How is everybody today?

TGIF, to bad my weekend will be wasted driving up to NH though... oh well I guess you have to take one for the team sometimes.
What's everybody up to this weekend?

Hey is it just me or is RM the first thing you check when you get into work?

I check my work e-mail first. Then it's play time for nine hours. :p

Looking forward to spinning the wheels with Wife and MMcG tonight. It's awesome outside. Tomorrow will be chores day. Sunday I am heading down to Maryland for a week. I'll be riding with BikeGeek Sunday and Riderx during the week. :) Oh yeah, and I guess I'll attend that work training class I am going down for. :think:

Bwahhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm waiting for my classes to be over so I can switch back my hours so I can get more riding in, I mean so I can miss the summer vacation drivers... :)

Where will you be riding in Maryland? I'm hoping to be down there Memorial day weekend....
Let me know how it is.

Mornin Stosh.

Today is the big day... ordering the parts for my build.

Signed up with Netflix yesterday... going to burn some movies to bolster the movie collection before the big move. I want to have some kickass movies to watch once the big screen goes up.

Weekend looks to be pretty slow - rain and mother's day and all that jazz.

I check my e-mail first, then a couple of other boards, then RM. I check e-mail first because it's work related... gotta make sure there's no crisis I need to deal with. I check the other boards before RM because I know I'm going to spend the most time on RM.

oh, one other thing... I setup vBulletin on my server yesterday. vBulletin is the software that runs message boards like this one. Today I have a lot of configuring to do, but it's fun work. A hell of a lot better than the dribble I've been doing for the last few weeks.

Yo Stosh.

Had a killer ride with my sis last night..I'd just rebuilt her Zaskar for her (frikkin bike is like 23lbs or something outrageous!) Found two new trails and a sweet new booter! Good ride.

On the flip side I'm getting jerked around by my school, a month before I'm to begin the program...22 months has just turned into 31 months!:mad: Its not the time so much as the $$ it will cost that is bothering me.....oh well, it must be done.:rolleyes: ;)

Hey Babs, lets try another mid-week next week....MBC is close to me in Hamden, so we should hit West Rock after work for the super cardio ride!:devil:

Good morning everyone.

RM is the second thing I check after my work email, and it's a close second. It used to be about 4th or 5th on my list of sites I hit first thing in the morning, but now RM is the first site I check.

I sent it to both your e-mail addys.

In any event we won the lottery at MBW for the cabin. I know you weren't overly for it but I'm pretty excited. If you haven't seen them they have pics up on their website.

Nice! I actually don't even check my work e-mail because I don't get to much good stuff in there... :)

Just cut a check for $2k and we'll call it even. If it doesn't cover all the costs I'll pick up the rest.

A Belated good morning to you all.

I'm psyched to ride with MBC and IAB tonight - and maybe chow down on some Barb's Pizza afterwards. :D

Worked late again last night - but was able to have a nice dinner at Black Eyed Sallys with an older woman. :) Then we played some pool and then caught a set of a really good Blues/Jazz guitar player and his band.

We had our receipt from dinner so we didn't have to pay a cover charge either. :cool:

Nope I didn't even get a good night hug or kiss - so I'm not sure what she thought of me, but I had a fun time so it was all good.

I feel like I'm in high school again though - ending dates is so friggin weird. Do you hug her good night, do you shake hands, do you kiss, do you do nothing and just say goodnight?

:confused:

The only way a date should end is sneaking out of bed in the morning.

Yeah, but it would have been nice to get some sign that she was attracted to me......a hug or a little peck on the cheek or something.

I mean I got a light hug when she met me at the restaurant, but nothing when the night ended. Perhaps she didn't have as much fun as I did, but she seemed to be having a great time.:think: :( :confused:

Yeah, that is weird and a little mean. Maybe she's being overly cautious 'cause she's "older"???:(

I wouldn't stress on it too much...first dates are sometimes hard to get a good read on people.

At the end of my first date with my bf he shook my hand. We had be sitting my car in front of his place for over an hour talking, and he just shook my hand :confused: Turns out he was just really nervous and didn't want to go too fast.
