Who?s Back?
2008-02-27 03:27:00 I’m back! Kinda sorta anyways. Lots to tell so little time. All things in good time. I must write though. I am losing my mind… seriously… More About: Back
So Long, Farewell
2007-10-31 04:27:00 Cheezy, huh? I am in a cheesy kind of mood. Two more sleeps until I make the move to Okiehoma. I feel as if I am starting yet another new chapter in my life. What it will hold, I do not know, but I am anxious to get underway. This experiment in Libra solobility has ... More About: Long , Farewell , Fare , Well
Thrills in the Foothills
2007-10-14 04:52:00 I went on a charity ride today that was aptly dubbed “Thrills in the Foothills.” There were definitely thrills. If you call cruising down a ?hill? at speeds over 40 mph while tears stream down your face from the wind and the cold? which I do of course. There were definitely foothills. I should mention ...
Reflection and Resolution
2007-10-09 04:03:00 I am sitting here in my t-shirt I got yesterday for completing the triathlon. I must say it makes me look good. That is saying a lot considering I still need to lose another 50 pounds. I have lounged around in it all day, and it is quite comfy. It is actually a very nice ... More About: Reflection , Resolution
Emerald Pointe Triathlon
2007-10-08 02:11:00 If I had to pick a theme song for this race, hell for this training season, it would be “Run A Little.” Whenever I do not have my MP3 player to keep me company, this is the cadence that runs over and over in my head. I never got tired of it. It always kept ... More About: Emerald , Triathlon

Another Year Older
2007-09-28 02:27:00 It was a good one today. Phone calls and emails from everybody, and I even saw Merri at work today. I got the most wonderful evil double chocolate fudge cake at work. I splurged with a little steak and shrimp for dinner. Kosmo enjoyed my left over steak, so he celebrated just a bit as ... More About: Year
Yeeowza!
2007-09-27 00:43:00 Sucked it up today and got an Epidural Steroid Injection. Sonofabitch! it was way more painful today than the last time I had one two years ago. The amount of pain during an ESI is directly proportionate to the amount of inflammation in the epidural space, so while I would not say the pain was ...
Fast Update
2007-09-25 04:51:00 Slacker! That is what I am. I want to write, tons of stuff to write about, but am I am totally fighting with my focus issues again. Okay, they never went away, but with more going in, it seems worse and not better. Oh well, here goes with a fast slacker update. Gave my notice ... More About: Update , Fast

2007-09-13 04:11:00 I have had this song stuck in my head ever since I finished my brick today. I will let the Muppets take it away! More About: House , Brick
Change in Plans
2007-09-11 03:51:00 Holy crap! I just signed up for my first triathlon. I got butterflies just filling out the form! I had to move the date, because I will not be here on the date of the Emerald Pointe Tri. Nineteen days! I feel like throwing up a just a little bit. More About: Change , Plans , Chang , Chan

In The Club!
2007-09-03 04:20:00 I had an interesting ride out on the Silver Comet today. My goal was to do 50 minutes out and then 50 minutes back. I also wanted it to be a Z2 ride so I had to keep my heart rate average between 135 and 146. Easy enough, yes? Of course! Never mind my legs ... More About: Club , The Club
Grrrrrrr!
2007-08-30 04:14:00 Work! *insert slew of cuss words here* *and some more here* *and a few more here* And here is to hoping I can hold my tongue long enough to find a new job…
Twenty!
2007-08-28 04:08:00 No, not my age… I wish! Okay, I only wish that if I could take everything I know now back to then. What I am really talking about is hitting the 20 mile mark on my bike this past Saturday. I set three goals for this season when I started this whole triathlon craziness: Swim ...

Wazzat
2007-08-25 03:41:00 Well, I could talk about how much work sucks, but let’s face it, we already know what a fucking mess it is. It gets worse each day, maybe it is because I care less and having my eyes wide open to the shit that is never going to change just makes it worse. I also ...
Ayep
2007-08-24 03:57:00 I was trying to think of something interesting to write about tonight, but it was an uninteresting day. I worked. It sucked. I ran after work. It did not suck too bad. It rained on the way home. I got some cuddle time in with Kosmo after dinner. Checked on homework due for classes, and ...
Ty Red (tired, get it?)
2007-08-23 04:16:00 I am poopy tired. I have spent the last three years working 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and as of last week I am now on 8-5. I really do not get to sleep in because traffic sucks at that time so much worse, and getting off at 5 and then going to work out ... More About: Tired , Tire
Affinity
2007-08-22 03:02:00 After drinking margaritas at Chili’s Friday night, I wanted a little longer between the ending of those and driving home, so I headed over to Barnes and Noble for a cup of coffee and some book shopping. I settled on a nice hard back of all the Narnia stories, and I also picked up “Affinity” ...
Who Knew?
2007-08-21 03:38:00 It is true, since before the Atlanta Pride 5K run, I have been fighting with shin splints. Of course it is my own damn fault. I went out too hard too fast, and after trying to keep up with the studs at a Train Strong session, I have been paying for it ever since. I ... More About: Who Knew
The Suck
2007-08-19 05:08:00 It was a tough day at work yesterday. I have told the office manager for months the only reason I have stayed was because of her. After her review a couple of weeks ago, she has told me the only reason she has stayed has been for the us. She came in yesterday morning and ... More About: Suck
July Training Totals
2007-08-07 01:27:00 Here we are a good week into August, and I forgot to have a look at my July training totals.

Introducing Ruby!
2007-08-06 04:04:00 It is true, I have fallen in love. I guess it was bound to happen eventually. I had a moment of clarity one day riding the stationary bike at the gym, and knew that I needed to start the search in earnest. I had been half-assed looking around on craigslist for a while, but nothing ... More About: Ruby
!@#$%
2007-08-01 03:00:00 What a goddamn mother fucking shitty week this has been, and it is only Tuesday! I am referring to work of course. Though my planned swim workout went to hell today as well since I forgot my swim cap. I was really looking forward to pushing out 1250 yards in the pool and working off ...
Disappointment
2007-07-25 03:11:00 I was going to introduce Ruby today, but instead I must rant for a bit. I have been totally invested in the Tour de France this year. I have never paid much attention to cycling except for Lance Armstrong, but this year I have found a new interest in it as it relates to my ... More About: Disappointment , Sapp
Catchin? Up
2007-07-17 02:40:00 Lessee, where to start… I went out Friday with some gals from work. First stop was Chili’s for a few margarita curls. Yummy! Of course I cheated a bit and had some Shanghai wings. Yummy, as well! We followed that with a quick trip inside Barnes and Noble next door looking to get one of ...
Touching Moment
2007-07-16 03:47:00 I got up early to catch the Tour de France live this morning. I am not the crying type, but I nearly bawled like a baby right along with Mike Rogers when he dropped from the Tour. He was in the virtual lead for the yellow jersey, and a good prospect to win the Tour ... More About: Moment
Tough Boys
More articles from this author:2007-07-13 22:06:00 I am thoroughly engrossed in the Tour de France this year. True, last year was a mess, but I am hoping the cyclists can redeem themselves and do it doping free.
