Anova tests make me want to rip apart my homework.
No ride in the AM as I'd wanted, this is taking far too long. I need to get my shiet together. Major slacking/lack of motivation on the math hw front...

SO BORING!

Sometime, at some point in some race, you're going to watch what happens and go:

"Really? Are you F'ng kidding me?"

Last night my youngest daughter practiced the song she's singing at the talent show tomorrow night. And she did it with just the music. I got choked up and teary-eyed from hearing her. She has such a beautiful voice.

Track class this weekend, then the pre-season starts up next month.

Can't wait!! Will allow me to race 2-4 times a week with road & velodrome combined.

Yay bikes.

I was hoping for that, but I think it is a better plan for me to wait till next year and not overdo+burn-out this year... hope you tear it up out there!

Question: What can I expect from (insert name/style/type of race)?
Answer: It's going to hurt. You will probably not win. Have fun.

It's moments like this that my childless friends miss out on...for every thing I've given up by having children, I've received joy like this ten times over.

So last night I'm in the kitchen washing up and the kids come in: "Dad, what do you want for your birthday?"

Took everything I had not to say "To be able to go on a frickin' ride without your mother hassling me about what time I'll be back."

So I said, "Oh anything you and your mom get me will be great!"
