Nice! What color? happy (early/late?) birthday!!

I got a black one with a black/pink band to go with my Betty gear... though I've also asked if I can buy more strap thingys as they're apparently easily interchangeable.  Having just ordered it yesterday and knowing it won't arrive for a few weeks I'm going through want-it-NOW-itis.  

Be glad you weren't one of the Kickstarter funders.  My friend backed them 2 years ago, yes, two years ago and just got her watch last week or the week before.  Cuh-razy!  They do look pretty cool, though, and supposedly have some very good features.  You'll have to let us know how you like yours when you get it.

Is that anyway for a Canadian to talk? You've been in the states too long

Oh the shame!  I've been called out... as punishment I will deprive myself of maple syrup for the rest of the week...  Or maybe just today.  

Sheeeeesh, all this fighting has worn me out!  How 'bout I just come to Florida some time and we have drinks instead??  

 

That's a much better plan!

Rev3 Venice, Nov 7-9. This is the view from the upstairs of the bar where the race is staged:

Sunset is really nice here as well.

Oh muh garsh - that looks FABULOUS!!!  

it is, trust me!

The one time I wore knee warmers I believe I put them over the shorts.

When?!? Don't lie, we know where you live.

He he, I think it was about 55* one morning I wanted to ride. That's cold. Isn't it?

We're soooooooooo fighting!!

I'm pretty sure that it's now officially official (as opposed to almost official?  Or not quite official?  Or somewhat official?)  We're MOVING by the end of this year.  Neither one of us wants to spend another winter in... well... winter.  Making plans to go check out Austin in either April or May for a weekend.  WOOOOOOOT!!!  

unfair fight!!!!!  Yay to the move!!

Unfair??  No way, José!!  You brought this on yourself with all that oooooh 55* is sooooo cold kind of talk.  I must warn you though, being Canadian and having all things hockey-like ingrained in our DNA, the only way I know how to fight is to pull your shirt over your head and then try to land an upper-cut.  


Now I have a great mental picture. Oh and is the upper cut with your stick or without?

NO NO NO!  Canadians will never hit with their stick.  (McSorley doesn't count, he was a member of the Bruins at the time.!)

Sorry excuse the ignorance of the Aussie where hockey is played on grass with studded boots and no padding (unless your the goalie) and anything is fair game , if you don't get seen.

Oh in BIG EXCITING NEWS!!!!

It has "rained" here this morning for the first time since November. I say "rained" because if you had run around in it for the entire 30 minutes that it happened you would have still come inside drier than a nuns crutch.

Thanks for the C25K link. Looks like that might be worth a shot. (And don't anybody worry about putting your foot in your mouth saying I'm old. You're forgiven; I know what you meant.)

Yanti, if "HappyStoned" was referring to me, I DO live in Colorado, where it's now legal to buy recreational marijuana. Not that I have, of course (in case there are any DEA folks in the house.)

Yes, you, HappyStoned

Shirt-fighting, foot shooting with a mouth target, waxing Sedona, fachmie Whoppertime ... these are all important Manatee sports.

What's really funny is we seem to have a high concentration of law-enforcement Manatees. That, and Seventh-day Adventists.

I have found that this group develops it's very own lingo at times. I'd love to get all of Darren's words in here as well, but I have lost track.

The problem with Sharkey's is that it is always crowded with older tourists. To get the real deal Florida feel, travel 20 miles south to Englewood and pop in at Zeke's Icehouse, hidden in the Palm Marina. No crowd, good bands, nice people running it, and real eclectic menu. The beer is cold, real cold. It was on of the stops during pub ride this year. BTW, sunset there is nice:

I'd post one of these every day, but Monica might cry

The most important one I can give is Cwtch. Said as in Butch with a 'k'. Hard to translate into English, but basically means a safe place. So, English people get a cuddles, but only Welsh (and manatees) get a Cwtch.

I bought a shirt at Endurance House that says "Tri high" with the Colorado flag. I can't wear it now for fear of being "randomly" drug tested.

Has anyone seen/heard from Salty? I know she's in Austin so I'm a bit concerned about her.

I thought older tourists were the real Florida! If not them, then families - usually from Europe, burnt to a crisp because the spent all day at Disney or the beach and did not wear sun block.

actually! one of the reasons I like living where I do in Orlando is that it is no where near the tourist area. Not that there is anything wrong with tourists!

Nice! What color? happy (early/late?) birthday!!

I got a black one with a black/pink band to go with my Betty gear... though I've also asked if I can buy more strap thingys as they're apparently easily interchangeable.  Having just ordered it yesterday and knowing it won't arrive for a few weeks I'm going through want-it-NOW-itis.  

Be glad you weren't one of the Kickstarter funders.  My friend backed them 2 years ago, yes, two years ago and just got her watch last week or the week before.  Cuh-razy!  They do look pretty cool, though, and supposedly have some very good features.  You'll have to let us know how you like yours when you get it.

Yowsa!  I didn't even know about them until about 5 months ago and at that time they weren't taking any more orders so I was keeping my eye on the site for when/if they were going to be starting up again.  Once I heard that some were shipping, I decided to get one - but I had no idea that some people had been waiting 2 years for theirs!!

By the way we haven't seen your Betty Gear for this up coming season yet (or I missed it) so where's the pic?

Sorry StaceFace!  I had them in my blog, but here it is in all my cheesy glory...  And yes, I realize the pics are HUGELY cheesy, I couldn't help it, I was excited to put it all on as soon as I saw what had arrived in the mail.

Exactly what I was thinking too!!  When she gets back I'll also need to get a full report on Austin from her as it's at the top of the list for places to move to right now.

The pix look great! Totally not cheesy!!!!!!!!!! As for Salty, did you all hear about the drunk driver that crashed in to dozens of pedestrians on a street closed to traffic in Austin last night?

Not that I have, of course (in case there are any DEA folks in the house.)

I bought a shirt at Endurance House that says "Tri high" with the Colorado flag. I can't wear it now for fear of being "randomly" drug tested.

Has anyone seen/heard from Salty? I know she's in Austin so I'm a bit concerned about her.

More fun = less posting!

Exactly what I was thinking too!!  When she gets back I'll also need to get a full report on Austin from her as it's at the top of the list for places to move to right now.   

The pix look great! Totally not cheesy!!!!!!!!!! As for Salty, did you all hear about the drunk driver that crashed in to dozens of pedestrians on a street closed to traffic in Austin last night?

I did and thought of salty too.

as for your tri high shirt, the Feds are known for their sense of humor, so I think you'd be ok

Not that I have, of course (in case there are any DEA folks in the house.)

Oh no... no, no, no, no, no!   I hadn't heard about that.     

I just checked and her last post on FB was at noon yesterday - I hope she's okay.  I'm feeling all anxious now.

 I'm in line for coffee this morning, and, as usual, Mak incites a conversation with a stranger. His name is Jeff. He works at the bank. He moved here from Chicago less than two weeks ago. He left his wife and 13yo son there while kid finishes school. Wife doesn't like him very much after the latest 8" of snow. Oh, and he'd trade a 13yo for a 3yo anytime. LOL

C'mon, Monica! Even the little bank guy knew when to get out of Dodge.

Oh, and you Betty-fied nicely
