update..

So honestly, not much has happened since I last posted. I rode up Petit Jean on sunday.. my knees are sort of sore. We rode farther than I was planning but I survived. Petit Jean kicked my ass something fierce, and it was embarassing when the sag wagon had to ride its brakes up the hill so as not to run over me. Clearly I'm out of riding shape.. so I need to start riding in the evenings again. Hill repeats on river mountain start tomorrow night.. who's with me? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Got a few trips coming up which I'm excited about. I'm quite excited about Chicago and hoping to climb to the top of Sears Tower using the stairs. Don't know if it is going to happen (security and the such) but I've made inqueries and hope to be able to do this. 110 stories.. that would be sweet.

Tower Running sounds like a lot of fun, though insane if you ask me. Now, I'm all about exercise.. but running flat out up dozens of flights of stairs just seems excessive. Would I ever consider trying it? Of course.. would I train for it and race in it? God no. Seems like a good way to ruin your knees. And I like my knees.

Anyways, that is all I've got a the moment. I'm not taking finals like most of my friends, Liz and I went out last night and she cut herself in Pottery Barn. So if you are buying a paring knife from there.. first, they are really sharp.. second make sure to wash it before use. Just so you know.

Ok, that's it.

Let this date be marked as the day when Dave mentioned Pottery Barn in a post.

ALSO: I will be in your neck of the woods on December 21st -- and in Arkansas from December 18th to 23rd. We should do something, as long as that something isn't cutting me in the Pottery Barn.

nooo, liiizz. say it aint so. her little fingers are far too delicate to be handling things like knives. i blame dave for this.

p.s. sometimes i have trouble reading the verification word. we don't all have the 20/20 vision required to read words formatted as if they're on acid, mr. blogger.

Joey: I'll be in town on the 21st.. or should be. Don't have any plans nor a social life to speak of.

Lacy: Wear your damn glass then. I know you hate them, but if you can't read the word.

Props to Joey for posting 2 comments.. huzzah!
