Note to Self: Just because you don't live in the desert any more does not, in fact, free you from the responsibility of drinking water after working out.

Happy Independence Day, fellow Americans.

I am still amazed that you can buy a good bottle of wine at Safeway... on Sunday no less. Colorado still has Blue Laws, so you have to go to a liquor store to buy your booze, and you can't get a drink on a Sunday unless you go to a bar. Seeing wine at 7-11 is even stranger.

Here's your thought for the day: "You cannot solve a problem with the same thinking that created it."

I never got my proper vacation. No tropical islands, dense forests, or pulsing urban landscapes for me. Not yet.

I thought I'd pop my head back up and see what's going on over here.

I've not had a proper vacation in three years. You know, the kind of vacation where you pack your suitcases just a little too full and forget your toothbrush? The kind where you travel to some far away land and leave "the daily grind" for a while? Yeah. That kind of proper vacation.
