'Morning! Last night was exciting as hell. 30 minutes of cardio on the evil stair machine followed by grilling a steak, doing some laundry, and taking out the garbage.

Wife and I are skiing tomorrow. I haven't skied in three weeks because of work, so I'm really looking forward to it. Speaking of work, I got a stellar performance review yesterday which was nice. It came with the standard 4% raise which I'll take.

Friggin' finally Friday...Nada mucho today - hopefully headed to EMS to kill a gift certificate with some new Five Ten shoes then hit the gym.

Saturday = heading up to Elevate Cycles to pay off some bike debt, and a spaghetti dinner at a local house of worship. Sunday = maybe a little street ride, then hopefully starting the R9 overhaul, or at least pulling the wheels apart for a new build. Getting ride of the DT Swiss 6.1's and moving back to Sun MTX - How would winter camo rims go with a silver/black setup - look silly or not?

Just got another component sponsorship offer to boot, but I need to mull it over - works out to be almost the same as bike shop discount...hmmmm.

Good Morning!!!

Yeah......got here a little late today. I took Colin to daycare this morning as Justine had to be at work a bit early. She's got the whole morning routine with him down to a science, but me........not so much. :busted:

Got a wild hair up my as5 and went by Lowes to pick up paint for our hallway and foyer yesterday after work. I taped everything up last night and plan on spilling paint everywhere after I leave here in a few hours. Justine is partying with the girls this evening, so Colin and I are having a Dad/Little Dude night tonight. I expect nothing less than total chaos and scattered Cheerios the whole time. :clapping:

Morning.

Ok night last night. My son is still kinda sick, so he's not going to sleep as easily as he normally does. He was up until 9:30 last night which is 2 hours past his normal bedtime. Made for a rough morning as he did not want to get up today. :(

Headed to the LBS tomorrow as well, to pay off some bike debt.. Other than that, nothing planned for the weekend. Think we're going to try to go out to eat tonight, I'm sick of cooking. lol!!

Oh, and Jim, I'm on the fence about the camo rims... :think:

Morning - good night at the rink last night. Had a coffee cake muffin and some coffee for breakfast and I'm trying to get the settings right on this new flat screen monitor I received for my office PC yesterday.

It seems weird to me to have so much screen in front of me! Font sizes seem real small though. I think I need to have my IT admin set things up optimally for me visually.

Hoping to ride on Saturday and maybe even Sunday too! :monkeydance:

Hope the kid gets better!

You going to the Clifton Park Elevate? What time - I'll meet ya there with my little one!

Thanks for the camo color, I am on the fence about it as well, may go with basic black, $5 less per rim!

morning...

I just LAYED INTO a kid for not listening to directions in my level 1 woods class! :disgust1: maybe the third time is a charm... cause he already screwed up a piece of his clock 2 times... (all this after countless speaches about getting his head in the game cause he has screwed up several other pieces of this project...) I even made the joke before all of this... of taking bets on the over under of how many board feet extra he is going to need to complete his project! :disgust1:

last night I hung out and cooked a nice chicken stirfry with some fried rice made with brown rice... it was a little different in texture and tast, but still good! :thumb:

messed around on the bongo board and hung with the girls... thats about it!

Tigg, I hope the little one is feeling better soon!

GH... Sweet slinging paint with a little one around is always fun!

It's an awesome f'in morning. I've got to work in a few but it's warming up this evening to about 19º and we've got some pretty fresh snow on the ground, so tonight we are going to get some DH skiing in, and tomorrow it's time for a little XC. I can't wait.

I also had a killer job interview yesterday, and I've already been asked back for a second interview. This weekend is celebration weekend for me.

Afternoon all. I am tired today. Woke up ultra early and couldn't get back to sleep so I got up and did work. :disgust1: My cat is REALLY sick. He's lost 8 lbs. in about 2 months and is vomiting everything he eats. He's at the vet today for another round of testing (We're up to almost $500 in bills now) so hopefully they can get him feeling better. Initially, they thought cancer, but tests came back negative. Poor guy :(

Sq-Earl and I are supposed to go out to dinner & a movie tonight, but I have no clue what's playing and hollywood.com is blocked at work so I can't plan ahead. I am going to try to call them and see what's playing.
