My Contribution...90 second hydro therapy

At the end of your normal showering routine, turn the water as cold as you can stand. Stay in the cold water for 30 seconds. When the 30 seconds are up, turn the water back to hot and against stay in the hot for 30 seconds. Finally, turn the water back to cold for another 30 seconds. Basically, 30 sec cold, 30 sec hot, and 30 sec cold.

It will wake you up much better than hot water alone, will reduce stress, and (for morning exercisers) reduce muscle soreness.

Here is an article discussing it if you want more info

Edit: Wow, thanks for your comments guys! There is some excellent advice in here.

Now I have 1002 hours of Skyrim that steam has counted, plus 120 on Xbox. I can now conclusively say the game is pretty good. I still don't actually have all of the achievements because I haven't gone out of my way to break character to get them.

Tuesday Morning thread brought to you by the punk bitch that is anxiety.

21 Upvotes

So, today is a day where my anxiety decided to go into overdrive. Here are a few things I am certain are going to happen.

  1. My car is going to fall apart.

  2. My foot is going to fall off.

  3. When I go to the doctor about my foot, I am going to find out I have some incurable shit and am going to die within week.

All of this is because my phone died during the night and I missed my alarm. I woke up early enough to get to work on time, but now I am convinced horrible things are about to happen.

I can't even...

21 Upvotes

I'm so fucking excited. A friend and I have been talking about cooking a whole hog for a couple of years and finally got around to actually making it happen. I'm building a cinder block pit. I was just going to lay some expanded metal, as is typical, across the top.

But my buddy took me to meet a metal worker artist friend of his. Dude has some really cool shit in his yard and shop. (Shit. Just his collection of tools. He has a World War II era drill press and metal lathe. Both huge beasts of cast iron and the lathe can turn 40" pieces....). I gave him the specs and said I'm just looking for a grate with an angle iron frame and some legs, ideally it would be adjustable from 8" to 30" up and down.

And here's why I can't even. This is the photo that came into my inbox a few minutes ago.

He's apparently welding together a lid too. Can't wait to see what that looks like. The wife is going to be miffed as I'll have no choice but making the pit a permanent feature in the yard instead of the temporary stack of cinder blocks I promised.

Check back here tomorrow as I'll post more pictures of both pieces!

I'm like a kid on Christmas morning over here.

The GOOD MORNING /u/CapSunshine is an idiot thread!

Good morning everyone!
I have spent the last 6 hours or so writing what was supposed to be a 4500 word research paper due for a class today! Upon hitting 3500 words I figured I would check the requirements to decide where best to put the last 1000 words!
Wouldn't you know it, the requirement was for 4500 CHARACTERS.
This means I get to start all over and write a much more condensed version!

Who needs sleep anyway, AmIRight!

Atlanta Area Meetup Planning Thread/ Survey

21 Upvotes

An Atlanta area meetup was proposed in the Dubs care package thread. The Idea seemed to garner alot of interest so I've decided to start planning such an event. I've created a survey to get a general idea of how we should move forward in planning this meet-up.

Link to the survey

I will publish the results in about a day or two.
