I would say the holidays are one of the leading causes of seasonal depression, for parents who lost a child, widows, single parents, etc etc thinking about what once was or could have been.
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because of family and food and football. My parents have always done a big thing for people without families or nowhere to go so it’s a mixing pot of friends and strangers. Sports aren’t my biggest thing but it’s a tradition and I’ve always been a Cowboys fan even when they’re shitty (like they have been the past few games)
I’m excited to be leaving work early and hitting up the store for a bunch of stuff. Gonna gain a couple dozen pounds this weekend

seasonal holidays outdate corporate capitalism. when I said seasonal depression I meant the effects of lack of vitamins from the sun.

I confess i just did 20 jars g2g and i still feel like im behind. Why is it if i see more than a few empty jars sitting i feel like there wasted potential and need to put something in them even though i feel like i got to much going on already. Damn mush cult..

I confess that I try to "over do" the number of jars of spawn so that numbers are in my favor, for room to have some failure. I figure if I get lucky I just have more clean spawn than I know what to do with. Which is better than not having clean spawn due to only inoculating a few jars and have contamination hit. So far, since building the flow hood, jars are looking MUCH better than they used to.

Totally cool! Offered the same with Christmas to my former roommate, whose dad is a cocaine addict who (when he was still living there) even wanted him to rail with him while he actually only did weed. His mom never wanted him from birth. Real shitty situation. Anyway, just as we were leaving to pick him up, he called me and said "Don't come, it's too hard. I just wanna be alone. I'll see you tomorrow." Broke my heart.
I'm a sensitive guy and things like these get to me.
Did mushrooms make me gay?

I have another confession. I am running out of shelve space due to so many jars of spawn going right now. Not sure if I can even fit the 20 I will be knocking up in a bit.

There's an easy solution to that. Below the shelf, there's an area that holds jars perfectly. We call that area "floor".

Yea I know but I work in my basement and some times when it rains I get a bit of water on the floor. Nothing crazy but I don't like the idea of jars being down there on the floor. I had built me some nice wooden ones, but well they ended up being stole for "movie shelves" when I took a break, and now I am stuck with the plastic Plano shelves, lol.
**EDIT
I may just have to cut down the plastic pipes that go between each shelve. I can only go 3 shelves high due to height limitations, BUT If I shorten those pipes I can probably get all 5 shelves on the unit. I don't know why I didn't think of it earlier.

Funny, I was actually visualing your shelves as I was typing the previous msg, and thought to myself 'he should just shorten the distance between shelves, he's probably got room to stack em double" 
And doubling is also an option... I am always constrained in space and you wouldn't believe how much I stack sometimes... And not even just myco stuff either, no, right now, my fridge has a stack that consists of a Cordyceps jar, a cordyceps culture jar, and a cat treat tin. Next to it is 2 other stacked jars and a wobbly stack of petri's I should dispose. I won't though. Today's my lazy day. And tomorrow doesn't look very good either.

LOL, I do have room to double stack but don't know how that would affect my GE hole. The nice wooden shelves I had were built for storing jars so they only had a bit of room above them, but they were needed else where in the house lol.

The polyfill usually keeps jars from really sitting on the lid, so they stand at a bit of an angle. You can also stack em alternating, so the poly is in between the jars... I don't mean upside down btw, more like how they make a wall out of bricks.

IDEA. (Imagine grains and not fruit) You can get these metal studs at any building supply or salvage/second hand store. For those who are unfamiliar, Metal studs are vary common and a direct replacement for traditional wood used in construction. I am sure one could custom build a jar rack tailored to there space.

Most likely i will be going to the bars potluck for my turkey. It's all good.

That is a badass idea NC. Very clever
Kinda bummed about this pan cyan mini mono. I pasteurized the casing layer above 170 for a good 20 minutes on accident, didn’t think it was gonna make a big deal but it bloomed some trich overnight.

First tub with mold in a good six months.

I confess I was looking for a t-shirt in my dresser yesterday and I recalled that I used to keep colonizing jars in my dresser...before I fessed up to my family that I was growing. Ha ha... open up your sock drawer and there in the back behind the socks are a bunch of colonizing pints! Needless today FAE was not what it should have been but it worked out.
After colonizing behind the socks and underwear .... off to the secret SGFC behind the box behind the cat box in the spare closet downstairs. Ha ha! good times.
