  1. 6.5 hours later...the laundry is finally done, folded and put away. UGH! Hopefully never again!
  2. Since the washer is dead, I have TWELVE trash bag or that size bags of laundry to do at a laundromat. I hope no one else needs washers!
  3. Kind of chilly, but a nice 2 hour check out ride on the Roubaix. I think I've nearly gotten things perfect, it's close!
  4. It's FINALLY official. I'm Specialized!
  5. Well this is the day I am "supposed" to get the new set of wheels. Hopefully I'll get my kick butt Roubaix with snappy red bar tape today!
  6. Bicycle HELL continues. The wheels arrive today, but "my" handlebars are put on a bike other than MINE. New ones arrive tomorrow? Hopefully!
  7. @JoaoFaustino yeah I guess so, but I would imagine he will have a higher end bike than my Roubaix.
  8. The latest on the "wheel saga" is they "should" be in tomorrow. I got a guarantee I will ride this weekend. 'bout time! I'm gaining weight!
  9. Deborah figured out, the hard and painful way, rental car companies don't let you have one of their cars if your license is expired! DOH!
  10. Spectacular day in Carolina today-73 degrees and sunny. Probably a great day to ride a bicycle for those with...WHEELS! ARG!!!!!!!!!!
  11. All of my bike is in except...wait for it....THE FREAKING WHEELS!!! Oh well I've been whipped most of the day anyway. Lots "dad stuff"!
  12. Close, but yet so far. Everything for the new bike came in except wheels & the frame. Maybe tomorrow, damn freight forwarders! They vex me!
  13. One of the ultimate acts of devotion to one's wife: sitting on the couch during So You Think You Can Dance...at least I have a good book!
  14. I found out today that all the components for the new bike should be in on Thursday. Maybe, just maybe, I'll be back in the saddle Friday!
  15. There's a problem when the school office person knows who you are because you've had to deliver forgotten lunches so many times. Sigh...
  16. Today is a White Rabbit day-"I'm late, I'm late for a very important date!" OR maybe Tigger, "time to bounce!" which seems less stressed!
  17. # Castle. What was in the stolen messenger bag? Off the top of my head nuclear launch codes or Dick Cheney's soul on the way to the devil.
  18. Today would have been my Mom's 70th birthday. I've spent time a lot of today realizing how lucky I was to have her in my life. Miss you mom!
  19. When you get older, studying makes you realize how LITTLE you know rather than how much you know.
  20. Final spec on the new ride. Roubaix frame-carbon and red. Rival with 172.5 cranks, Mavic Ksyrium wheels. Maybe Qrotors too.Thoughts anyone?
