    I'm bored. I don't want to work. Still in the 50's and raining and tonight it will plummet to the 20's and stay cold. I know better than to ask Kit if I should ride my bike in this, but I could at least put the fenders on my mtb.

    DebW and all you other mechanically minded folks: Is there a better tire to use in the winter on my mtb than my standard mtb tires? I plan on riding it on the road. What exactly are studded tires?
    call me and I'll explain.

    BM3 BF said that he would take care of me, but he wants to have hand surgery at the same time i have my foot surgery so we can be gimped up in the hotel together. great plan i think. at least i'll take the pain pills even if they make me a little wooey in the tummy. he won't, so we all know what a guy in pain is like.... if all else fails, if i'm in town for a while, i'll call up my friend and have her come and save me!

    at least if we are in town for a while, i don't have to cook. we can eat out!

    My short attention span and painfully slow typing skills are not helping me keep up with this thread! I think I need to start taking notes.....

    Lise: Hair too?!?! You hit the jackpot! J. sounds great. Your story makes me all warm and fuzzy. Just heard from my bestest friend from high school. She married a guy last Oct. that she met thru match. He's a keeper too, and she sooooo deserves that after all the nutballs she went thru.

    Why do guys just disappear like that? That's the one downside to match. When you see that they're still active, the "he must've got hit by a bus" theory goes right out the window.

    CWR: see....the problem is that I don't have one to stick with...

    OTG: I LOVE those shirts. Can I maybe steel that for our club event t-shirts. (The Quad-County Metric...it fits that definition too)

    I was just crowned the new SAG chairperson for my club. I'm kinda excited. The job description I was given by the guy I'm taking over for was, and I quote, "you will be in charge of telling people where to go". OOOH YEAH

    i have one of those too, but right now its worse than usual. due to the fact that i only have 5 hours of work left before vacation. whenever there is more than 2 pages of TD to catch up on, i always take notes!

    CWR: have a great vacation! Are you going anywhere special or just lounging around the house (and if you posted on this a gabillion pages ago...no need to be redundant, I'll go back. Kit is the secretary, right?) Sorry, like I said...short attent....oh yeah, where was I?
