I’ve anecdotally found that female motorcyclists obey the laws and don’t fill me with seething rage, like males do.

My proofreader always leaves the best notes, like this one about why he changed a whomever to whoever: Damn, this one was a real bugger. Ultimately, the pronoun turns out to be the subject of its own clause rather than the object of a preposition, unlike what the word of might suggest.

It started as a joke about wanting to do a half ass Hyrox but two weeks later I now have a half ass sled. I know I should paint it but that would ruin the asthetic.
A half ass workout sled built out of lumber and a pallet.

A little music Monday with Protomartyr. This album has been on repeat for two weeks now and encapsulates all my current anxieties, but with a trumpet! For fans of Joy Division, Cursive, and Murder by Death.

Remembering that I need to tell folks I have a new book coming out in a few months. Like mysteries, barbecue, unicorns, and... barbecued unicorns? Fantastic beasts and how to eat them, y'all! Review copies available. mybook.to/creaturecomf...

On a scale of 1-10 how midlife crisis is it to sign up for a Hyrox? It’s between that or getting into model trains.

Last questions then (probably): Are you looking to get in and need lifeguards and changing areas or are you just strolling for the view?

How long to you intend to stay? It's a long, steep walk down to the beach itself that eats up a lot of time. I used to bike the PCH a lot and if you're looking just to stroll, I'd hit Sunset Beach and walk the path for a while. Huntington too is accessible but then you have Huntington people.

Depends what you're looking for in a beach. That state beach is gorgeous, but it's also $25 to get in. You can drive just a little further down PCH to Seal Beach and park for free. Little CB has a tidepool we used to take my son to. Crystal Cove is the best but also pricey. And steep.

Glad I bought Jon Oliver's Buc-Off hat a while back. I'm Texan but left the state before this chain went viral, so have never stepped inside one. And now I don't need to.
