We keep having rain followed by 90+ temps...it's like living in a rain forest!

I went to Whole Paycheck thinking I'd get some supplies for the week for the office so I don't have to bring a lunch to work. A co-worker told me their 365 brand is competitive with "normal" grocery store brand.

Well, it's true. Wow. Milk a whole 50 cents cheaper than my "regular" grocery at home. So I loaded up on that and other stuff and ended up sweating my way back to the office.

Quick: a calculator -

Home: Milk is 3.99 - five miles from home (closest store) - sweaty 20 min uphill bikeride home.

Office: At wholefoods 3.49 - sweaty walkin' mile from office (32 from home... so it has to go home on the bus then bike pannier for 20 min uphill bikeride home...)

Was it worth it?

Math hurts.

Well if you consider the extra work a benefit, yes. You got a walk, a little extra weight on the climb to help sculpt lovely legs. If it were 100 degrees there like here and you got home with spoiled milk, no.

I really despise SPAM text messages. I can handle them in my email but my phone I get excited thinking it is DH (we text at lunch/break). Now I just see it was a phishing thing trying to get me to call about some non-existent bank account. I wish it had been my sweetie.

New circuit board, new theromostat - a/c is working again. Nala the dog and the kitties are much happier. Their mom is estatic, until she got the bill. Isn't that what a savings account is for?

My new thermostat talks too. So long as it doesn't do wolf whistles as I streak from the bathroom to the bedroom, we'll get along just fine.

My thermostat doesn't talk, but it is programmable. That is a wonderful thing.

It was 104 here yesterday. But we've got a cold front coming in!!! Party!

What's the story there???

So it is nice and cool here now (has been downright cold all week), but we're headed for some hot weather now I think. My sort of sister is coming for a few days and we're riding bikes this afternoon I think. Hot weather would be ok for that.

[Pax]

What's the story there??

I have someone from a forum where I used to be a huge contributor following me around the net and being a mildly menacing jerk. Since we've met in real life and he knows where I live it creeps me out a bit.

I thought a change in user name would make it more difficult for him AND not end up ruining TE for me.

[maillotpois]

Ew - that is nasty! Sorry. Is it that big moto forum that starts with "A"? Haven't been there in a while...

[maillotpois]

Wow - sorry. That totally blows. Losers.

We went to a motorcycle shop last night and they had some amazing stuff (BMW clothes, etc.) Wow you can spend so much money on that stuff. I like my super cheap Joe Rocket jacket. It works. But wow, those are so pretty. Oh well.

Then we had to go get DH emergency new tires as he'd gotten tread separation on one going over the Richmond Bridge - in the car we just drove to Oregon - and he was lecturing ME about needing new tires!!

At least there's a super British pub by the tire store. Mmm. Black and tan.

[kelownagirl]

Yup, I walked away in March after 19,000 posts and haven't been back. It's just not worth it.

If it's the one I'm thinking of, you haven't been around the related cycling site either I don't think. Does he hang out there too?
