Ah, summertime in Texas. I am thoroughly sunburned from being in the pool yesterday and a 24-mile ride today. The compressor in my apartment AC died last night, so today was an exercise in staying comfortable. Apparently if you close the blinds and turn on all the fans, it’s fairly tolerable. Who knew? While googling […]

In a fit of three-day planned spontaneousness, I drove to Denver this weekend. I left work at 7 PM on Friday and hit the road. The V1 managed to save me three times on 183 before I even got to 183. It was well after dark by the time I passed through Sweetwater and I […]

Still alive. Saturday I rode the AHCC. I wanted to do the full 107 mile route, but after 30-40 miles it was pretty apparent I wouldn’t last that long. I made it to the ‘Dillo Door cutoff in with thirty minutes to spare so I had made good time by then. I headed down the […]

I done went and got sick again! I wasn’t feeling very well after having ice cream + chocolate syrup for dessert at lunch and blamed it on indigestion. The night went downhill from there, I was getting very tired and went to bed. I woke up at 5 AM with some wicked chest congestion, felt […]

I’m amused by work sending me a 1″ thick binder of doctors in my health insurance network … in New Jersey. But that’s fine, since Jersey City is my adopted city now during the day due to the number of people I work with there and how everything operates on east coast time. Also, I […]

So far I’m enjoying the new job. I certainly have my work cut out for me. I was looking for apartments up north so I could cut out the 30 minute commute and ran across the place that’s literally across the street from the office. Looks pretty spiffy, has granite countertops, so I’ll have to […]
