How is everybody today?

I think the cold snap has finally broken up here in NY. It's still going to be chilly but not nearly as cold as it's been the past week+.

Anybody got any big plans for the weekend? I think we'll mostly be doing wedding stuff. It's only 4 months away now.

Hope ya all have a great day!

Goooood morning! They are ripping down our parking garage at work, and everytime the huge tractor swings a blow to the garage, the entire building shakes. It's like I'm sitting in a massage chair! :D BOOM! Shake. BOOM! Shake.

:dancing:

This weekend? Hmmm....perhaps a ride Saturday, and visiting a friend Sunday. WeRd.

Good morning,

Missed the Wednesday Night Ride last night, knee is finally to the point that will probably have to break down and go get it checked out.

Other than that pretty quiet here. But then I'm not at work yet either. Time to head in.

Everyone have a good day today.

I'm sorry I must have missed your post about your knee, so now I'll ask. What is the problem with your knee?

Yup, blowing off work tomorrow and going for a ride with my bro whose wife will be giving birth this weekend. After that, he will not have much time to ride, so we figured tomorrow should be the day.
It's my first MTB ride of the season.

Saturday I have 3 hours sectioned off in the moning for a road ride.

The rest of the weekend I'm just chilling with the wife & kid.

Depending on weather I may try to hit the gym hard this weekend. I've been slacking a lot lately.

More conference stuff today. I'm in waaay over my head down here, but I'm getting enough bits and pieces to make it all worth while (I think). Saw some work from Bert Monroy - DAMN he is good. This is one of his... created from scratch, totally in photoshop and illustrator. No photographic elements at all. And this isn't even one of his better ones. His attention to detail is rediculous.



Yesterday I played a lot with masking and adjustment layers. Today, more adjustment layers, some photography stuff, and working with type.

Spent some time at the pool yesterday playing on my laptop. The pool was a very good place to be yesterday. Doesn't look like I'm going ot have a chance to get back there today, but definitely tomorrow. Doug - I'll see if I can get some pics for ya. :wink:

Dude...no offense...but your GMT posts are super depressing. Worse than mine. Need a hug?
That's more boss like. :thumb: He could tell us about his avatar change. That would interest me.

I liked his "Mr. Excitement" custom title better than "balls."
I liked "bump" better than any of my other....nevermind, that won't work. :think:

Sorry, late response.

Been bad for years, I was able to build it up fairly well by cycling but something must be floating around in there now. It tends to work intermittently. Time to get it checked out.

Gee, I guess climbing with the 16 cog on the single speed wouldn't have anything to do with this, would it?

Over there somewhere.
I think I will tell you guys about the avatar change, I've been playing Need For Speed Most Wanted Black Edition. Still a relative newcomer to it.

Sounds better than mine..
Laundry, run to the pharmacy, and take the dog down to the vet. Then maybe squeak out for a ride, if I can leave time to get my "freelance receipts" together for my taxes....receipts...yeah right.
