Crashing out the moment I got home from work and spending a very happy hour in total oblivion.

I should be mad about having to work OT today (total of 11.5 hours)...

BUT

Then I remember that I am paid by the hour, so I'll just have some more money to shop with this weekend!!!

dropping the cylinder block back into my bike in the space of 5 minutes, without benefit of a ring compressor. Reassembly has officially begun.

Amazing how another 6 freakin' inches of snow helps the patience factor. Now I think I have even more time to get the bike back together. :frusty:

My smaller dog started using her back legs today, and tried to walk a few steps!

(She has been paralyzed nearly and week, and undergone back surgery with a 75% estimated probability of walking again.)

I am beyond happy.
