The Countdown to 9/30

The new shoes have helped the knees. Biking up to get the shoes has also helped get me out of my "I'm walking to work" groove and back on the bike. I do like that it's quicker, it's the whole changing clothes at either end part that's not particularly fun.

But it definitely felt better to bike in and back today.

Work's still crazy busy. Wish I could talk about some of it, but alas, the cone of silence continues as I do like keeping my mostly-comfortable job. Two more weeks and we get to move on to the next set of craziness, also known as the continuing resolution period until after the election. It'll go at least until then, and possibly later depending on which way the electoral pendulum swings. One house gets lost, they'll likely ram the budgets through ASAP. If the current majority stays in power or gains, they may just punt the decisions to January. Either way it's bad budgeting. Too bad the typical voter doesn't care about whether they put a budget in place or not.

Otherwise there's not much to report. I've become even more boring than I was, but most days that's just fine by me.
