It ALL HaPPeNs FoR a ReaSoN

This past weekend was great. I got ZERO Miles in. That's OK, I figure I will get more miles in next weekend in 30 or so hours then most people do all month. It was what I would call a weekend exercise in Flexibility.

Friday I had plans to do dinner with a friend, but canceled them due to Financial budget concerns AND my Saturday plans got bumped up.

I took my sons to see the Wolf man movie with my Momma, and we ate some Pizza Hut, it was good wholesome times.

That Saturday morning, I got up and did a good hearty Yoga work out and got the boys up. My Saturday plans with Ms. Art Director got Cancelled on account that she didn't feel so good. I was more bummed about her not feeling good than anything, I hate to hear someone is under the weather. Then it suddenly hit me. The very thing I have worked hard to avoid was once again manifesting itself.

One of the main things I noticed when my previous relationship disintegrated was that I had no friends aside from the pedal pedal pedal kind to do some normal regular social stuff with. I have been working hard since January 1st to remedy that, and I thought I did a good job of it, but my sudden change of plans showed me that I indeed had not.

I called some other friends but they were all busy studying. I am done with school, I got no studies, I am established, I have no such constraints. SO, I had some work to do on the Black for the upcoming Huracan ride so I packed a bag and headed to the shop.

Hung out with the guys failed miserably at installing a derailleur pulley, noticed I was missing a limit screw, and then before I knew it I was leaving there on my way home on a Saturday night with nothing to do. I was kind of bumming about it.

Then I got a call from a girl that had tried to talk to me, but I had dismissed cause I was not interested. She needed a ride to the super market, and since I had nothing better to do, I said OK. I gave her a ride, when we went back to her house some people were over so we hung out, I had a brewski and some entertaining conversation and managed to get a hold of my friend John.

All morning I had wanted to Get 2 for 1 at chili's where its always 2 for 1 all the time. But I had no one to go with and I don't drink alone, LOL. So I went to visit John, he shared some problems he has been having with lately, I got on my soap box and discussed Primal Nutrition with him, then we headed out to Chili's . All day I had wanted two for one and I got it!

So, I had drinks, we chatted, John is one of the few people that really makes me laugh my ass off, and I laughed so hard. We had the worst server ever, I got a buzz on, took John home, then went home myself and crashed in my bed.

Got up the next morning, feeling good and ready, got my sons and hung out with them all day long, enjoying the warm weather. Cranked out my taxes and just really had a nice relaxed Sunday.

I still got to make some final tune prep on the bike, and I want to convert the Fixie machine back to off road goodness, but I took it easy after the taxes and sat and enjoyed a movie with the boys and eventually some good conversation with some new friends and some old friends before bed.

Overall, not a bad weekend and the perfect peaceful weekend to prelude the Hardcore Bonanza I will endure next weekend.

Will I be able to do what I need to do to beat the Roberts? I don't even really know, truth be told I will be happy to complete the loop!

Take Care,

Laters,
