Woo! Week three and bike riding continues! I'm pretty proud of myself for keeping up with it. It has totally saved me a lot in gas money and it is really good exercise. The rain should be starting within the next 3-6 weeks, hopefully it is more like six, the more bike riding the better.

For the first time in a while it feels like things are controlled. I paid off a credit card last week, which was a small step, but a very important one. I've still got three more to go, but I'm making progress, and would really like to see myself not use them during the holiday season.

I've been working a ton lately, upwards of 48 hours a week. It is a bit tiring, but the money is good, and I'm too busy to spend it, hence the credit card bill going away.

I work in the sales department today, should be a nice piece of cake...

 
As far as baseball goes, the National League West is usually comprised of some pretty good teams. This year it's a whole other story. The first place team is one game below .500 and only leads by 5.5 games, that is just sad. It is also sad because the Giants are doing so poorly, that they are in second place. The good news is, is that they still have a chance of winning the NL West. They have 14 games left to play and 4 of them are with the first place Padres. It sure does make for some exciting baseball. I feel a bit bad for hard working teams that have way better records but have no chance of going to the playoffs. Nobody from the NL West deserves to go, but someone has to, so it might as well be the Giants.

Here's hoping they kick the crap out of the Dodgers this afternoon.

 
Riding my bike felt good, but weird. It was the first time in two and a half years that I had been on the thing. I am definitely not in the shape I used to be in, I got to work and was all flushed and sweaty and lightheaded. It felt good though. The ride home, which is slightly uphill, was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Today the weather is crappier out and should provide for a better bike riding experience as the cool air will cool me down while en route. I work all weekend, and might be going to a house warming party on Saturday, we shall see.

 
Got my bike yesterday! That means today is the first day of riding to work! Woo hoo!

 
Bored....

It's labor day and kelly is at work laboring...

I should be cleaning something, maybe even myself. Instead I've been loafing on the couch watching tv and cruising the internet. A bunch of people went to Fern Canyon this morning, i should have gone, but with gas at the low low price of 3.19/ gallon, i need to not drive. I'm getting my bike fixed as I type this, hopefully I can pick it up tomorow. I plan to bike to work from now on. It's only 3 miles away, and a terrible waste of gas. I'm excited about my bike, I haven't been on it in over two years. sad to think about it like that, but it's true. I'm hoping the bike riding will help put me back into some shape, or at least get me fit enough to where I can start exercising again. I was jogging pretty regularly before i moved up here, and it just fell apart, i need to start again.

I think I want to move to Seattle. not sure when, or how, but i think that might be my next move...

 
2275 miles! That was the total amount of miles I put on my car during my 12 day excursion. It sure was fun! I'm glad to be home, but man, I cannot wait to go back to Vegas. That city is just too much fun.
