Hey about that stuff

So about that room and baby, eh?  Well, the room is done and the baby is scheduled to be delivered via C-section one week from now which means this is my last ever weekend not being a parent.  Ho-lee crap.

For some reason I don't have any good pictures of the finished nursery on my phone so here is one of the closet organizer I put in a few weekends ago.  The snaziness is immense.


In other news directly related to the name of this blog, I've been slowly trying to count some gosh darn calories as well as getting back into biking.  I've been doing some rides around the general area of my home as well as going to the riverwalk to enjoy biking paths filled with inconsiderate people who walk in the middle of the damn path.  LEFT YOU SONS-A-BITCHES, ON YOUR LEFT!

On my most recent ride the trusty bike whose cost was 3 dollars USD has developed an ominous creaking noise, no doubt from the millions of pounds of pressure my thunderous leg muscles have been applying on the pedals.  That, or it just needs greased up or something.  For the time being I may be back on the trusty Trek mountain bike that makes up in gearing what it lacks in efficient means of going down the road.  

More likely I'll just stop riding because I'm going to be busy with a baby and stuff.  So yea.

Danny go bye bye

Tomorrow marks the day of babby's first airplane ride (that I don't jump out of)! I'm headed to the 2010 Filemaker Developer's Conference in sunny San Diego so I'm going to be out of the mix for a while. Nerd stuff, ahoy!

I recently posted on reddit (in the /r/bicycling subreddit) about .,_~the bike~_,. and received enough positive feedback that inspired me to get back to it. Unfortunately, with the trip and yesterday's rainy weather (for a change), I'll have to wait at least a little while longer. In any case, I got a lot of good info about my bike and bicycling in general which was very helpful.

A quick update on P90x: I've still been doing it. It was a little easier this week, I think. Last night was yoga-x which I'm growing to like alot, though I only lasted 45 minutes this time. Tonight I'm skipping as well to spend time with Amber, but I fully plan to pick it back up when I get back home.

Today is payday but thanks to quite a bit of up-front money needed for the trip (and paying the mortgage out of this check), the student loan balance only fell $300 to $4,552.27. Hoping to make a much larger dent on the 27th!

That's it for now, I may post some pictures of my trip as they come up.
