    I didn't... Yet... there were some issues with 3rd gen hood flapping around so I didn't want to spray under the reinforcements in case of this issue.

    Devise a plan or solution and send to your boss/management to review. If you’re as busy as you say, they will need you there and can’t afford to lose you. Sounds like its not money or a poor culture, it’s the on going requests and mental draining from answering hundreds of emails. Its unhealthy being that unhappy having gone through it and working to be more positive. Having waited a year and a half for a new hire to assist me, I’m looking forward to taking real vacations and actually “turning off my phone.”

    Welcome, I live in South Norwalk just outside of the downtown strip if you see a really cool dude driving the lunar rock tacoma around...

    Hey..we resent that! Norwalk is part of the "CT Gold coast" as the real estate agents preach to New Yorkers. We have the newest mall in America, sprawling nightlife and plenty of fine eateries....

    We have super 7, where all the car and motorcycles top their rides out at midnight, essentially a highway....and then from the norwalk DMV to Danbury is a ton of lights and it sucks.

    Pretty much, ends on New Canaan ave, in Norwalk. The prosperous folks of new canaan would never allow a highway through their country club haven.

    Figured as much. It’s been decades since I traveled that area. I’m in Wallingford if I go out in the bike or truck I always head east.

    Happy Friday!

    Wife and kids seem to be feeling better. But it hit me hard around 3am this morning and have been feeling it all day. Finally able to keep liquids down so that’s progress.

    I started watching Welcome to Wrexham last night when I couldn’t get back to sleep. Definitely helps recovering when you have some good entertainment.
