GOAL!!!!
When I decided to get my ass back in shape I set a goal of getting down to 220 from 275. I got there this morning!!
I think I might be able to go as low as 200 so I am going to give it a shot.

boys slept through the night. success! I, on the other hand woke up at 4 and couldn't get back to sleep. It's a coffee kind of day.
Yeah. I know what I get to do tomorrow night. Snows back onto the M. Wifey should be fine though. I'll just have her drive slow.@stoney - taking your wife's snow tires off her car worked!!
Granted - this *is* a weather forecast... but 3 inches of water in white format is, like, a lot.
Hello now then! Yesterday's crappy weather cleared up just in time for a 25 mile post-work road ride. That was a nice surprise. Still kind of cold out though. It was like insta-freeze as soon as I stopped pedaling.
can't wake up. already thinking about going to bed as early as possible tonight.
@eye dr. appt with son. taking forever. fts.
on the plus side, eye dr. assistants are almost as hot as dental assistants.
rear shock should arrive at cane creek for diagnosis and service tomorrow. will be interested to hear what they say about it. it sounded like i was being chased by a flock of wild geese when i rode.

working from home. taking the kid to an immunologist shortly. should probably see about getting a second cup of coffee in me.
Mornin!
Not much to report. Mounted an awning on my truck yesterday and got some tent walls in too. Now I'll have a sweet room to use whilst camping this year.

Bought the new Star Wars last night and watched it while I was on the bike. My 1 hour ride on the trainer ended up being 2 hours. Didn't get to sleep until almost midnight, so didn't get up early for study this morning. I'm supposed to have a run tonight, but have an after work meeting until 7, so if I run it's going to be in the dark.
Otherwise, meh and ball sweat. Massive ball sweat. Whenever I start working out again I have an appearance of massive ball sweat. Given it's 8am, it's going to make for a long day.

Slept in, coffee in hand. Having a pretty heated debate in my head about doing something/doing nothing. It's awfully nice out side but i'm feeling pretty damn lazy.

My daily struggle
Forearm holes feeling better. I may try to ride this afternoon (mental note: don't crash) before the "yay it's Spring in Colorado!" weather system moves in. More coffee and work for now.
Pics?
Srsly. This is the sage advice.
Howdy all. Kind of busy at work what with people being pulled for this and that and only 2 attendings in the morning rather than the more typical 3.
On the upside no one seemed to care that I ambled in 15 minutes late after dropping Mariko off at school.

MEH, raining here. I slept in until 7:30 again and it was good. My 3 day a week structured workout is really paying off I terms of overall energy and enjoyment. I now enjoy 30 minutes on the treadmill with mets from 7 to 10, 20 minutes on the eliptical at 7 mets and 15 minutes on the stationary bike at 5 mets. It's odd that what I do the most outside of rehab is what is hardest for me, too many years of taking the easy climbs and not enough road biking.
This is my second to last 20 hour work week so... I should probably go in and do something?

Where are you 'squeeb?
Watching roadies heads explode over the introduction of dics brakes on road bikes is entertaining and sad at the same time.
Wrong airline.
Yes, city traffic was my main reason to get a road bike with dics for my daily commute. It makes a big difference. Its nice not to have to ruin the rims too.
Wrong airport too.
They are hiring again, starting at $29 an hour and $45 an hour in 5 years. Tempting, but back to the bottom of the seniority list, and probably having to move to some shit hole like Midway, Dallas Love, or Skyharbor. No thanks.
Ride attempt aborted due to broken chain. Managed to nurse it home at still get 13 miles in, but I had to stop every 10 minutes or so and pinch the chain back together with my Gerber. Oh well, bad day of riding is better than a good day at work, right?
within 3-5 years (conservatively) most, if not all road bikes will be disc. at least bikes above $2k.
so much win..not
Random DOT drug test again..

i don't know, of the three airports listed at least Phoenix area has stellar riding.
Rode a ride this morning on Felicia, teh new wHip. Holy cats, I think that bike is gonna be fast, because it feels so slow at cruising speed. Much more stable than the last bike, and that bike was fast. The gal I was riding with said I should go back to the other bike and I say to her I say Gnope... just gonna learn to ride this one fast enough to scare me.
And often not advice we here until *just* after we need it.
Rode up and burned more cabin. Repaired front shifter on Moonlander. Picked up trash on roadside. Heady Topper FTMFW. Almost cured bad mood from the start of the day.
Say that reminds me... you wanna bring summa dat Heady Topper out to NoDak? Will reciprocate with delicious CO beers.
Well, yeah, that would be part of the base plan...
The closing of the property we're selling was postponed until the 19th, the title company listed the payee as my bank instead of me, apparently I made a mistake by including my account information for funds transfer...? How else were they going to get the money to me? Real estate r confusing.
Real estate r confusing on purpose. Why else would you need agents and lawyers to buy/sell something?
There could be supermodel handies and free beer at the end of every ride, but it would still be deep in the asshole of southern Arizona.
