of oxygen to the brain.

COT: Remembering my dad who shares a birthday with me and passed away in 2017. One of his lessons to me was to challenge my perspective, my assumptions. Always try to see things from other perspectives. Challenge your viewpoint. Are you seeing things as God intended? Or do our selfish desires get in the way?

Bonus: Lots of easy listening when I was born: James Taylor, the Carpenters. Still some Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath in there, too though. :sign_of_the_horns:
