So this morning we took a little glee in someone else's stupidity and misfortune. They had a brainfart and thought it would be a good idea to park where it was most convenient - right in front of our garage. This kept up from being able to back our car out of said garage and, for instance, work on the dresser I'm painting. So we called the tow ( Read more... )

I have no real reason to update this journal, other than to say that I'm at work and don't want to be. And that this week is finally a week I can look forward to real rides again. Whee!

Hope everyone is having a more entertaining time than I!

Ok, so I said I might eventually get around to putting some of our vacation pictures on this journal. Guess what? You don't get to see them ( Read more... )

Ok, so we're back.  Texas is a bit warmer than NC....

BUFE is a wonderful trip car.  She took all our stuff, the bikes, and ran like a champ the whole way with nary a complaint.  She even took my mother around for a bit, which is more of a burden than I feel comfortable asking of anyone.  :)

I will be posting trip pictures a bit later, after I ( Read more... )

Any guesses where I am when I'm writing in this journal? Ok...nothing new ( Read more... )

I always update my journal from the shop. I'm supposed to be researching frame geometry to find a match for a guy who fits everything known to be made for a human male. Nelo handed this task to me because he didn't want the tedium of looking it all up himself. Sigh. Then he handed me one that doesn't exist. The woman's a mutant. Sigh ( Read more... )

Yes, indeed, I'm at work. Writing in my journal. Ok, ok, I'm taking a bit of a lunch break, so it's semi-legit this time. I get frustrated with how business comes in such swings, though. I get slammed for an hour, with more customers than I have time to greet, and then I have a lull where I'm bored senseless, but don't really have enough time ( Read more... )

Wow. A long weekend, and I now need a weekend to recover from it. Saturday I worked, supposedly until 5, but had a customer come in with last minute demands(like buying $5G worth, and wanting a couple of things swapped out, which, of course, was my baliwick) and didn't get going until close to 6. I took the world's record shortest shower, jumped ( Read more... )

So Christi is sick. Nasty sick. See your meals too many times sick. And this, of course, makes me a bit of a hypochondriac. Any little odd feeling has me going, "Am I sick now, too?" So I was feeling a little queasy this morning, and had all the odd gut sensations ( Read more... )

So I'm typing away at work again. Why do I do this journal thing from work? I suppose it's possible I have more dead time here than I do at home. Bobby and Nelo have agreed not to put on cycling on the TV's today - they're watching some VH1 thing on Brittany Spears. Sad. Really, really sad. Bobby is fascinated by it all. Poor man needs a ( Read more... )
