i'm all about the TE pajama party, but don't we do that all the time anyhow, or is it just me in my jammies?

no need to worry, i have responsible friends who get cabs or don't drink at all. its so nice not to worry about my friends anymore with drinking and driving.

I am reading this in my jammies.
Where *is* everybody??

Yoooh!
Lotsa peeps - incl my special friends Colby, DebW, KG, Queen, Trek420 and Tuckervill...
What a good idea this party is...

[KnottedYet]

Just got in from a bike ride (an errand, not a big ride) and am now dyeing my hair. Isn't it traditional that *someone* at a jammie party has to be messing with her hair and have a towel wrapped around her head?

do I get extra points cuz my head is covered in green goop that smells and looks like rotted spinach?

I've busted into a bottle of red wine (my reward for putting up with green goop for 2 hrs), so lets get out the glasses and toast our bikes!!

[Trek420]

A toast to green goopy spinach hair!

Knot, I'm hoping the color of your hair isn't slimy green, just the goop.

Finally got Kit moving so we are out of here for a late dinner and to see if we can still catch up with Mimi and Raleighdon at the Lodge after his Seattle to Portland ride.

We shall be partaking of some alcohol this evening as well, just not in our jammies. (don't worry, no drinking and driving will occur)

Have fun ladies!!

uh, no, her hair is neither slimy, green nor goopy

DH is about to start dying my hair for me, then we need to pack up his gear and such for the race tomorrow.

He got his haircut today, and it's pretty much as short as possible without being completely shaved. He looks sexy!

I was really really happy we got up at 7:00 this morning because, just after we'd eaten our waffles, the phone rang and I was invited on a ride with a couple of women - one who has chronic arthritis in her knees and is new to biking, and one who has several disc problems and is new to biking. I really really enjoyed our ride, and I felt well enough after to do a few things and shop even, before I layed down on the couch with my cold magic bean bag. Oh, and DH insisted I renew my wardrobe at my friend's consignment store. I bought 3 skirts, 2 pairs of pants, 4 shirts, and a pair of pointy burgundy snakeskinish high heeled ankle boots...for $120 CDN. Most of it is work or home wear, and most of it works very well with clothes I already have. It's like a whole new wardrobe for the price of a fancy jersey! Sad, but I have to buy those types of clothes too.

I still need to cook hash browns so we don't have to be up at 5:00 to make breakfast, so I'd better go....but I"ll check in on the pj action a little later.

H&B,

A DH who dyes your hair for you and "insists" you buy more clothes??
Hey, pretty good score, girl!


P.S. WWAAAAHHHH....I missed the pajama party!!!

Knotted- green and goopy? Are we talking henna here? If so, I always thought it smelled nice, like hay, not like rotting spinach! ...Going red?

So, for around $850 I'd have a commutermobile that would haul SKnot (on the flats) AND his bassoon AND a bag of dog food.

At about $50 per tank, and at about one tank a week, that's about 4 1/2 months of driving to pay off the Xtracycle.

Hmmmmmm...
Factor in a few oil changes (or "pay" yourself the federal mileage rate - which lots of people would argue doesn't cover the cost of driving), and you'll be there a whole lot more quickly!

Sorry, haven't figured out how to quote properly but wanted to say... don't forget to add in insurance costs and wear and tear (things like tyre changes). Xtracycles are awesome.
