Happy Birthday

The big 29er. My allergies were still bugging and I had to work since I used all my PTO on loosing races this year. Still a good day. Thanks to everyone who thought of me, or even better got me goodies!

CAMPING

Choke Canyon with my best bud Blaire. We saw hogs, alligators, rabbits, a bob cat, owls, a fox (dead), birds, fish, deer, and too many spiders!!! ACK! I hate spiders. Had a great time!!! I love roasted marshmellows! The dogs did good on their first camping trip...

Work Peeves

I absolutely cannot stand it when lazy people take the elevator at my work. I work in a building that has two floors and the elevator is right next to the open staircase. I understand that there needs to be an elevator to get all the big and heavy things upstairs (computers, file cabinets, cubicles, etc) but it isn't intended to carry the heavy carcusses of lazy people from one floor to the next. Today there was a perfectly able person standing at the elevator waiting for the doors to open. I walked up the stairs at a slow pace and when I got to the next (and only) floor I saw the elevator doors open and that able person walk out. She was not carrying anything. Ugh!

So all you lazy people -- you know it is you -- please burn an extra calorie or two and take the stairs!!

Down hill

I am not doing good this month. I have been having sinus problems and just feel depressed. I am trying to not dwell upon the past and need to focus on the current and future, but I can't help listening to my sad music and asking "What if?". I have done some pretty unruly stuff the in the past and am having a hard time dealing with it.

This weekend I tried doing the local shop bike ride and had to do the short route because the sinus infection and antibiotics were telling me to get home. This weekend I was the laziest turd ever, watching a whole season of worthless America's Next Top Model, and about 5 hours of CSI Miami. Pathetic.

I even had to drive in to work today...boooooooooooo

Homebody

Not much has been going on. I have had a headache for the past week and am ready for the weekend!!! Me being lazy with the dogs:

ByeBye VW Metro

2008 road racing season is at an end and I have decided no Metro VW for me next year.

I had a blast this year and got to hang out with some awesome people. I admit that I will miss this next year. The reason why I will not be racing on Metro next year is because I cannot compete at the same level of my teammates and travel to all the races with them while I have my current job. Unfortunately, my job will not allow me to take the time off to train/race that is needed in order to compete at the races with the top females. So, I plan on racing locally with my friends in San Antonio. You never know though, I may just venture out to a few of the National races.

Thank you Metro!

My Genuine BUDDY 125cc

I have a new hobby! I bought a scooter and absolutely love it! It is a Genuine Buddy and goes almost 70 mph, but I have only gotten it to go 65ish. And great gas mileage: 85mpg. The crazy part is that I have to actually get a motorcycle license now. The Buddy is going to be great for motorpacing, yeeeeeeeeaaaaahhhhhhh!!!

Obe Juan

Today I expanded my little family and adopted another Boston Terrier! His owner was forced to find a new home for him. He looks just like Reagan but he is 10 years old! I thought that I would be cool and let him lay around my house for the rest of his life and expected him to sleep a lot. Well, turns out that he has more energy than Reagan so I will have my hands full!

FOXY

ORIGIN8 Foxtrot, I will call her fox! My new cyclocross frame/fork came in and I can hardly wait to start commuting on it. YIPPIE!
