Seeing Zach Bryan in Tacoma Friday then heading to NYC to see Roverkid and see LCD Soundsystem and not meet @El Floppo for drinks. Back Sunday night and hosting the gf's parents for Thanksgiving Thursday.

Gonna be a hell of a week.

In Queens? I was eyeing those

I have one extra ticket for Saturday night, I think.

 

[SWC]

hey brohans i hope that you are all doing well happy fall and keep on keepin on you are all awesome take that to the bank brochachos

 

[-fish-]

why don't NFL teams at least heat the yard lines so they don't have to have guys with brooms and shovels clean them off?

 

[Uruk-Hai]

So, I apparently thought it was a good idea to retire at the end of the year. I have no idea what I'm doing or how, so the next month should be fun.

I just found out my real estate broker for work is James Murphy's nephew. Small world.

If you get a chance and find yourself in Williamsburg, try his restaurant The Four Horsemen.

You’ll love it GB. Just roll with it. I don’t even know what day it is half the time! I love it. Congrats

I can't believe I used to watch Love Boat as a kid with my grandparents and thought it was good

You shut your mouth!

It's on right now. I do have a better appreciation for Julie McCoy now though

:doublefingerpoint:

We used to have an Isaac the Bartender here iirc

Would love to hear more on what led up to the decision and how you considered things. For better or for worse, this is a relevant topic for this demographic!

This is kind of hard to answer. I'm still sort of processing this decision, so my response may be different in - say -a month than what I'm about to write. Or, at least, the order of importance of my reasons may change. This is gonna be kind of rambling, so apologies in advance if it seems disjointed.....

I'll be 63 next April. I am far from what would be considered "wealthy", but I also don't have some of the cost responsibility issues that others have. I have good equity - relatively speaking - in my home and a decent nest egg.

I've documented some health issues here in the past (in an earlier iteration of this very thread). I wouldn't have bet one thin dime a decade ago that I'd still be alive and posting here in 2024. I've gone into cancer remission three times. But I have a failing liver that can't go into remission and some other stuff going on on the health front.

Another part is that my professional career...... I'm just done with it and I don't want to start over. My company (which is a global giant in my field) has good and bad attached to it, like most others. The newer corporate culture has moved beyond me. I don't hate my job and I like most everyone I work with, but I'm tired of dealing with everything that comes with my position.

So, all of the above has played into my decision.

I'm rolling the dice some that I DON'T live another 20 years. I've had very clear instructions for a long time for the decision-makers on what to do should something catastrophic happen to me. I may get a part-time job at a hardware store or something helping folks pick out door hardware, but I'm able to take a while to worry about that.

Anyway, sorry for being a bit all over the place. If something I posted doesn't make sense, feel free to ask me.

I periodically pop into that thread, but haven't read it end-to-end. It seems like every time I wander in there, there are 45 nested quotes and I'm too lazy to go to the source to get the context

I have a sit-down with my financial advisor on Tuesday to dot the "i"s on my strategy. I also have a call with my HR rep at work to finalize my exit next week. Once I have these two under my belt, I'll throw up a post in there on my experience with doing this. I just need a little bit of time to get my pea-brain wrapped around it all.

So apparently I have a mild case of pneumonia. I've been feeling pretty crappy for at least a week, mainly a cough. I thought it was just a sinus infection that was draining into my chest but I guess it got into one of my lungs. First time having a shot in the keester.

I actually FEEL ok minus the cough. But it's contagious so I guess I'll be working from home all week.

My wife is 2 weeks into her 6 week trip to HI that she got herself for Xmas.

Weird coincidence, she got me the same thing.

Congrats! Enjoying the driftwood arts and crafts that she’s been doing?
