Forgot A Title. Oh Well.

No ride today. You see I have been struggling with a font choice/design for a piece in XXC #10 and it's been driving me crazy! But my persistence paid off (what do you know, I AM good at something!) and I got things looking the way I want. Woot! Woot! Yep, I spent 2+ days obsessing about an article title intro, that most folks won't even notice. Who knew Cooper Black could look so good (I am joking!).

I did find time to head over to Mo-Courts (that's the nickname I gave my gym) to molest the StairMaster for an hour. I usually do like 30 minutes, then weights, then the SM again, but that just seemed lame, so I did an hour straight, then did a HUGE upper body workout on the rowing machine for 10 minutes. Again, I kid. I AM a kidder.

The weekend holds some potential XC skiing, some snow biking, a holiday party, some beers, some beer, and some malted beverages, so tomorrow I might just piss around and ride the trainer so I can represent on the weekend (again with the kidding, get with the program).

BTW, My buddy Craig put up some XXC love on his blog today. Thanks OBR! Much appreciated. While I am on the subject of flaky Canadians- Do you know what the last REAL (non e mail) thing I heard from Craig was? No, no you don't 'cause you ain't me...

It was the 2009 Wilderness 101... Craig passed me at about mile 70(?) on his single speed as I walked a climb, I was completely destroyed as per NUE hundie usual. He made some wise ass comment about how fine my ass looked (he didn't, but a guy can dream), and moved on ahead. Then I hear him scream back to me "blah, blah, blah, blah, eh." "What???" I asked. "Blah, blah, blah, blah, eh!" He again screams. I think it best to ignore him, but he screams one more time. This time I heard him- "WATCH OUT! THERE'S A RATTLESNAKE UP HERE ON THE RIGHT!!! EH!!!" Ohhhhhhhhh, THAT is what he was saying. (Enter one soiled chamois). Never did see the snake, but at least he was kind enough to let me know, eh.

Later.
