Yawn. Beer run in the offing.
then the beer runs....
72 hours until I escape from Japan. Every where I go people have been coughing and sniffing, I am afraid I may have caught a cold. Not a big deal but you can't buy decent cold medicine in this country even if you can read the labels. And all those people wearing facemasks? They are just weirdos, no one tries to prevent the spread of colds here. People will hack, cough and sneeze all over the place on a crowded train.
Shaved my head last night, got tired of all grey stubbly hair
Driving the frigging short bus again today

tomorrow's my friday.
I've got one of those problems here at work, that I know how to do it, know the process and understand how/why it should work, but it just isn't. UGH.
Spent all afternoon yesterday on this and if I don't solve it today I am going to go loco.
But the coffee is good today.

I hope that wasn't the entirety of your "mountain experience" yesterday . . . that place is like a mini-Asheville-type tourist trap. If you ever find yourself in Blowing Rock the best thing you can do is immediately proceed approximately 10-15 miles SSW.
Today. Yerp. Here it is. Yawn.
yeah...i know...remember when it was just two lanes going up there and the road wasn't totally fucked going thru town...
i actually ended up in tennessee.
Here its more the humidity really sweaty ride in the park this morning and to work but I guess sweating is healthy. Still feel a little stiff in my legs after Saturdays 80 miles think I need to do some stretching and foam roller tonight.
Oatmeal and coffee the party has started.
Seared venison tenderloin and eggs sunny side up for breakfast, rifle tuning with a friend later.
If that did not make it a great day, I am sitting hear watching as the boy is putting two and two together and figure out this whole crawling thing. Never thought I could be this sappy, but its pretty awesome watching him grow and learn

Sure you could. Just watch some of the people crossing the finish line. On appearance, you'd think they have no business trying to run one. Running one isn't as amazing a feat as people might think. As with anything, you just need to put in the work. Now running one fast is a whole different discussion.
The swim and bike will be fine. The run is going to SUCK.
I haven't tried to run in weather like this in a very long time. No interest to give it a try again but have fun!
Already did all the running I'm going to do today. Now it's breakfast. I bought a new toilet and installed it yesterday evening. Soon as the coffee kicks in it's time to go christen it,
New toilet poop!Took the woman child to see "inside out" yesterday afternoon and really enjoyed it. Lewis Black as "Anger" was perfect. Note to parents: be prepared to board the express train to feel town if you see this movie with your kids..
Morning Monkeys.
Was supposed to have a skype interview with Bangalore at 9:30, it is now 9:45, WTF. Carry on.
<edit> On the bright side, I am 2 weeks into my "vacation" and I'm almost done with the patio job. While the forms overall look good, it is seriously blah, so little monkey and I are picking up concrete paint colors today and will stone paint them before putting in the sand. Should be a fun project.

I hacked up a voluminous, dark green wad of phlegm this morning. I showed it to my wife since I was proud of my accomplishment--all I get for 5 days running of this upper respiratory infection. She was not impressed by it, or by my timing of showing it to her during breakfast.
I've been trying to bring my 4.5 y.o. to see it, but every time I suggest we go to the movies he's not into it. It will be his first trip to a theater, and when I told him the screens are as big as our house, at first he was amazed, but now I think he's a little scared of that thought. Oh well, there'll be other opportunities I guess.

did you hack it up into a glass....then add a beer and egg?
Cobb steak salad and a delicious stout - the day just went from good to great.
Rode bikes with a friend in the unholy heat and humidity this morning, this heat wave sucks. I hope it will be over before I get re-introduced to the rat race.
Great pics!Riding bikes is fun!!
Also, I like hiking n camping n stuff
...did someone say afternoon coffee? Actually what really sounds good is a cannalemonade. Hmm, to the bong shed!
Thanks!awesome
Almost forgot to mention, I like climbing too
I think she was going for cannabis-lemonde?
Gorgeous again! Where is the climbing area? that looks similar to our Eastern WA areas 
Table Mountain near Jamestown CA. The lower part of the wall has really cool basalt columns that make for some unique climbing. A friend took this a few years ago.Gorgeous again! Where is the climbing area? that looks similar to our Eastern WA areas
Nice! That looks just like ours!Table Mountain near Jamestown CA. The lower part of the wall has really cool basalt columns that make for some unique climbing. A friend took this a few years ago.
A few years ago on The Feathers
Couldn't find a photo of the right wall, but you get the picture I'm sure!
ROLF. I was going to say, "I'm no climber but that doesn't look quite right."
Ghey. I'll take jimmideaned Bunny over this every time.
I drove 3 cars. A Honda Pilot, a VW Passat. And a Toureg. All used and all sucky future headaches. I hate car shopping.
