Hey y'all. long time no see!

So i quit my tech job. Now What?

Anyone in the DMV who needs a second, DM me. Looking to second weddings and take on my own "infinite events " like elements, births and boudoir.


But seriously. Wtf. I quit without a real plan.

Well, hello, stranger! Welcome back.

Meh. Plans are useful, no doubt, but not always mandatory. Sometimes taking a little risk is just the jump-start we need, maybe without having realized it.

Good luck, @jowensphoto!

Does anyone have a Sleep Number bed or have any thoughts on them? We need a new mattress, and the wife and I have different sleeping styles. Thought this would be a good compromise?

Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. Of late, it has been surprisingly cool here. Gary suspects that it may not break 80F today. Over the weekend, Gary installed a Tv in the patio. It is mounted on the patio ceiling and it is capable of swinging out of the way when not in use. The swinging action is Gary's idea, not the designer's idea ... so now Gary has to figure out a locking mechanism for the ceiling as well as possibly a device to easily and safely swing the Tv up and down.

We checked out Sleep Number Beds a year or two ago ... the salesperson was rude. They work, but if I recall correctly, there are much better beds in or near a similar price point. (IIRC- they nickled and dimed you ... the bed is $800, but the doohickey is another $$$ and the thingamajig will be $$$ extra, and the whatchamacallit ... that's extra.) We sorta got frustrated and ended up with a Costco foam mattress. No complaints, but it doesn't have the movements of the Sleep Number. But there are many beds with movements.

57 and raining here today. It's Fall weather! Just 3 days ago I was at the beach praying for a breeze.

If you like waking up feeling like you've been beaten in an alley, then get a sleep number. Worst decision I ever made, that thing went in the dump after a year. We went with a Sealey PP firm euro pillow top. Not sore anymore when I get up.

Gary echos well wishes at jowensphoto.

I bought our foam mattress on Amazon. $700 or so for a Cali King, and it's awesome. We had the same one in queen size for 8 years with no complaints.

I stayed in a hotel that had sleep number beds...my primary complaint was that you can feel the transition from side to side. I also am skeptical of anything that requires power to work...although we live in a pretty good nor'easter/hurricane area. Not everyone has had 30-40 days without power since 2011 haha.

I could easily hate you for posting this LOL Mid 90's this afternoon, with close to matching humidity, but hope is on the horizon. Mid to high 80's by the weekend. Our version of a summer cold snap!!

57F ... that just seems crazy. Gary daughter lives in St. Louis, it is equally crazy there, 90+ temps with 90+ humidity. Gary is quite happy with overcast mornings, 80F and 50% humidity. Beaches here are @ 70F. (Not so much the 50% humidity ... but it is doable.)

Get a tall boy servant. He can also fetch you some wine and rub your wife's feet.

But what does Gary do when the servants take a holiday?
