Sunday : 21 August 05
What constitutes a “good day?”

  • Enjoying a nearly-twenty mile long bike ride?
  • Spending the day in the company of good friends?
  • Having no schedule, to speak of, and just going where you choose?
  • Talking with family members?
  • Resuming a project that has lain dormant for far too long?
  • Saving the world?

If those are the conditions, then today was an excellent day.

I got up and hit the bike trail. I did the south end of the Jordan River Parkway. When the trail ended at 85th South, I did some road riding down to 100th South. The weather was great for it. The bike, after its first tune-up, felt good. Although, I still seem to have some rubbing between the front disc (brake) and the caliper… And, I rode up all of the hills on the way home. Without stopping (other than for lights)

After I got back and made myself presentable to the world at large, , and I made our way to Cocoa Caffè for lunch. While we were there – and completely old, an older gentlemen approached us and did a couple of sleight of hand tricks involving coins. And when he was done… he simply went back to his table. We waved “good-bye” to him when we left.

From there, we meandered back and forth across the valley, eventually we wound up here at the house. While we were sitting around, we decided to take on the next step in the living room project: Removing the trim (wainscot and baseboard). We did. And… AND… I got to use the Sawz-All tonight! *BLISS* If I get to choose the form of my vorpal blade, it will be in the shape of a Sawz-All… and it shall go snicker-snack!

It’s been a week since I changed my uniform to something less… Disco-era 70s.

It’s also about time that my icon reflect that change.

After all, even Dazzler gave up the roller skates and bad makeup.

and I took on the seedy elements of Paragon City’s underworld tonight. We attempted one of his missions… and had our asses summarily handed to us. Repeatedly. Helloooooo, experience debt NURSE! No matter. It just means that we’ll have to gather a band of heroes around us and take on the challenge once more.

And with that, I close.

Namaste.
