The original plan to drink copiously has been altered. I’m just not in the mood tonight. Instead, I think I shall play my X-Box in solitude, and wonder why the hell I am at home, alone on a Friday night.
…Yes, I had alternatives, but instead, I choose to stay at home. It’s [...]

…I shall start drinking profusely.
And then, get up early tomorrow so that I can get the rest of this work done, hungover no less. *blech* Then, it’s off to rowing. (Yay, rowing!)
At least the end is near. And, I hear my bike will be picked up sometime tonight. Two good things, I [...]

I know it’s all relative, but I’m having a CRAPPY day today. Not one good thing has happened to brighten my Friday, and it’s not even Friday for me, because I have to work this weekend and at least Monday morning.

Here I thought I was going on a nice leisurely ride to Squamish with Jason and Donna tonight… But no. It can’t be that simple.
Instead, poor Donna’s Ninja decided to ‘blow up’ so to speak in front of my place — It wouldn’t turn off and then the antifreeze started pumping out the back [...]

I have several things I want to write about today, but I think I’ll leave all but one until a later date when I’m better prepared to put my thoughts to words.
For today, I think I’ll keep things shallow and superficial. Yes, that’s right, I want to discuss hair. Lately, I have this [...]

Damn, I can hear the fireworks from my place! I knew they were on tonight, but elected to stay at home.
Now I wish I’d gone — It looks beautiful.
ps: my camera battery is dead, so I’ll have to post the photos from Vegas tomorrow evening! Sorry for the delay! They look great [...]

Rowing tonight went off FAR better than I expected — Other than the obvious lack of fitness that has overcome my body, my knee did remarkably well… It didn’t even twinge once out on the water. Yes, I did take it easy, but by the end of the row, Andrea and I were definitely [...]

OMG — www.Katkam.ca just captured this photo:

Not exactly the material I want to see on the webcam — How disturbing. I hope the rider is okay! Not good.
The hazards of having a live webcam on my site is that sometimes you see things that you really don’t want to see.

After a long eight and a half weeks, this chick is finally getting back into a rowing shell tonight. It feels like forever since I’ve rowed, and I guess it has been. With my knee so damaged and bandaged, there was no way I could move it enough to get out any sooner [...]

01. When you look at yourself in the mirror, what’s the first thing you look at? Eyes
02. How much cash do you have on you? …Haven’t been to the bank after my win yet, so $1352.50
03. What’s a word that rhymes with “TEST”? Nest
04. Favorite plant? Realistic plastic ones
05. Who is the 4th [...]

Trouble has arrived back in town! Sandi and I got home last night around 7:30… Taking the same limo home from the airport that we left with. What a great trip! I think I’ve successfully got Sandi hooked on Blackjack and Let It Ride, which is good, because slots are for old [...]

Wahooooo! Today’s the day! I’m so looking forward to leaving on that jet plane! Five days of silliness with Sandi is just exactly what I need right now. Bring it on!
Pedicures with Sandi last night was a blast — We went to the Century Plaza at Absolute Spa there, and yacked while [...]

OMG, I’m in such a good mood tonight!
I had a really great ride with Jeremy, and my bike ran wonderfully this evening… Thanks Black Beast for behaving! Now, if only she wasn’t so reactionary — But, she’s a girl, afterall. Hopefully my mechanic will whip her into shape tomorrow so that when I [...]

Yahoooooooooooooo! I’m sorry Steph and friends at the wound therapy clinic, I know you guys looked forward to seeing me twice a week for the last 7.5 weeks, but I’m not coming back! It’s time I forged out into the big bad world on my own now, sans bandage on my knee and [...]

*YAWN*
I’m still tired, but I can’t get back to sleep. It’s the weirdest thing, lately (as in the last couple of months) — I often wake up around 5:30am, and can’t get back to sleep. Today, it’s 4:30am.
Note to body: I don’t live in Central Canada! Let’s get back to Pacific Daylight [...]

This looks so inviting. I wish I had started my vacation TODAY!

Eerie… It’s now 9am, and I’m still the only one in the office.
My workmates are slackers!

Wow, was I up early this morning… Mostly because I have a vacation coming up starting the day after tomorrow, and I wanted to make sure I was prepared for good productivity on a Monday morning — Aren’t I a keener?
I can’t believe my time off starts in two days! It’ll be nice to [...]

…That the only way I am going to be able to get out on the road with the Black Beast is to a) Get someone out with me riding their own bike, and b) Get those goddamned handlebars changed. They are WAAAAY too long, and low speed turns when I’m not using push steering, [...]

I had a good day today. Really. I was finally able to smile without faking it, laugh without forethought, and talk endlessly about stupid shit on the phone with friends — Things that were a real struggle a few weeks ago… (two, to be exact)
Jeremy actually picked me up to go to a [...]
