    Yup, nekkid as a jaybird!

    I love the little loop on the nut side of the Campy skewer. It is so classic and elegant! And all those lugs... whew!

    Not sure I chose her best feature as my avatar, but it's a start.

    Rode on the new tires (and with the new bell and new light). Very nice tires! Smooth ride. Short ride, though. Didn't even sweat. Darn sunset, anyway!

    Beautiful, lovely Flossie! You should be so proud, Knotted!

    Gorgeous fall color, BMo3! We usually have good color here, but this year, it's really disappointing. The leaves are mostly down already, with little change of colors.

    Lise! It sounds like it was all good!!

    My little found kitty is staying! No one has claimed him yet. He needs a name. I posted a pic in the "Pictures of your pet" thread, if you'd like to see him. He's a cute! Accepting names suggestions............

    I finally figured out how to post photos from my I-Photo! It's not that difficult now that I've got it.

    Hope everyone had a good weekend!

    congratulations on the kitty! I had a feeling he'd be staying. He looks like a Bruce. I guess cuz he looks like he's wearing a batman mask? He is gorgeous. And he's got the languid lounge down pat! Pierre. Gaston. Heironymous. Frederico. (as in a "fred" biker?)

    Tonight's dinner: brown rice and spam (no nori, I'm out, darn!) and a big mug of Dragon Phoenix Pearl green tea. (that's the kind that is the tender tips of branches rolled into little balls and dried in a bed of jasmine blossoms. they unroll in your cup.)

    Mmm-MMMMM!

    Okay, if you must, but don't even think of posting the miles on BJ. Oh, and happy anniversary!

    Annie-the kitty is adorable. Names, it depends a lot on their personality. Mr. Darcy? Clouseau? Lynly? Apparently I am stuck with picking male names from books.

    Snap-Congratulations!! I stopped in Dec 2000.

    Lise-have you sent out he PMs yet? Not that I am anxious to here all the news. ;-)

    Time for more coffee. The house is decorated and may head out for a run before the weather gets too warm. I need to find a better sports bra. SIGH

    I'm going to try and catch up on TD and have no idea where i left off..

    Anyone know of any cool places to buy socks online? I'd like to be a bit more creative this time with my ss..

    I have many "sorry i was late"gifts for my september ss..I sure hope she likes chocolate...

    Good morning TD! Movers are here and packing away! Yikes! We're scurrying around the house finishing up those inevitable last minute details. They're going to pack the puter soon, so I thought I'd say - see ya in a couple of days! We should be back up on Friday sometime or more likely Saturday. Yikes!

    Lise - do include me on the PM list!

    Catch y'all later!

    CC and BMo3 - TE has all, socks and CW-X bras.

    Well, at least Susan said they were gonna start carrying CW-x.

    BMo3, I have an older L (36-38BC?) that is too big for me. Can't even wear it anymore. If you want, I could send it to you and you could at least try it for size? It might have a few months wear left in it. Then when TE has them you'll have a good idea of the sizing.

    BTW, I think it's somewhat unfair that the fat in my b00bs disappears so much faster than the fat on my butt.

    cute critter

    Here's a cute little guy (or gal?) I met last weekend in the Berkshires. He (or she) and 2 companions were living in the register box at the Shaker Campsite on the Appalachian Trail. I'd replaced the old register book for a new one 2 weeks ago. The old one was badly mouse-chewed, and the new one has gotten a bit chewed up in the last 2 weeks. I hate to try and evict the cute little guys, but I don't want the book chewed up either. There's a good inch or more thickness of mouse turds in the bottom of the box. Any suggestions? I might go in with a spoon and clean out the mouse turds and try caulking the box. This is a wooden box mounted on a tree. Or maybe I could find a mouse-proof bag for the book?

    Deb! Love the mouse pic! Same for Flossie, KN! Happy move, fish.

    Two babies delivered, one more on the way, no rest for the midwife, no time to compose happy PMs. This will come. Fret not.

    My SS is all covered-yay! As for the CW-X bras, I have not seen them yet on TE.

    You rock! PM me if you are still willing to let me give it a try. I have been going blind trying to figure out which one would be best. I am a very saggy (gravity and children were not kind) 36C. I am currently using this one:http://www.titlenine.com/shopping/pr...keyword=310109
    It works well for short jogs, but not quite as firm on the rough trails. It does make me "look" perky though.

    That is the very last place I lose.

    Wow - great photos, BMo3, Knot and Deb!! I also love seeing the fall foliage.

    Gotta get some work done. I've spent too much time this morning snooping around the FC 508 finish and course photos!!

    Didn't ride - I do have my place on bj to maintain. Chloe and I went for a two mile walk, I should've brought my camera. She hates crossing the bridge over Los Gatos Creek. She crouches down low and belly crawls across. There are quite a few dirt trails along the creek - fun little short shots for the mtb kids. Chloe took a dip in the creek, but refuses to drink out of the doggy water fountain. She gives me this look like "Ew! Dogs drink out of that!".

    Mood has improved a bit. My headache has not.

    Think I'll go to Michael's today and load up on Halloween decorations.
