Knocking it out

I had to go out to a branch that is on my way home yesterday afternoon to do some work.  I got done a little early so I headed home, it gave me a nice block of time to get some stuff done before I had to head to Ali’s place to help her with some web site issues.

I did the laundry, cleaned the bird cage and got the house cleaned in the span of 90 minutes. Hell I even had time to replace the air box in my Tacoma before heading out.

This weekend I have a race to time, my least favorite race to do so.  It is run on the beach which means dragging the timing and computer equipment down on to the sandy beach.  It is always a big pain in the ass trying to clean stuff up afterward. With a race like this I don’t know that chip timing really matters much at all since it is not official distance and the sand makes survival more important than speed.

This weekend I might try to do another training brick, I’m not sure if it would be a two or three sided variety.  Sunday is the first game for the Tarpons, the local arena football team that I bought season tickets for.  It will be fun to check out the game.  I never had a bad time at a Tarpons game to date.

I have no doubt I won’t have a problem filling in the remaining blanks in the weekend.  There is ALWAYS something to be done.

Today is my brother Patrick’s birthday.  It’s hard to believe he is 27.  It seems like it was only recently that I was down in the basement of the Gouglersville house playing ping pong with the 12 year old version of Pat.  I love that he is living his life the way it should be done.
