You know, it's tough trying to keep up with two blogs at once. I'm also on tribe.net and I'm never sure which one to update... therefore, as is more often the case, neither one gets updated.
Brief run-down on life...

Looks like the move to Munich is somewhat emminent. A few work political and procedural things and we'll know for sure. Then, I guess, we'll need to figure out exactly when it'll happen. Life's crazy I'm telling you.

I'll let you know when I find something out. Hopefully soon. It's only been a few days... 10 or so and we're both getting tired of waiting to hear anything difinitive.

So you'll be a Gentleman of leisure? Ace!
Well, the girlfriend got home at 8:30 last night. Damn, it was great to see her walk off that plane. The poor girl was exhausted as it was 3:30 according to her internal clock.
This morning after some rest... we pretty much screwed each other's wheels off. It was pretty great. Amazing how much you miss someone's smells, tastes, the way that they feel, etc....

Hi, I'm from munich. Just wanted to say welcome and if you have any questions just ask.
I think the basics have been covered in the thread in the sggermany group. Munich's expensive, good accomodation is not easy to find (try to find something close to the river, preferably south of the center). Job Situation is better than most parts of germany and there's lots of english speaking folks around.
Other than that munich's a really beautiful city, very clean (too much so for some). It's a little hard to crack, cause people are not what you would call open. Don't let that scare you. Once you've connected with the vibe it's really like a large village.
And if you love the outdoors and cycling you'll be very happy around here.
Anyway, good luck and let me know, if I can help.

It's sooo fucking hot here today. I, finally, broke down and turned on the air conditioning. We're supposed to go for our regular Wednesday night ride but it's soo hot. It might actually feel better to move and get the breeze than to just sit and sweat.
Count down to final verification whether we're going to move or not.... 7-10 days and counting... in reverse.

So, today's fun... I drove the hour out to the race course this morning only to have it start thunderstorming so hard that you couldn't see in front of the car, let alone race a road bike in it. Fuck! I made the decision to head home and accomplish a few things.
I'm on the way with that task.
I've put a new front derailluer...

O.K., so... got the profile pic updated. Yes, that's me in the kilt at the Acme Bicycle Company sponsored Alley Kat race a couple of weeks ago. I didn't do so well in most of the events, but I walked away with an awesome IRO (www.irocycle.com) Mark V frame and fork.
So, round two of trying to update the journal for today. Fuck! I need a new computer or to clean up the one that I currently own. Way too many pics and MP3's of way too many types to ever keep up on.
Amazing what you can find in newsgroups. Wow! There's even a Suicide Girls group out there. Damn, I love these girls/women. They're...

Well, been thinking about actually starting to write in here occationally and make more of an effort to update my journal and make it worthwhile for me to have my on-line friends. Obviously, I don't have many now.
Help me along here folks. O.K., I'm late leaving for work.
Briefly, it's looking like crap weather today which means I'll probably be running in the rain...

Today, lazy day but piddling around the house fixing shit and cleaning. Oye... nothing like being a bachelor. Especially when your house was nearly all Brown in and out when you bought it and have yet to gain the motivation to start chaning that. Not sure how those two things sugue together, but it's the best that I could do.
Question... why is it that...

Fucking up in the middle of the night thinking about my most humbling moment. Don't fall in love with one of your best friends if she's not going to be able to handle it.
The results are now nearly six months old and we haven't talked for nearly two of those. I'm pretty sure our friendship is gone for good and any hope of reconciliation...

Hotter than hell here today. With the humidity it's theoretically going to be over 100 degrees. Sure, if you're in Phoenix, that's nothing, but it's a jungle here.
Hung out at home and worked on my bikes and my nieces bike last night. Not much going on in town.
Today, I'll go ride with some friends and I may go see an afternoon movie just...

And about the ruining of a good frienship, I've almost done that, too. My first reaction after the split was to check on this girl that I've always had a mild crush on and she fell madly in love with me. Then I had to realise that there's no way I could deal with a new commitment right now. And that the only reason for me going out with her was to make myself feel better. She didn't like that. And I didn't like it either. But we're okay now.
