Ugh. I'm supposed to be doing homework and don't "feel like it". :p If it weren't due tomorrow I would SO be blowing it off. :rolleyes:
That's not sweat, it's drool ...obviously from admiring himself in a reflecting pool way too long. lol!Quote:

But really my main goal is pretty realistic- to simply use my bike more often on errands into town and back- oour hill going home is only 1/4 mile but steep, and it works my legs out pretty well.
Yeah I hear ya. I'm sad that commuting and cycling for errands just doesn't work for me where I live. In another life, I will live in a small town and be able to walk or ride to everything... Sigh....Quote:

Hiya OakLeaf! I've been swimming and weight lifting, bu man I miss my bike!Quote:

My latest keeping-me-too-busy thing is organizing 2 teams of 10 for a local canoe relay race on Apr 30. I've done this race with my company for many years, and decided to put together an all-women's team this year with a women's outdoor organization I belong to. There has been only 1 team in the women's division of this race, and I thought that was sad, so now there will be competition. It seem that lots of people will join a race if you tell them that they are guaranteed to finish in the top 3! I had 21 people signed up, registered 2 team of 10, and am now struggling to replace those who have dropped out. But it's all coming together. We had a great practice on the river last Sunday with 9 team members paddling.
Deb, that sounds like a great time!!
That's not his drool, I think it's Zen's ;) :p :DQuote:

@ school right now, finished up a journal that will be due... now I need to go look over some xrays and critique them (basically we fill out a form saying what's right and what's wrong with the positioning, what different body parts are in the pics, etc) lots o' fun. :D Was talking to a fella in my class, he rides his Soma (Doublecross?) in from Mt. Tabr area every morning. It's funny, I'd walk past his bike and admire it every morning... now I know who its owner is. :D
Kit!! Glad to "see" you, hope all is well with school and such.
So far, so good. I'm getting all good grades, have my clinicals at a really great local hospital and have class with some really cool people. :D Life is good.
Finished up my critiques, now time to feed kitties, make dinner, finish my homework and maybe have a beer.
UGGHHH. Where Brooks go to die...

"good condition" :D
Deb, the canoe race sounds fun.
It makes me sad that we hardly use our very nice canoe. Every year less and less. I only do flat water paddling, but it's not like there's a lack of places to do that around here. The bike just gets in the way.
Great to see this place hoppin' agaian:)
Meant to pop in earlier, but been working too much OT. on the other hand , I do go on vacation friday:cool:
SWEET!!!!! I'm jealous, we don't go until June 10th, but at least then I'll be in Key West for 10 days... vacation rawks! :DQuote:

We go every year and spend a week or two doing nothing but laying by/in the pool, riding scooters around town, eating amazing seafood, and enjoying free happy hour every night. Ahhhhhhhhhh.Quote:

I remember when I was 18 (about a hundred years ago) riding a scooter around in the Bahamas, buying a woven palm leaf hat, eating pigeon peas and chicken- what fun!
DH and I are oddly getting swamped with patent drawing work right now- looks like maybe we won't get a chance to get away anywhere for fun- just an obligatory family trip in June we don't really want to do but have to. :cool: We'll try to make it as enjoyable as we can.
But I do have my big veg garden and my beehives to tend, and that can feel like a sanctuary right in my own little neighborhood back yard. When i'm digging the soil and sowing bok choy and cucumber seeds in the sun with my bees flying around me, I feel like i'm a thousand miles away from my desk.
BSG - your yard sounds heavenly.
My SO finally got word that her position at the U will be ending in the Fall due to budget cuts (ahh the joy of being non tenure track faculty). We've been anticipating this for a couple of years and we've been working things out financially so when it happens we'll be okay. We will be able to live on my salary and I can but her on my benefits.
I'm happy for her as she's been burned out in her field for some time, I hope she'll just take some down time and rest/refocus.
You are very smart to have prepared for that possibility. She'll have time to recoup her strength and then figure out a new and better path.
That's what I'm hoping for. She's VERY driven and has never had time to just sit and contemplate the future... I hope after a couple of weeks she'll be able to settle and breathe and rest.Quote:

Agreed, Fort Lame is not my idea of a vacation hotspot. :p But writing a historical novel is cool as all get out!!! I read a lot of those (my favorite genre), when you're ready please share the title!Quote:

'Afternoon, ladies! What's happening?
Back from classes, errands and such. Trying to get up the energy to do the cleaning etc before we have guests over. X hung my painting this afternoon before I got home from class, so that was great. :D I think Sunny might go on the trainer so I can 'practice' a bit even when the weather's icky.
Wow - it's like old home week in here.
Hey Pax - you still riding? I am even more moto fickle than I thought I was and just traded the monster (that I had traded the bonnie for) for a 2006 multistrada. The monster was way too cramped for the trip we did to Seattle, so I have been keeping my eye open for an old multi. So far I love it. So comfy.
Hey maillotpois! Yup, still riding. I have a scooter for commuting to work and I' a Moto Guzzi Breva motorcycle for everything else... gotta love the Italian bikes!! :D
oooh. Luck to you! Multis look gorgeous!Quote:
