How is everybody today?

Nothing much to report here. Just going to be doing some homework today after school on this rainy nasty day. I'm just hoping it doesn't stick around till the weekend.


Have a great day everybody!

I'm going out of my focking mind here this morning. These women in my department won't stop bothering me! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! "This isn't working. Why did it do this? Why can't I print? How do I get this thing to work?" :(

Doh. You should start giving them noncommital answers... "Dunno. Maybe call I.T. Not sure what the fix is."

Morning Stosh, IAB. Gotta drive down to CT tonight to move a bunch of furniture.. Ugh.

Mornin Stosh.

Spent a good portion of last night working around the house. Got the garage cleaned up - er, all our crap piled up in one bay - so we could get both cars in for the night. First time I've parked in a garage in I can't tell you how long. It was a cool thing.

Also spent some time cleaning/lubing my bike. Hadn't done it in a while and it was in desperate need of some attention.

As for today... basically just the normal stuff. Looks like no riding tonight - the wife is working so it's just me and the kid. My local MTB club is trying to get with the DEC to do some trail work on one of the local trail networks. It's been so wet this year that trails are getting wider by the week as people ride/hike around the muddy sections.

Morning Stosh - worked late last night, then took my son Liam to get new hockey skates, a stick, some tape and new gloves. He hits the ice on Saturday at 8:00 a.m. then drove him back to his mom's and then I had to drive back to my apartment. Man I put a lot of miles on my van last night. Maybe I should get one of those hybrid vehicles.

raining here today - not sure what to do about soccer practice - if it doesn't rain too hard I think we will practice as planned tonight. First game is Saturday at 11:00 a.m.

Yeah, well, it'll be the last time I have to drive down there... The masters program that my girlfriend was enrolled in was awful and she decided (wisely) to not spend $12,000 to be miserable for a year. So this is the last trip moving stuff back to New Hampshire.

Granby, here I come.

I may take some this weekend. THere's still lots of construction garbage around and random piles of junk.
Oh cool!
I take it you didn't make it to Paragon last weekend?

Man I was down there in that area and there is so much land down there that nobody patrols. There are so many fireroads and what not criss crossing the countryside. I wish I had a guide to show me around outside of paragon.

No, too much other stuff going on, mostly getting settled in the new house. Hopefully after this weekend, most of the "moving" type stuff will be done (getting furniture where it needs to go, getting stuff put away, etc.). We will still have lots of painting to do, but that can wait until winter gets here - I'm not about to waste a summer/fall afternoon painting.

I enjoyed a wonderful communication breakdown last night. Translation, I didn't do anything, when I could have been having fun.

Hey, just 'cause I'm not obligated to drive down there doesn't mean I can't do it anyway :D - it's less than 2 hours away.

Not terribly far from Manyunk - 30 mins with good traffic. Down Rt 1, then go West on Kelly Dr/Ridge Ave to Main Street. I'm a bit farther north from where she is looking to move to. Sometimes I take Rt 1 to get to Wissahickon which is close to Manyunk.

I did chores yesterday. Got home in time to mow the grass before the rains. Sprayed some weed-killer around... Then back to the g/f's house to grill up some burgers.

Granby is the next town over from us.
there's a stretch of the metacomet that starts near the old newgate prison in granby - its an out and back, but its a pretty good tough, rocky ridge ride. some big up hils, some hike-a-bikes, some sweet downhills. too bad its raining today or we could go.

I used to go to the old Newgate prison when I was a little kid... Good times!
