    We're not. All of our training rides are some part of the DMD route. This weekend is Patterson Pass repeats.

    Bummer. I love the camaraderie of the brevets for training. And did I mention the breweries?

    Going to do a 30-40 mile ride today. The last time I did this in January (it was 70 and I was wearing a ss jersey), DH and I crashed because the ride leader had sucky skills, slowed without signaling, causing us to go down. We actually rode our bikes into the vestibule of the local ER.

    Not-remotely-dear electric company:
    While I realize my apartment has no insulation (and that the heating is electric), I fail to see how it is physically possible to use $100 worth of electricity in a 1-bedroom apartment in 33 days, especially considering that I wasn't in said apartment for 14 of those days, and the heating was off.
    You suck.

    USPS:
    I like you guys, normally. I've never had a problem with you until now--the rest was caused by jerkfaces swiping things off my doorstep. This time? I'm getting suspicious that this never made it off the truck or something, and there's no way for me to contact you to ask what the heck is going on.

    Dear TE ladies
    The DH and I hopped on our bikes and light rail and managed to get downtown, eat donuts and hot chocolate and get home. We rode 7 miles. he's really beat, I'm ecstatic, but DARN it's so HARD to get him to eat enough!!!
    He's happy that he did 7 miles, but is grumping about how weak he feels. He's really doing well, considering.
    that is all.

    Dear Owlie REALLY! electric heat is extremely expensive. wear more wool. You and your packages, it is a constant source of entertainment for the rest of us.

    7 miles= good. Doughnuts too.

    Or something. Since I've been directing packages to the office, I think this is a screw-up on the post office's end.
    I'll stop griping about it.
    (And yes, I've contemplated moving, but my lease ends during move-in time for undergrads--poor timing. Most of the rent around here is a fair bit higher too, and the lower electric bills won't offset that. If there is a difference, it's only by a few dollars and not worth the hassle of moving.)

    Mimi, that is fantastic!!!


    Owlie - complain all you want to, it's cathartic for you and in a small way, funny for us.

    Not again. Really, you don't make it easy to be a fan.

    I don't have TV...so I take it they've performed up to their usual standards.

    Yay for Mimi and Don- Congrats on your tour de doughnut.

    Dear Oakleaf-

    I'm sorry your team lost but at least the neighbor Texas fans won't have to commit hari kari, which considering all the hype the game has gotten, would have been the only option for a large maority of the population here in Texas.
