rafe is a couple days into keto and BIG ANGY. caleb is on an allergy trip and he is also kinda angy. new year’s eve was great, the movie was okee, and we hope everyone is doing their best so far in 2024.

HIGH LOWS
rafe’s high-low
high: time off work
low: no snacks

caleb’s high-low
high: new year’s eve
low: NYE mental prep

HOT HOT TOPICS
– caleb needs to rejoin the government as a 2nd job, just to take care of my paperwork. all agencies, he can just come in as a trouble shooter. 90 business days to update one number is excessive
– how often have you actually stuck with your new year’s resolution?
– where’s the other cream of [insert thing] condensed soups? why can’t I find cream of beef, pork, fish.
its always just chicken and mushroom…
– what are the new years traditions for your family? both growing up and current.
– do you sing “auld lang syne” on nye?
– what insane headline will we have this year? predict the craziest event for this year.
– it has been said that even bad pizza is good. to each their own with their pizza topping choices. my biggest concern with “bad pizza” is that it isn’t cooked properly. all too often, the center isn’t cooked right and since you take a bite out of the middle of a pizza first once it is sliced, that first bite can make or break the pizza.

sometimes the sliding screen door just comes of its track and you have to be prepared to deal with it. hey amazon is going to charge for ad-free streaming. cancel your amazon prime! also the buddies talk about christmas. word of the week is CHRYSALISM: the tranquility of being indoors during a thunderstorm.

HIGH LOWS
rafe’s high-low
high: christmas
low: screen door

caleb’s high-low
high: christmas
low: amazon bullshit

HOT HOT TOPICS
– what is the most nonsensical way you’ve seen to get christmas gifts home on a plane?
– celebrating the new year happens too late in the day. staying up past midnight gets so much harder as we get older. perhaps it is time to have new year’s eve celebrations at 8:30 pm so we can be in bed at a reasonable hour.
– I’m staying at an airbnb. is business time™ allowed there?
– when do you you change from driving to taking a plane? i.e. how far, how many people, etc.?
– best meal this year. be specific (it can’t be “cheese” it could be a cheese board with three goat cheeses, salami, and rye bread from this one place)
– why do we even have new year’s in january? couldn’t it be any day? maybe an astronomical event like the solstice? or maybe when it’s nice outside so we can see people? if you had the power, when would we celebrate new year’s?
– I declined a promotion recently because I wasn’t happy with the offer. the second time, I said maybe. it seems like I am in the position of power in the negotiations, so I’m going to shoot for the sky. I don’t think there is enough of this mentality and approach in the workplace nowadays.
