    The buoy up here is going mental. Looks like VAS on the cam but I just got a call from a buddy as well, he's about to paddle out. Being an adult does suck.

    It was VAS this morning, been checking the cam every 20 minutes since 10... being adult sucks when you work during waves, it sucks worse when you have off and your jonesing at home for the wind to switch.

    that said how many hours ago did it switch in jersey/ whats LI doing right now. Timing my next session appropriately

    Gaff I like your work accessories. We'll get through this fellers.


    Funny thing is my direct boss, the sweet lady that she is, would let me do whatever I want. She knows what I do when I call out. The gosh darn higher ups are milking us and paying more attention though. Glad I don't have the responsibility she does.

    It does suck working when there is swell. But it's always the best day of the year when you can't get there. In reality it was pretty looking, nice sets but generally as weak as a wave can be. The outgoing tide really did a number on it and your 5 till dark session might just be the best of it other than the early morning incoming.
