0 degrees C on my ride to work this morning.

Made a cajun-asian fusion shrimp and pasta dish in the wok for dinner last night. One of the kids had a friend over who doesn't like shrimp....she ate about 10.

Planning a trip to either Helsinki or Copenhagen for November break, leaning towards warmer Copenhagen.

Good Morning all. My work at home day has been ruined by this whore of a storm on the east coast. No three hour conference call for me....and by conference call I mean bike ride.

Guess I will go get a cup of pumpkin spice coffee and carry around my matching hand bag all day.:rofl:

Why ya goin' to the airport? Flying somewhere?


Hello, monkeys! Can someone please tell me wtf I did to my hamstring? I woke up yesterday and it was sore, and now it hurts even more. Not cool, man...not cool.

It's raining today like Sam Bradford's bombs will this Sunday over the Seahawks' defense.

Morning monkeys!

WTF are you doing up so early BV?

Glad I'm not in the field today. The poor guy that is is going to be soaked, and he admitted to me that he doesn't have rain gear, and was unable to get some last night. All I have to do is go into the office for a short bit today.

Awoke to rain like a double bladdered cow pissin' on a flat rock. A real toad stranggler out there. And tornado warnings. And a hour long 16 mile commute. And now I have water in my internets.

But it is my Friday.

Got another cord of wood dropped off this morning. Need to find a few pallets to start stacking things up.

Last night, I got most of the stumps cleared out of my compost heap area. I pounded the stakes into the ground, and got the first course of wood down for the walls. Now it's raining like a mofo. Hopefully things will clear up, or it's gonna be another tractor maintenance post on the blog this weekend.

Morning all. It's High School Open House night and we're supposed to get hammered with rain so I wouldn't be riding anyway. My band is shaping up pretty well so far this year so I am pretty happy. I just wish I wasn't "teaching" so many periods of Art! Heading to Ra-cha-cha for the weekend for some friendly festivities so I need to get my stuff together for that tonight before I head back to school to chat with my students parents. Fun, fun!

Time for more coffee!

Good morning.
Sorry to hear about your friend Mike.

I spent Tuesday night and Wednesday morning with teh food poisoning. I haven't been so sick in many years. I'm back in the office today, cautiously sipping water trying to get rehydrated. Ugh.

BV: where are you off to?

Lost a very good friend to brain cancer last night. :(
:( sorry to hear this. How long was the battle?

In my world - another pretty warm day in the high 80's with plenty of sun. I'm going to go for a ride at lunch and then after work I'm helping with the Webcyclery cross race followed up by beers with some friends on my new deck!:thumb:

Because of my bum wrist and forced time off the bike, I changed my timing belt, water pump, thermostat, crank seal, cam seals, valve cover gaskets, crusty vacuum tubing, misc o-rings and a cv boot. You gotta love air tools.

Besides that, I checked my bank account and it's payday!!!

Morning all.

House was appraised yesterday and from what my real estate person said, everything went well. We are also officially approved for the home loan. We also had a quote made on refinishing the hardwood floors in the house. Hopefully with us removing all of our physical contingencies, we will be able to get into the house a little early so we can have the floors done before we move in.

Sorry for your loss man. =\

About 18 months. He actually had a very good quality of life through the vast majority of it. He went downhill quickly just in the last few weeks. He will be missed.
Sorry to hear about that.

My pops went from awesome in January to gone in February. I was blown away at how fast it was. A good quality of life is the best thing for anyone.

Do you have a conditional approval in writing? The language should be We approve this loan as long as the Title work clears. Congrats!

Sorry to hear the news. It's amazing how fast they go from good to bad. The last two years both my mom & my bf's mom passed from cancer... we'll be thinking about you & your friend

Our secondary fvcking blows. I don't doubt it.



Smashed up my ankle playing soccer last night. Hobbling around with a big ice bag taped to it sucks. Don't think it's anything too bad, hopefully it'll feel good enough to ride this weekend.

Oh, and muslims may tell you that they're peaceful, but if you really watched the news when 9/11 happened, all of them were cheering and clapping.
