    It's official, I have a cold. Not a bad one, just one of those nagging "something in the back of my throat and stuffiness" things. Lots of water, juice and tea. And Chicken Noodle Soup with Tapatio hot sauce!

    Snap,
    I feel your pain. I have the same thing. My lymph nodes are all swollen. I am at the 'painful scratchy throat' part of my cold. I hope we both get to feeling better soon.

    My hot water heater is not working. I absolutely WILL NOT take a cold shower. Good thing there is a shower at work. Not sure if I need to call a plumber or an electrician.
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    DebW - very cool hammock!

    X - can't wait to see the new bike!

    I have seen Trek's dog slide down the kiddie slide, it's pretty funny!

    Now SKnot's cell is "restricted" (turned off by Verizon). Verizon assured me that my balance shows "0" and that both lines are active. Uhhh, no.
    Kids, DON'T get Verizon's "One Bill" service. Heck, DON'T get Verizon at all!

    km

    Hey KG- Did you hear the Canuck jr hockey team won gold? Also, did ya hear about the roof at BC place!!! didja..

    Checked my km's for last year..darn it I can't join the race at bike journal..I ended up doing 4250km..aim this year 6000km...

    My back is still bothering me but i don't want to bother anyone about it. The massage helped & perhaps the pilates session tonight might do the trick too. I think i'm sitting in this stupid chair properly...

    The dear is back.. & we're discussing the household budget for 07-He knows I wanna go to Canuckland earlier than christmas 07..-we will need to sit down and work the finances out..It's a good thing we only visit North America every 3yrs or so with the airfare situation..

    Mae & Stinky sound cool...a kangaroo hey..

    have a good afternoon/evening whereever ya might beeee..

    Jeez you two. Just couldn't wait could you? hehe. Ok, ok. Yes I bought a bike today at AG's LBS. But, I had an agreement with BMo3 that I was going to call her so she could talk me out of buying a bike. As you've already read, she did not hold up her end of the bargain. So, I am now the owner of a new mtb.

    It is a 2007 Specialized Hardrock Pro 17". Alum frame, hydraulic disc brakes, hardtail, color scheme Raw Distressed. It rained like crazy on the way home so she's already had her first bath. I need to get some SPD's for her yet. Oh, she's already shared her name with me... Pounce. She has shown quite an affinity for jumping over and off stuff. So much fun. Now she just needs a riding partner to play with.

    X - I like the paint scheme! (very "user friendly"!) congrats on the new bike! And I'm glad no-one talked you out of it.
