How is everybody today?
Nothing much to report from this front....
Somehow I managed to throw my back out walking up the stairs to our office yesterday.... The only time I have back problems is when I spend a day lifting heavy things... this time I just turned a little as I walked up the stairs and now my back is KILLLING ME..... I hate getting f'ing old........

'morning stosh. Pretty miserable weather here.

On the plus side, there's some light at the end of the tunnel for a project here at work. And I just found out that a local high school used a bunch of the pictures I took of a couple baseball games on their website.

Oh and the other thing pissing me off is I got a promotion a month ago..... with the promise of a significant wage increase.....


























My boss hasn't even sat down with me to talk about my wage increase yet...... but I'm doing the extra work load.....

'Morning. Backs are a funny thing, Stosh. Sometimes they just go out on ya. You'll be fine in a day or two.

I got out of work a little late yesterday, but MBC and I still squeezed in 20 road miles before the sun went down. I scouted a route this morning to bike to work. Good thing I drove because I took a wrong turn somewhere. I see where my mistake was though. It's a pretty good route. I'll try it next week (I'll park somewhere along the way until I build the strength for 70 miles in one day).

I have a hockey game tonight and was pretty bummed about missing a ride tonight. Turns out it's raining today, so it's a good night to play. :thumb:

Cool. Yeah, I figure I'll have to leave the house by 5:45 to start work by 8:30. I found several supermarket lots along the route that I can park in. The one I have in mind will shave 13 miles off each end of the ride. Looks like the route is pretty flat, so building the endurance won't take long.

ok... he's got a cold, so he doesn't sleep well with all the congestion. Otherwise he's doing well... had his 2 week checkup the other day - grew 1" and gained just over 1lb in the 2 weeks he's been home.

Morning

Yesterday I went to see the Dentist , to start the implant process on #19 , I ahve been dreading this , the tooth has been infected for over a year now it never bothered me , but I knew it had to be done , so he pulled the tooth , actually cut it in half first, renoved the gold crown then the 2 pieces of tooth, ( I have all the parts Maybe I post a Pic later ) then He cleaned out the Bone of the infection and and other stuff, and the Filled the Holes with a Bone graft material ( mixture of Crushed Human and Bovine bone ) then Stitched me up. was very sore all last night when the Novacain wore off , was popping percocets all last night , this morning my I am very Swollen , so I decided not go to work .

so Here I sit with one very large cheek.

mmmm breadcrumbs....

so I guess now I have to check my options on finding a place to shower so I can ride to work too. I think there are a few places in town I can crash. I can't have IAB riding to work while I rot in my car!

damn, you had an infected tooth for a YEAR? what are you, British? ;)

i wonder why they use bovine bone too...hopefully that's been screened well for BSE.

bummer about the mouth work, thank god for percocets, and don't veg out too much on the couch.

Stomach muscles are what supports the back. Strengthen them by doing variations of crunches, and stretch out every morning.

i helped roof a **** house yesterday. Imagine walking over a metal grated platform over poo to get to the roof hatch. it's a ****ty job. :)

w/ my 2nd kid, that time freed up around the 3rd year or so.

good luck.
Yea... I'm not expecting a whole lot of free time in the near future. I'm hoping to start riding to work next week, but we'll see...
 
Morning, :monkey:s!

Rode for three hours at Camp J with Jollytime and one of our local boys - we had a blast. JT goaded me into cleaning a jump I have been neurosing about for six months.

Oh and there is one section that has a super sweet long straight dh section............its sort of a valley so you pay for it with a climb but I predict hitting 45 mph or so Weeeeeeeeee! :D


AND outdoor volleyball starts next week! :thumb:

Well Since it wasn't bothering me and it wasn't , I was sent to several specialist to see if there was anything that could be done to save it , Plus the implant process isn't covered by Insurance so we are talking about $5000 out of Pocket . Yesterdays Appointment was $1500 , the next major appointment in 6 months is $2250.

Are you guys running double or triples on your road bikes? The fastest I can go on my road bike is 43 MPH. I can not get pedal resistance to go any faster.
