First day back at work after 4 day weekend is hard...

Dannihilator 11-28-11 06:35 PM

Today I hammered out a hard ride.

jimmytango 11-28-11 06:50 PM

I realized today that I'm making terrible decisions that affect other people, and I need to change that. The problem with it is that one of the people involved enjoys my bad decisions as much as I do, until the next day when we both realize we ****ed up.

I also realized that I have gotten about 20 hours of sleep in the past week, and I don't remember the last day I didn't drink booze. Tonight's agenda, clean my house, nap, watch tv, and drink water. Time for a little bit of restful detox...

Life in the fast lane - surely make you lose your mind. I hope things start getting better for you and yours jimmy. Sounds rough man :(.

Today Spokane is still in a warm/dry spell contrary to what weather reports have predicted. I've been able to ride the rush way more than I'd thought.

Jimmy, hope you feel better and get back on track,

EpicSchwinn (whatever your real name is ;)) hope you enjoy your new Rush!

30 min hard pace on the rollers.

then beat Week 6 Day 3 of the "100 Pushups" program: 30sec rest periods w/ sets of 20/17/15/14/42minimum (did 60). two days rest and i should theoretically be able to do 100 non-stop.

no tv tonight, my guilty pleasure "Two Broke Girls" is a repeat. the hotness of Kat Dennings will have to wait: http://collider.com/wp-content/uploa...ge-450x600.jpg

I wish I could do push us, but I have that stupid clicking in my elbows that make it a bit uncomfortable, I resort to weight lifting.

And damn, I saw one episode and I liked it. It's pretty funny, but man does she need a tan lol.

Contrary to popular belief, I think his name is Bryan. (see avatar space)

The pale-ness looks good on her. Not every one needs a tan!
























Some people, however -

Agreed, she does look "fine" but Twilight killed it for me.

Finally got around to putting the mudguards on my Viscount.

Today I rode with my new Pearl Izumi softshell gloves. Not as warm as I hoped but definitely makes a huge difference. Paired with my Calv jacket from Retrogression, it makes me appreciate both a LOT more.

jimmytango 11-29-11 12:59 AM

I laid down for a two hour nap and woke up 6.5 hours later. Oops. Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, my name is Bryan. Jimmy Tango is a reference to a song that was playing when I made my account. Kat Dennings is pretty cute, and she's actually exactly my type physically. I love petite chicks with long dark hair and pale skin.

I would hit that like the fist of god, but she has some pretty masculine features.

Worked a closing shift to help pay for all the bike **** I've been buying. Getting pretty close to winning my frame on ebay as well :)

I think it's the jaw line. :lol:

EpicSchwinn 11-29-11 07:04 PM

Today I sat down in le coffee shop to do homework and thought to myself "I'll probably just end up on bikeforums for an hour before I start my homework." Fast forward an hour to now. Checked the syllabus and I don't have any homework!!

Me now:

Today I continued to wait patiently for all my Track Friday purchases. Damn, shipping, why you take so long?

Dannihilator 11-29-11 07:26 PM

Today I had a good road ride, managed to time it just right and wasn't rained on.

Robofunc 11-30-11 02:38 PM

Put a new cartridge BB in my Miyata and pieced together a loose ball BB for the '74 Peugeot townie project (French cups, Japanese (probably) spindle). Good to go.

I'm in the same boat. All I need is my All-City clips and I get get my pedals set up!

hairnet 11-30-11 03:05 PM

I got one step closer to tipping my bike over the 100lb line when I went out for groceries. I will just go buy cases of beer next time, water is heavy

jimmytango 11-30-11 05:28 PM

Today I used a pressure washer outside in they shade in 25 degree weather, because our pizza ovens needed to be cleaned. As a reward for heaving the cold, my boss took the crew to Hot Doug's (best hot dogs/sausages in the ****ing world). Then I came home, napped, and had a fight with my wife about something ridiculous. Later, karaoke and drinking the pain away...

Jaytron 11-30-11 05:32 PM

Today my Leader 722ts came in.... sorta...

No gold, so it came in black, and it's sitting in Jandro's office because I didn't have it delivered to my house (nobody to sign for it). He lives in the city and works in the south bay, while I live in the south bay and work in the city. lolz.

I thought they were ok... Interesting flavors. I was less than impressed by the duck fat fries.

I'm not sure I would wait in that line again, though (and I got there before it even opened).
