Big red now has some new Bilstein shocks, thanks to my father, some air tools, and a little elbow grease. It took us two-and-a-half hours, but knowing what I know now, I could probably do it in about an hour's time.
The jack only slipped once, but we had two jackstands under the frame at the time, so the whole process was injury free, minus some bruised knuckles.
The new shocks firm-up the ride of the truck, but it's not punishing. It just feels more planted and controlled than before.
Stayed the night at their place, catatonically watching the Red Sox complete their sweep of the Cardinals. Bedtime was midnight; morning came too early at 5:30. I made it through some DENSE fog to Lexmark by 8.

Until next Tuesday, I'm the acting team lead for my product. Stress and lots of typing emails will result, I'm sure. Still, I'm excited...that, along with a new project I get to work on has me "giddy as a schoolgirl"

No one knows who will win the election next Tuesday. This uncertainty has only increased the frenzy around the election. It's annoying.
Yes, I'm a zombie this morning. Simple sentences are all I can hold in my head at this point. In other news, I'm ready to be a manager.
