Time to prime the pump

Took some time off the bike last week to relax. Jumped on the Red Menace and rolled ~80 miles on Saturday. Not bad legs felt a little cooked. Did a great mtb ride at grand ridge and duthie. Legs definitely shot after that one. Back to the grind today. rollin out for 60 then job hunting. giggidy giggidy, giggidy goo.

Busy, Busy, Busy

Damn, almost missed my meeting today but made it with time to spare. Did all i needed then got to back home to suck the caffeinated drink of life. Applied for roughly 8 jobs today. A little crazy I know but doing what I gotta do.

long time gone

Was off riding and staying in my mind for the past 2 weeks trying to figure things out. I find it odd that when i do these little introspective journeys I end up over thinking shit and just make myself mad and stressed out. So i will try and not do it.

Today i cashed my first check as a Government Illustrator. Yes, that is right I am drawing a paycheck...............fro the gov'ment. Hopefully you are lucky enough to never feel the emasculating that unemployment brings, but it does help to quell the monetary stress. Another month of rent payed.

Gonna start to paclk my shit up so that I can begin to take things to Bellingham. Store my shit for a bit while I figure things out.

A little over 3 days in and I am already getting bored. I finished almost all of the things I have been "planning" on finishing. Was going to wait till the first to start training but I guess it will begin tomorrow.

I never thought I would say it but damn i miss working. FML.

One Hour

cyclocross races do nothing for you if you are gonna go on long rides. Today was the first 2+ hour ride i have done for the new training season. Got home, ate, showered and passed the fuck out. Could be a combination of cold, rain and pace but damn. Out son, out! Working on getting the Pinarello back together for a training bike so i can clean and put the raliegh away. The crawl tonight should be interesting to say the least.


Proof that this crawl does not usually end well.

Sweet

Time to start long rides tomorrow or today that is. Long easy ride to Snohomish. No leg breaking mine included. Not yet at least.





DO WORK SON!!!

Another day.........

Morning came, had coffee and walked the dog. Not too bad but I prefer doing it in a rush so that I can get to work on time. Who am i kidding? On time? Mehhhh. Being able to work your own hours is awesome. Now I just got to get back to that. Talked to the pops today. Man that has to be tough. Living in Detroit as a retiree has too be hard. I know I ain't going back anytime soon or ever. To live that is. Visiting is ok, cuz you still get to leave. C'est la vie. I can now have a beer or too and not have to worry about getting a ride in to cover the calories. Come January though I am training my......what the hell am i thinking. What else do i have to do. Hell yeah, 6 days of 4+ hour rides followed by a nap here I come!!!!!!! Recover day then repeat.
