Weekend stuff
It was a busy, busy weekend here. Friday we took off and I did some heavy gear shopping. Didn't buy anything but found a pair of boots I liked, but they weren't my size. The local dealer wouldn't order them, so I jotted down the website and figured I'd order them myself later.
After a nice ride and some ice cream, I zonked out for the rest of the day :) I was pooped.
Saturday was spent helping the BIL and SIL unload their stuff from a moving van to a storage unit. They're moving back to PA from SC because BIL got a job in southern PA. A nice plus is that it makes the niece and nephew closer to visit :)
Sunday I crashed. It was hot, humid and I didn't feel like doing a darn thing. I did manage to do laundry (yeah, way exciting, I know) and set off the heat alarm on my PC. I'd been playing NWN's Infinite Dungeons mod and I guess all the processing was too much for my poor PC.
Monday was fun. I woke up refreshed and darph_bobo and I headed out for a ride, with a stop at yet another bike shop. I ordered my rain pants while darph_bobo oggled bikes. I caught up with him later as he was checking out some of the used stock. He was really liking the looks of a 94 Honda Magna when a sales guy came over to take the price tag off of it. I commented that it looked like the bike had just sold, but the sales guy said "nope, but we're taking $500 off of it." *blink* *blink* I look at darph_bobo and he looks at me. We leave and head home.
At home I do some number crunching and he does some googling about the bike. The finances came in OK and he liked the bike, so we jumped in the car and headed back. So we now have 3 bikes.
I commented that we really need to stop ordering things at this shop. The last two times, we've come home with bikes. The first was the ZR-7S, and now the Magna.
Oh, and I still need boots. I made the order to the company I liked, but they emailed me back that the boots are out of stock. Guess I need to order some elsewhere :P
