    Lise,

    I think 2005 would be the best!

    I am having an intense craving for pot roast and vegetables. What roast cut is the best? I can never tell...

    I like helmets that match the bike.

    Got the light blue/silver helmet (Giro Eclipse) - matches the bike. The shoes match, too (not on purpose - they fit the best).

    Heading over this morning to get the reimbursement. I'm a bit anxious about this as she was not thrilled last night. But - I'm prepared. One bit of unhappiness from her and I have a whole load of things to say.

    I decided today to order the wicked expensive LG shorts- but they didn't have my size in stock. It's a sign- so I ordered the Sugois that Susan recommended instead, and a tank that will go with the knickers that I want so badly. I hope I like them...

    I took in this dog, one time, in the middle of a blizzard. It chewed the crap out of my bathroom. When I found the owners, they said they'd pay, but them got very reluctant. But they did.

    She paid! Smiled when I walked in. The smile diminished some when she started writing out the check. We're depositing it as soon as the bank opens. Then - this will be done!

    She should just be glad she didn't kill you!

    Weather is nice- rainy but not too windy. They say the second rain band might miss us- that would be too bad.

    Rhubarb wine tonight!!

    I don't know how it is yet- I'm going to have it with my pot roast tonight. If only I could drink wine at work...

    Oh sorry - I read "tonight" and assumed the post was from yesterday because I wasn't on line last night. Duh.

    Well, tell us how it is.

    Had a Conundrum last night. Yummy complex white blend.

    Did she ever explain why she was driving on the wrong side?

    Snap - She was looking at the softball fields (on my side of the road) - there were some teams prepping for a tournament. She works for the Park Commission - these were their fields. I don't think she saw me until I went past her window.

    I have some friends with a serious Conundrum addiciton. I think for tonight I am going to open a bottle of vino verde. Little local wine shop just got in a really tasty one - and for $6.89 a bottle how could I say no.

    Nice day...

    First, I get a speeding ticket, $186, when I wasnt even trying to speed- I was just listening to hurricane news on my way to the grocery store. The cop's like, you just drove right by me! Well, no duh, I wasn't aware I was driving so fast.

    Then, I get my package from Sierra Trading Post. I don't like the new Vitesse Saddle- it is synthetic, not leather, and fat and poofy.

    Also included are my new Birks for work. Is it just me, or does this bother anyone else???
