nice and cool this morning: 45°. I could get used to this.

decent weekend was had, as far as weekends go. Went on a hike with the kids on Saturday morning.


Went on a solo bike ride Sunday morning

watched some racin, and then took my non-crippled son out for a bike ride on Sunday afternoon:

Knee is throttling this morning holy crap. But the road rash finally scabbed over mostly yesterday, after a week of leaking and bleeding, thank fuck.

Fuck this Monday. Its raining, my phone and email have been going crazy and the traffic was absolutely horrendous.

FTS @ 12. Trying to sort in my head how best to phrase asking the AVP in Products what my likelihood of getting position is in Jan, so I don't walk on the "super team" position now only to shoot myself in the foot. A lot can happen in a quarter and I don't want to nuke myself in that window stupidly.

Did a short loop at White Ranch super early. Note to self: pack lights when leaving the trailhead before dawn. I walked the first rock garden and did the climb by braille.

Feels like fall. Only supposed to hit 75 today. Perrrrfect bike weather. But the boot is still on my foot, the boot still on my foot...

Wife wanted to plant a sycamore tree so I called the nursery. What? 50% off? 16 feet tall? Sweet.

Sounds complicated. My major work-related decision right now is whether or not to take Wednesday off. Which, as you probably know, is a really easy decision.

:homer:

just be honest. lay out the situation. i'm guessing that's the position you'd prefer? tell him that. but if there's any risk its not gonna happen you're gonna make your move now.

ran 12 miles yesterday. totally walking with a not-so-gangsta limp today.
Doing Elbert next saturday if the weather is good then camping near aspen & hitting a show at Belly Up.
Then the half marathon the following weekend.
Think I will rest after that until ski season.

I'm going to, but I don't want to put him into a spot that forces his hand in one way or another. The company doesn't allow interviews without an available position or notifying the manager. The position got pulled for budget before we could set one up last time. The comp will be notably different too, possibly 30-40% lower in the Products position. However it's no longer a sales role, more a tangible skill set, which is something that I could really use at this point.

Morning monkeys! Rode lots this weekend, close to home so not much climbing or descending and yet I still had fun? My poison ivy patches are nearly cleared up and I slept until 9:30 today. Not sure how it can get any better...
