Hey, Tinker - "Live today, await tommorow, remember yesterday... everything happens for a reason. life's too short... dance naked ~tinkerbell"

I need to add to the end - "but not close to the flames".

Hi Emily!

how'd your exam go?

Meh.  I feel neither good nor bad about it.  On the plus side, it seemed like lots of folks were struggling so if I did poorly at least I'll be in good company.

I can't talk to Phil for pages at a time either.... Oh! That's not what you meant!

I am slacking in the best way, I am not working today. I work a 3-day week and I now have Wednesday and Friday off. Yay! I spent the afternoon getting the new Cervelo fitted! I couldn't be happier right now.

Pictures?

I like to stare at shiny bikes!

Me too, I love checking out bikes! I'll post a picture, but it's not bike porn worthy yet. This shot was just after the fitting but it has no brakes/gears yet, the bars aren't taped. I went with the silver bar tape and white brake cables, it will look amazing! It will either be ready tonight or tomorrow. The bottle cage and computer I wanted are on order as well so I'll take it back in a couple weeks and have it finished. I'm hoping to have my race wheels soon as well. I can't wait to ride it!

LOL!  that's a good one!  I may have to add that on

Did they hook you up with an aero tapper, or perhaps a flask?

Maybe i should fill my gel flask with booze, that would be so like me

a 3 day work week sounds like a winner!  how can I get one of those?

I quit my job and risked it all to be a freelancer. I successfully made it through the first year, but I had to give up a lot in the process. Unfortunately I don't get paid for the time off, but i don't care. I'd rather have the time!

But just wait when you meet her in person.  2 hours fly by, and you just MIGHT get a word in.

You liked it! You're quite the chatter yourself!

that's cool!

I don't really have the type of job that I could freelance at

very nice!

I *heart* that paint scheme!  I really, really want to go bike shopping but it is so not fiscally responsible at this point. 

I also want to take my road bike in to have aerobars installed and get a proper fitting.  But I'm sort of afraid that the "new bike fumes" will go to my head and I'll accidently forget all about being responsible and walk out with a brand new bike.

I guess I'll have to live vicariously through you.  Enjoy that new ride! 

It's not red.  WTF??

I loves me the Cervelo.

If you say so...

Oh I SO relate to that... my bike is going in to get serviced this weekend.... she doesnt know that yet but she IS.. 

The shop Im going to stocks Bianchi bikes... and I just love Bianchi Blue bikes... they just look so pretty... 

I was on the website and right now they have one in MY size for $2.5K that I would look so HOT riding... uh oh... 

Oooh so whens the first ride? 

The sad part is, I've only had my current bike for about six months.  In no way to I NEED a new bike.  What I need is to work on the engine.  But, dang, those bikes look FAST!

go Phillies!

so, I haven't been able to ride my bike since I moved out here

my helmet, sunglasses, and tire pump went to storage and my bike went to the apartment..........

didn't worry about it at first - too much to do to get settled on the weekends

tried looking for the stuff in storage..............

and now that we're settled, I'm questioning whether or not I should spend the money on something I won't use for another 6 months

- unless.............hmmmmmmmmm, I wonder if I could get a deal?

esc - 2008-10-22 9:28 PM I'll sell ya my bike for cheap.  Then I'd have an excuse to buy a new one!

that sounds like a plan!

hmmmmm

what a lonely night in the dark arts thread

g'night all!

Hey team, I had a few to drink tonight I've been considering a career move to the beer industry for 1.5 years so I spent tonight with the master brewer, president and lead sales guy of Duvel USA. They've almost got me convinced

But it took many beers and I'm meeting  BTer rcberto for a run at 7am so I need to regroup and go to bed! Hope everyone had a great night. I'm going to catch up on the thread now.

Are you totally moved to Philly or are you splitting time with Nebraska?
