i had the money, i bought the pudding.
well, my wetsuit came today. last year's model from f2r, a really good price. you can get custom printing on them. I should have. A batman logo would look sweet, and give me some good halloween costumes for years to come. but i went all black. why do i need a wetsuit you ask? well, i'm a grown man. i'd have looked pretty stupid if i'd spent it all on pudding now wouldn't I. And the wetsuit, on sale, cost me significantly less than the pudding. And if you're not buying 240 dollars worth of pudding, your just screwing around. You did watch the video, didn't you? i'm doing a triathlon in 2 weeks. i should probably go for a swim first. the swim is in a river. the temperature might be 63, at best. as importantly, the wetsuit makes you float, therefore, less Kcalories expended, more speed.
Been playing the guitar a couple hours a day, some progress. Just maded a smoothie, and a pasta salad. Recipes follow.
Smoothie. Put crap in a blender. Blend until smooth. You didn't really want a smoothie recipe, did you? (banana, blueberrie, OJ, water, ice (but varies daily)
Pasta salad: curly pasta, boil, rinse/cool. Add grape tomatoes, finely cut parsely, a cucumber (peeled, cubed), kalamata olives, feta dressing. total time, 10min. Serves, uh, just me. Although, with the leftovers, i guess it serves me, myself, and i.
saturday, an honest rest day. sunday, 2 hours on the mt. bike. Monday, 2 hours on the mt. bike, 45 min run, 5x150m strides, weights. Today, 1:15 Mtb, :30 road, 1 hour frisbee (run, throw, dutch, small field).
For some reason there is this 12 foot diameter hoop. So we set it so part of the hoop was on the field, overlapping the endzone, catch it in the endzone, AND in the hoop, two points. So half the fun was trying to catch a two pointer.
The other half, was attempting to surreptitiously change the portion of the hoop on the field, i.e., during points, when we would get a 'd', after points, attempting to distract the other team, while a team mate would move the hoop. Pretty fun.
Oh, tour's on too. So i've been getting my tour on. Yeah, deep cable.
OK, this PM, gotta go tryout my new wetsuit in the water, then, uh, eat more, and get up, and do-it-again.

You know what I'm asking myself..."Morrison Luke, where'd you get $240 dollas??"
"shhhhhhhh.... ain't none o' yo concern"
yo- L Train... thanks for the props.
how does rsd time stack to yours..
when i read the post... i can't help but want to post... well i've been faster, but my CV is available on line. last i checked, it's a team sport.
so, i guess, I GUESS, i have to fly in for 2008, the year pax strikes bg-ack.
hope the family is well, the offer, to visit, as always, stands tall.
come and kick it. any season.
and, if i'd had another 110 dollars, well, it might have been pudding.
oh, as an aside, apparently, swimming upstream, staring at the bottom of the water, but not moving (my swim workout) causes vertigo for me.
as an aside, it VERY quickly became clear to me, that open water swimming is very different. after about 30 seconds, i started to flail... where is the END OF THE POOL... basically i swam for 15 minutes, and only at the end was i comfortable with the idea of 'open water swimming'.
as opposed to open water. sharks, you know.
i got 1.5 weeks to remove head from buttocks, and get comfortable w/ 15 minutes with no kick turn. considering i never swam competetively, haven't swam in a year. (literally)... welllllll could be a challenge.
Wet cold American summer for you Luke?
After 10+ years The State will finally be available on DVD this fall. About time.
