The Crystal Method - Busy Child: Remixed Version

Mike and I saw these guys live a couple of times and it was awesome. You might not think an electronic act would put on a good show, but it was great.

Ride

Monday, August 25th, 2008

10.5 miles up the trail. 45 minutes, 14.6 avg MPH. Was a good workout. Felt a lot better tonight than I have recently when riding in the evenings. I have a big problem with not getting enough to eat before that evening ride so I often feel pretty crappy before I get on the bike.

Tomorrow I’m going to try getting on a weekly strength workout schedule. Brief ride to warm up, then upper body workout. We’ll see.

A Pretty Good Weekend

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

We had a pretty good weekend around here. We had dinner together on Friday night then I played cards at Mike’s, which was a good time. On Saturday morning I rode in the “Bike the C-Bus” tour around Columbus. I had a really good time and rode about 32.5 miles. I really like riding in the city. It is much more interesting than riding out in the country. I believe this was the first year for the tour, so there were a couple of minor hiccups, but no big deal.

On Saturday night we had a good time with some co-workers of Holly, and Sunday we had lunch with D’Arcy, Heather, and some of Heather’s family.

I’m sitting watching “The Civil War” on PBS, even though I’ve seen it a couple of times. I’ll read for the rest of the evening then hit the ground running in the morning.

Hope you all are doing well.
