I'm supposed to jump in Lake Michigan on Saturday.
Why? It'll still be there in August.
Lemme guess: For charity? Perhaps pooch-related?
We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We're trying to raise $25K for Darby's rescue group. Almost there, with little to no thanks to me. Things kind of got away from me this year.

I've jumped into nearly ice-cold water once, but there was a sauna next to the pool, which made it doable for me.
This was at a Russian bath house.

I did this at a house party around Thanksgiving one year. In Maine. Amazing how the whole pool generates a fog bank from all the steam that comes off of folks.
Apparently there was another party there around Xmas time where they had to cut holes in the ice to do it. I was NOT there for that one.
Why the pool wasn't drained for winter, I have no idea unless this was a thing to do for the family.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good luck with that, brenda!
On the local news the other day, they had some Russians doing a Polar Bear Plunge type of thing, and I couldn't figure out why they were showing it from Russia and not Boston, but whatever.

That picture is cool.
A friend of mine had been taking pictures during CJ's birth (c-section)...but there was no film in the camera. Doh!
Coming into work has been good so far. My manager is here, so I got to touch base with him. One of the guys has a cooler of venison for me and one of my PM's sent me a box of Hawaiian Honey Coated Whole Macadamias in Premium Milk Chocolate. NOM!!!!!
And the gal who asked a few weeks back if I'd consider taking over her job has officially announced that she is retiring in June. I haven't heard a peep from anyone in the company, other than her, about the job. I really like what I'm doing now but if they make a good offer, I might consider shifting. But since she had annonced her retirement, I can only imagine the back channel gossip over who is going to replace her.
