This morning at 4:45am is was 69 degrees, with balmy breezes blowing out of the south.
Shirt-sleeve riding weather. Gotta love those Texas winters!
My 20-mile ride to work took something like 60 miles to accomplish.
Funny how that works….

My asthma has been acting up lately. I’ve had it in a mostly minor form since childhood, but it rarely acts up.
I’ve been unable to kick it for about a month, and at it’s worst, albuterol is not doing much for me, OR lasting very long.
It’s never been clear what triggers it in me…I [...]

I’ve been tasked with looking for an inexpensive used car for my nephew Tyler. His grandfather (my father) is footing the bill for this one, and the intent is for it to get him through college. I really hope Tyler appreciates it.
Hmmm…I hope Tyler appreciates me too…I’ve spent a bunch of time researching and looking [...]

The predictions for this week are for temperatures in the 70’s and possibly 80’s, with breezes out of the south all week.
WoooHoooo! A break from the cold weather!
Just in anticipation of warmer weather I’ve been riding. I did a couple-hundred miles this weekend just doing errands (Garland to Richardson via Bonham and the like) and [...]

Horse smooches for all!

A series of simple events…unrelated…or are they?
The world…and the encounters we find in it…can be so much more than they appear to be…
A bit of a challenge at work…a chance to excercise my skills.
Finally a test of my skills…instead of yet another tiresome test of my patience.
A live concert with my favorite band.
Three hours of [...]

Well, I called in sick to work again today. I was feeling better yesterday and went in, but apparently overdid it. The penalty for that was to spend a horrible night’s sleep, and the morning coughing and blowing about a quart of putrid green jello out of my sinuses.
Ugh.
So, I called in sick…heh…well…sort of. [...]

Wasted work? I’m not sure. I get paid for it…but is that enough?
Anyway, myself and a coworker are attempting to do the reverse-engineering of a particularly nasty system…a system they let all the folks go that constructed the … thing … and a system that is slated for replacement. Why? So we can add [...]

NOT feeling good. Chest cold, sore throat. Headache. Chills. Yeah. The Flu. Yuck.
I actually called in sick to work today. That’s 3 or 4 times in nearly 22 years. That ought to tell you how bad it really is.
And it’s warm out today. I’d rather be riding.

So, today is Groundhog day. Which also means it’s sniper-rifle day. See, if the little git sees his shadow and lives to report it to headquarters, we get 6 more weeks of winter…which means less riding time (or colder riding time). It is no less than a war.
So, pick your location carefully. We can’t [...]
