So what do you think?

Okay, I'm taking a poll to see if I should actually do this Bike to Work Day 2006. It's nearly two weeks away so I'd really have to work at it. I'm not a member of a gym in DC nor do I have any interest in joining one. There are no shower facilities in the building. I could bring a change of clothes and do the baby wipe cleaning method. I'm probably way to eager and therefore unaware of my current physical limitations. I'd be too afraid to leave my bike locked up out side, fearing someone would steal the seat, handle bars, front tire or anything else they can take of the bike easily. I've seen the aftermath of that senario. Oh yeah, it's Gaithersburg to DC! I'd have to get down to the Bethesday metro center by 7:00 am and then go to DC. Not to mention, I have to make a return trip home. Boy oh boy, I'm starting to sound crazy for even considering this adventure. Any t houghts?

100th post

I hope no one is expecting great and wonderful things from my 100th post. I'm not even certain this is #100. My dashboard said I have 99 posts but does that count the drafts? Ah, who cares, no need to over think this post. It's number 100! Has it come a long way, possibly. For awhile, I crammed sports into the post until I decided to move all that talk into another blog, which I hardly ever write in:( Lately, I haven't written much simply because I don't have much to say. Heck, I don't even have a lot to report on in my life. There have been developments which at some point I will share so I can officially send out my thoughts into the cosmos. News flash, I think I opened something up at work I shouldn't have because I randomly get popups. It's so annoying. Not too mention I totally disregarded a helpful note in an email sent to me yesterday saying the email is not work safe. Naturally I opened the email, froze for a second and turned off my monitor. The sly cat that I am, I right clicked my mouse and prayed silently that the special slide show had closed. To my delight, it did close and disaster was adverted. For the curious ones, lets just say the slide show was a man laying in a hospital bed surrounded by some very attentive nurses. I should have know that the email wasn't work safe considering the source of the email. Former soccer mates usually send something very manly and it's normally no where near the tameness of the dial soap commercials for the oil can - "I'm a man, yes I am."

Well, that's all folks. Sorry I don't have any tall tales to tell right now. In time I will and hopefully you all will enjoy the story. Until next time....

Where am I???

Do you ever feel like your mind is not in the same place as your body? Today I feel that way. I'm not sure what's going on and I feel like I'm off in some distant land while this shell of a body is going through the motions. I can still think and collect my thoughts but what I'm feeling has nothing to do with what's going on. I'm not sure how to explain it. This morning I could hear the bird chirp of my alarm and it kept chirping for a while. I could hear it but I didn't want to leave where ever I was during my dream. I felt I had to finish something. Reluctantly, I rolled out of bed and hit the snooze five minutes before the actual alarm goes off. I have one of those aroma, light and sound alarms. I usually hit the snooze 15 minutes into the little program. The alarm goes off after 30 minutes. Anyways, even though I did a little 20 minute workout, took care of Scooter, put the monday morning trash out, made lunch, ate breakfast, watched sportcenter, and made my way to work; I feel like I'm somewhere else. I went through my morning routine without any thought. I feel a sadness and that I'm searching for something but I don't know what. Whatever it is, it's not here. It's wherever my subconciousness is right now. One day, I really would like to know what goes on in my subconcious mind especially on days like today. What in the world is it doing?
