Morning Stosh!

Had some good T-storms roll through last night . the kids came running into our bed at 12:30 am , 3 am and 5 am

then On my ride to work I di a really good bone headed move.

I was going at a Good clip on a road ther ethe sun is 90 degrees to my right , so I was looking at my shadow on the road and notice how smooth my pedalling was, when I went off teh road it o some sand on the side. I didn't fall but I felt mighty stupid.

Good morning! I took a much needed day off from riding yesterday. My legs were feeling pretty tired. We'll get back on the road bikes tonight.

I booked a room at KT for the end of August. I'm stoked...I didn't know if we'd get up there this year.

The weather seems to have broken just a bit, and I have no meetings this afternoon, so I'm riding on my lunch break. I haven't been out at all yet this week, so I'm really itching to get out.

I'm pretty sure that I still own a bike... but... then again... I'm not totally sure....

Morning - picked up Liam and Connor from camp last night and had a good dinner with them at Shady Glen in Manchester. Burgers, Fries and shakes!

Then we chilled and watched Rock Star Supernova.

I think I may have close a million plus gift yesterday. Waiting to hear the details as the donor contacted the head of our cancer center about it instead of calling me. Sure hope it is a done deal so I can give my boss the old "Take this!"

Out of my mind, back in a moment.
Morning Stosh.

Regestration for next semester is today, so I have the entire day off except for registration at 11. Planning to do nothing but go for a ride, swim, study a little bit...pretty much that's about it.

Oh yeah, I should probably clean up around here a little bit, especially since I've got company thing weekend.

Good morning,

Ride at Trail 100 tonight, monsoon permitting. Will need it the way work has been the last week. This "doing more with less" crap really sux. I'm about ready to quit and open an eclectic coffee shop or something. 10% discount to all bikers. :D

Have a good day.

Good Morning!

I didn't even know it was Wednesday, thought it was Tuesday. Nothing new to report, had a relatively boring night last night. Went to bed early after sleeping for 4 hours the previous night.

Good Morning.

After baking in the oven we like to call "work" all day, I headed straight for the comfort of the A/C and cold beer. I basically just sat there, comatose, until the wife came home and set me loose on a couple of chores.


I did get on my bike to ride down the driveway and retrieve my mail. That counts, right?

I've been working on a proposal for $1.25M and I think the funding source approved it.
awesome! Congrats!

It seems this summer you have spent more time on your bike and with your boys/girlfriend then last summer. You seem to be in a better place this summer, congrats on that as well!

Wedding Update:



My dad just sent me a PowerPoint presentation of directions to and from the church/reception/parents house/hotel/highway.



At what point can I declare my parents clinically insane?
I am so glad we are paying for this and any parental influence is minimal.

They have a smaller satelite restaurant just up the street from me in the East Village.

Also, you were in Williamsburg, the hipster capital of Brooklyn (which is the hipster capital of the East Coast:trophy_br :trophy_br)


edit: Saint Lucia? Isn't that a sex spot? Saint Lucia???

My relationship with Laura is going great. And I've spent good quality time with the kids this summer.

so on that end I'm in a better place. Financially I'm in a suckier place after getting a not so favorable annual review this year after busting my ass and raising lots of money for this place for 5.5 years.

Morning. Another hot day. I've been on the trainer in front of the AC for the past 2 nights and in the pool. Almost done with my biking article (2000 words later!), and just have to throw in a sidebar on local trails. Stay cool everyone.

Just to close the loop on the Sox tickets, I can not go due to the fact that it's a 2:00 game and I have meetings I have to attend at work. Any other day and I would have played hooky.

I know you were all wondering.
