Found a nice mountain cabin for cheap.

The ruins of a house in the high desert

A stone chimney and a rusted bed frame are all that is visible against a background of sand and scrub brush.

Managed to wear both climbing shoes and heels in the same day. My feet are angry, but I have accomplished some things.

A view into a valley from about 200 feet up. A foot in a purple climbing shoe resting on a boulder is visible at the bottom of the frame

Little treat culture prevails.

A swimming pool surrounded by a tan concrete deck, pale green umbrellas, and palm trees. At the bottom of the image, a pair of bare feet are visible at the end of a lounge chair.

We’re going to put down a terracotta tile.

Funny enough, the one we’re getting bears the name of a NM Pueblo.

Good ol’ pre-1980 linoleum under the basement wall-to-wall carpet.

Little treat culture works brilliantly for me...until I have to scale the treats up to match the magnitude of the horrors and stresses of contemporary life.

Just signed up for 6 hrs of guided rock climbing this weekend. If I don’t post again by Monday, maybe look for the middle aged lady in the desert.

the fundamental problem of civilization is that humanity's highest calling is Hanging Out With Friends, but a small minority of humans are maniacally driven to control everyone else because no one wants to hang out with them

Oh, yes! I knew there’d be a case of “ghosts in the walls,” but this exceeded my expectations.

Managing a renovation is my part-time, unpaid gig at the moment, so I’ll go with a true story from this past week: That linoleum contains asbestos.

I am 80 percent sausage roll and scone at this point.

One of @benharris1.bsky.social’s favorite things about places like Three Rivers is that some of the petroglyphs are speculated to be things like “Hank’s Yucatán parrot depot sucks.”

Fell asleep around 8 p.m. last night, like the baddie I am.

Just stepped off the Metro. As grueling as an international travel day is, I might turn right back around if I could.

Hear coughing from passengers around gate area, read news of CDC getting gutted, rapidly pull a fresh mask out of carry-on bag.
