Anyone wanna pitch in on a racetrack and 100 acres of surrounding farmland? I'm in for a 1/50th share.

Luckily our cat gets by without nail work. We just have to get her a new cardboard scratch pad every 9 months or so

Took the bike out for a little spin to get the sealant all good and distributed. At first blush, the wheels feel pretty nice. Very smooth. The hub is more subdued than I'd like, though - how is a hub that quiet supposed to herald my approach to the MUPpets?

Aaaaand it was as I'd suspected - no one was picking the box because of the hold on the package for an unpaid duty balance of $0.00. ![Not Amused](images/smilies/brood.gif)
I've been told to call them back in another four hours, if I haven't heard from them first. Thankfully, I've been given a direct line so that *knock on wood* I don't have to wait in queue for another 15-20 minutes.

Buffalo Springs 70.3 cancelled in the middle of the day yesterday, while some people were en route and couldn’t cancel hotels. I’m still inclined to believe this whole year is a wash, and I won’t believe any event (athletic or otherwise) is going to happen until several are successfully completed.
That includes any sort of football.![Frown](images/smilies/frown.gif)

No clue. Haven’t had anything traumatic happen in recent memory. Started having shoulder pain in March and attributed it to the working from home adjustment. It got bad enough last week that I went to the ER and they did an MRI.
The pain comes and goes but I meet with an orthopedic next week to find out what the long-term deal is. In the mean time I bought one of those hanging upside down tables which actually helps a bit.

Glad I check my tires before every ride. This lovely shard of glass was stuck in my front from yesterday’s ride.
