Woke up early and went for a 20 mile bike ride. Came home gave the lawnmower a tune-up, cleaned up landmines and mowed the lawn. Went to Home Depot, bought a new screen for my screen door and some paint for the kitchen and vertical blinds for the patio door. Came home again, replaced the screen, washed windows (entire house), and then hung the blinds. Ate some ravioli for dinner, now drinking wine (a decent, but not spectacular Beaujolais) and watching The Godfather Part II.
Tomorrow: Golf, if the weather doesn't get too craptacular. (My nemesis hole awaits.)

Woke up way too early, froze my ass off riding the motorbike to work. Worked until it warmed up, then did a couple hour ride. Crashed a couple of times goofing off in some snow. Now drinking a coke, and sanding my shaft for a hybrid installation later if I play my cards right. Tomorrow, hopefully an early morning ride, followed by 18, weather dependent of course.

and sanding my shaft for a hybrid installation later if I play my cards right. This sounds painful, as well as kinky. Which may be part of the same thing, now that I think about it. It's probably illegal in 37 states, as well. |

Woke early, four-hour "bike" ride including three backtracks (took a new route, no GPS), drooled over new model bike that I can't have, family time, nap, family time, father-child time, watched The Motorcycle Diaries with the missus.
Now: bedtime.

Ever used a manual de-thatcher on a lawn, do you even know what one is? I actually had 2 people stop there cars and asked about the device I was using. It's a good thing that I went to the driving range first.  Our front lawn isn't terribly large, maybe 300 or 400 sq. feet, so I thought I would just do it by hand, man am I paying for it now it took 4 hours, boy I'm a cheap s.o.b. So...today, just took a muscle relaxant to stop the spasms, enjoying a fine cup of Starbucks (which really is a waste ( see muscle relaxants)), and soon I'll be La-La. Somehow I have to find energy later to mow the yards and drop some seed/mulch combo I bought for the front bare spots. Please tell me some of you played today. It's a beautiful Western Washington morning right now, the bluest skies you've ever seen are in Seattle, a bit chilly, but very nice. |

I'm in bad shape today. Drank too much last night.  I'm trying to decide if I should go back to bed or make some eggs. This might be the most activity that I put my brain through today. |

I got out for my first 18 of the year. Weather and schedules are finally cooperating in MN. A little rust with the short game but overall I was extremely happy with how I played. 43-39 82 All is well with the world again.  |
