I think so... but at this point, I’m all good to go no matter the outcomes the next morning. I need 8 hours to sleep and I will do anything to get it.

I needed to get my mind off a lot of things going on, but since there's not much that one can do...I reverted back to an old thing I liked to do. I went for a drive.

Ended up on a 440km, 4 1/2 hour loop on some of the smaller highways. It was really enjoyable, and pretty relaxing overall.

Hmm, okay what do you take? I'd really like to try this. I'm bad all year, but once it gets to 20-30 degrees in the evenings in Calgary, I literally get like an hour of sleep some nights.

Even the single room units are great. Throw one in your bedroom and sleep like a baby!

Nice.

In my head you were at work, said #### this, went outside and jumped in a fire truck and took that on a countryside tour. Lights and sirens blaring and WhiteTiger with a sublime little smile just chillin'.

Nice, I also like just going for aimless random drives down the smaller backroads. I find it relaxing.

I've also definitely been headed to work, thought "screw this", pulled into a side street near work, called in sick, and took off for the day. There's something much more freeing doing that rather than planning an actual day off.

Aimless drives on backroads is nice. I also at times like driving roads at the dead of night. Like, 1-3 AM and driving around places I've never been before in Calgary. There's something weird and surreal/serene about driving around in the dead of night with barely anyone else out and also learning the roads of areas I rarely travel in. This is a little easier to do when I can sleep in a few hours the next day.

Got out on my rollerblades at the outdoor rink here for the first time in years the other day - my ankles aren't what they used to be but felt good to be out there again! Still have my shot power but my accuracy has gone to crap, haha. Will be getting out a lot more this summer, trying to lose weight and get in better shape.

That’s an awesome “anonymous” confession. Other than you and “us” does anyone else know of your level of mischievousnessosity?

Frankly....all you do is highlights.

Have you watched the Calgary Flames this year? I'd be shocked if you could cobble together a week's worth of highlights.
