My Keys: The following paragraph was originally part of yesterday’s entry. Diane and I left for the Seattle Airport from British Columbia right around 7:30 p.m. One-hundred miles later I noticed I didn’t have my van keys with with me. I made calls to work at 10:30, after I’d gone through airport security, and left [...]
On November 12 I posted about wearing a pair of old shoes that had caused me some problems and how I purchased a new pair of shoes that had cost me a small (by my standards) fortune. On February 21 I posted about how the new shoes had seemingly degraded enough that they were no [...]
When I was eleven I went trick-or-treating dressed as Snoopy. I was in a head-to-toe Snoopy costume my mother had sewn and I had a big paper mâché Snoopy head we’d made. The point is – I was totally covered by the costume. Yet, as I strolled up my neighbor’s driveway, the neighbor lady said [...]
For those interested in my most recent blood work (and to the new readers, I keep an eye on my prolactin/testosterone) you can read about it at my other site. The Hormone Table is current. Technorati Tags: Hormones,Prolactin,Testosterone
A short while ago I pulled a muscle in the back of my leg. I referred to is as “pulling a hamstring” even though I recognized pulling a hammy typically caused more discomfort. This was more a pull where my hamstring connected to whatever it connects to just behind the knee. And in all honesty, [...]
You know what they say, “Dentists do it in your mouth.” At least that’s what they printed on T-shirts or bumper stickers or something back in 1985. (Whattayaknow? They still say it.) Today I had a root canal. It isn’t my first, and I can’t say I’ve ever had a particularly painful one, but this [...]
I made a trip to the Endo yesterday to have some blood drawn. As we sat in the examination room (or whatever they’re called) he looked down at a paper in my file and said something like, “Oh my.” “Is it about the weight?” I asked. “You’re up 32 pounds in the last six months.” [...]
[Original Title: 11.64 Stone] I hopped on the scale today and ran it up to 263 pounds. This is 30 pounds greater than I weighed at the end of the last cycling season. At least I think it is, I seem to recall hitting 233 and thinking I was pretty close to 229. Here’s what [...]
Once in a while I’ll go off caffeine – the last time was last summer — and I’ll be a good caffeine-free sort of person for a while until I’m not. And when I’m not, just about every fluid I take in is caffeinated. The exception being when I take long bike rides and tote [...]

Today marked my first ride of the season. A couple of years ago I managed to ride most months. I think. In any case I know I had a longer riding season that I had last year. Blah blah blah featuring one or two more excuses regarding the weather. I don’t think I’ve ridden since [...]
