The 888 Fatboy Chocolate World Tour
-
I ran into a hideous Lamborghini the other day on my way home from the gym:
Once, at a job site, I made a similar comment when a Lambo that exact color drove by. A friend replied that all Lambos are ridiculous, so if you have one, you should lean into that- absurd color, zebra interior, whatever.
After I thought about it, I gotta admit, he was right.

Hey, y’all! Not much to report, I’m afraid. I am dismal at taking pics of my day-to-day life. I’ve been working a fair amount, and the weather has finally cooled off in WNC. I snapped this is the employee parking lot at the Inn, the other day:
If there’s one thing I love about Asheville, it’s that it is often sunny here, even in the winter.We went out for a date night this past weekend. Had a lovely meal and went to community theatre production of Avenue Q that starred some friends of ours. True to form, the only pic I got was of dinner:
Otherwise, I’ve just been steady snuggling dogs, and enjoying my heavy gear being back in the rotation! Also, I am very glad to have gotten the opportunity to try out the 888 cut. It’s one of the best fits that I’ve found for my body, for sure.

On Wednesday I had to go in for my yearly MRIs. Now word yet on the results, but I don’t expect any shockers, as my MS symptoms haven’t really progressed.
Marcia kept me company at the hospital. I asked the tech if I could take a pic of the mri machine, and he said no.It’s been a little rainy today—I made the dogs go on a walk, though. This is a perfect capture of what happens to Nico almost daily if I’m not carefully monitoring where Mia aims:
Mia was snuggling her ball in the gloom
And now I’m starting work. Bummed I haven’t gotten to watch any of the World Series games this year. Locker room silly selfie:

Thanks, @RoxRocks86! I don't expect I'll hear anything from the doc until at least Monday, so we'll see what she has to say, then.

The cut really suits you @sabergirl
-
Gracias, @Megatron1505. I really want to get a pair of my own in this cut. I'm hoping for a regular XHS to drop sometime in the future.

All of a sudden it’s fall! I’ve been trying to enjoy the outdoors while it’s still bearable, walking in the hood, or out in the woods when there’s time.
Oh, and there was Halloween. I sat out on the stoop to give out candy in a onesie—which qualifies as the laziest costume, ever.

^ Gorgeous fall colours in the trees ^

Fall in the Appalachians is tough to beat.

First off, I want to apologize for the late start of my leg of the tour. I've been either traveling or at work for all but 3-4 days over the last 6 weeks. Anyway, I arrived home last night around midnight from 2 weeks offshore and got the chance to open up the beauties. Thanks so much to @sabergirl for the amazing looking denim and the chocolates! It's been a while since I've worn some 21 oz goodness and these are already incredibly soft and comfy. My 633-18's are going to get a break for the next month while I try my best to put a hurting on this beautiful pair!

^^ Great pictures Clint. That ramen looks delicious

Not the most eventful day but I did get a nice surprise from IHUK!
Started the day off doing some yard work. It’s been neglected for the past 6 weeks and having numerous old pecan trees doesn’t help as they drop a shocking amount of leaf litter and pecans. I’ll have to upload after pics tomorrow because I ran out of daylight.
I ate a pretty damn good leftover lunch:
This beauty showed up today. Thanks to the IHUK crew for the lightning fast shipping!
Finished off the night with some bun from a neighborhood Vietnamese trailer and washed it down with some 25 year old rum from our Costa Rica trip last month.

So, it's been a pretty busy week for me so here's a quick update:
Most mornings start like this:
Stella won't do her business in the yard so she gets 3-4 walks daily:
This is down the street from our house, we're about a 10 minute walk from downtown Austin:
We had a little scare last Sunday, Stella was acting funny and somehow she had a damaged cornea so she had to wear the cone of shame for a while to prevent her from pawing her eye. She was not happy:
We've been trying to cook at home more often so my wife and I have made some pretty tasty meals at home:
We had our close friends over last night for some curry noodles, smoked chicken wings and piri piri beef:
Went out for Ramen again the other night and I rocked out my classic IHSH-12 with the 888's:
I had a few meetings about our pending addition and drilled a core sample to determine the slab thickness which was fortunately 4" thick:
My wife and I had the opportunity to see Gary Clark Jr at the Moody Theater downtown. He put on a hell of a show for the hometown crowd! He brought up a few guest musicians including Steve Ray Vaughan's brother, Jimmie Vaughan.
