Enjoying sitting down at work today after two days of riding. It was a strange weekend where I had cramping problems but I still managed to ride way faster from the last split and to the finish line then the rest of the day of course given that there were no big climbs at the end. I am not sure if it was general bad hydration and prep last week or because I have not done enough long rides in the last 30 days. I suspect the lack of +100km rides.
feel like crap
zero ride time
wife mad because I didn't buy flowers
slept like crap so no morning spin sesh
blergh

Recovery back to healthy is slow, wifey is down with fever again, work sucks, weather sucks too.
Rise and fucking shine! Had an outstanding few days of riding here so far. LOVED Little Creek Mesa and Guacamole. We'll see what today brings. Coffee first because lots of fancy tequilas last night.
Rainy... again... blah...
Went for a small ride yesterday in the rain because I'm fed up with Mother Nature

even i didn't fuck that one up. wifey's MD present was clipless shoes. I even got her a card for the kids to sign.
Bleary eyed. Worked 5-10 PM. Washed car on way home--I've been slacking on that, been a week maybe? Watched GoT, saw Trogdor burninate the villagers. Then read a bit of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as I'm near the end, called it at 12:40, and then fed kid 3 a bottle from 4:30-5 or so.
any recommendations on auto insurance?
need to change that soon, got best quotes from brogressive, but, hear some varying remarks on their claim process

oh it's not like I didn't buy her shit. I just didn't buy her enough shit. she doesn't care about valentines, birthdays, our anniversary or christmas
but yeah mother's day
FTS came in hot this am. Haley had a near breakdown because in-laws woke her up at 4am when getting ready for their flight home. Dropped the Subie off for 60k service this am, at least the stuff I don't have time to do. They really don't like it when you bring in parts, especially after they quote you the whole package and you rape their mark-up.
Driving all over metro today for client management meetings and have a call with my manager later today. Apparently my singular day of meetings last week already bumped me into a semi-high production spot of our field reps YTD (as expected). Guessing he wants to discuss how he is going to get me out more and sooner.
FTS is really high though. Once I get my catch up done, I'll be spending some time on Mint...

Lots of problems, no resolutions, all speculation. Support is of nearly no use at all...
Repeat after me: You're not my mother.
note: this only works once kids old enough to make her their own shitty cards/precious memories etc.
It's always good to set the stage when they are young.
And yell a lot when they fuck it up.
plenty of shitty gifts for mom. I even got her a shitty gift. The kids are too young for brunch and it pissed rain all day, otherwise I would have taken them out for a drag.
Oh yeah, we sent my mom flowers but she was out of town all weekend and is now headed to italy, FML. Those will die on her doorstep.
Morns'.
Was up in Grand Lakes yesterday, explored, poked around, ate lunch.
Stopped at Hot Sulfur Springs for a good afternoon soak then hit the buffet in Blackhawk on the way home.
The soak was great but it took 3 showers to get the rotten eggs smell off my skin.

Wifey commented that I didn't get her a card or say anything to her. My response of "you're not my mother and it's a marketing holiday" didn't go well; expected, but not well. You'd figure after 10 years married an 6 years with a kid she wouldn't expect too much...
Mornin!
Hanging out at a buddy's house in Bend for a bit. The area reminds me of CO.

I fell asleep 5 minutes in. First thing Erynn says to me when I wake up this morning was "Danerys burned the city down even though they surrendered" #spoiler
dirty hippie smell>Sulfur smell
6yo is old enough to do that shit herself. Wife is being unreasonable.
That said - good thing you expected it to go poorly.
my 4 year old is able to sign a card. if i'd had my act together he could've picked it out too.6yo is old enough to do that shit herself. Wife is being unreasonable.

Bought wife gift card for massage. Got cards. Got flowers for wife, mom, MiL and SiL. It worked out. Went over to the inlaws yesterday and just hung out with family and grilled some burgers and hotdogs. Overall, pretty chill. We were back home by 3 and the kids were spent, so win/win. The older I get, the more annoying pretty much all holidays are, especially the 'just buy stupid shit' for people ones.
the joys of co-parenting- we didnt have the girls this weekend so did fun adult stuff instead.
Isn't that what they all are? Just wait... the annoyance *continues* to get worse. Xmas is, by far, the most irritating.
Running around today getting crap for camping this week. Toilet paper and baby wipes acquired, I figure those are high priority. Hoping border peeps dont confiscate my Pink Lady apples and sandwich stuff.
Looking forward to this. Praying it doesn't rain.
