Why is New Year’s a work holiday? Can I trade mine in for a nice sunny day in June?
My new Christmas socks are hugging my calves like they want to be hugged.
Ice is harder than asphalt.
Public admission: I have never played Guitar Hero.
It’s a Christmas miracle! I enjoyed my time on the trainer this morning.
Turns out I don’t hate winter, just hate winter winds (and christmas elves).
Fairly certain the inside of my house is registering a wind chill.

Whatever evil goo that has been sloshing around in my head for three days just drained down into a basecamp in my throat.
Yeah, I know the corporate dress code does not include a thermal cap, but I’m fucking cold.
Actually cold enough to buckle my sidewalk overnight. I pulled a frisbee-sized concrete chunk that had jumped skyward.
I am sick. Might be the result of the 12-degree wind that blew across the 65-degree Kansas plains at 10am sunday morning.
11 hours till race time. Tall glass of water and time for bed. Zzzzzzzz.
Just awoke in KC. Sounds like hurricane force winds outside. Rattling the windows.
Counting down to KCCX. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Sending some muddy thoughts to Missouri.
Natz race site is down. Not good.

BOXEE video is messed up … hmmm. http://skitch.com/lonelydimple/68uq/boxee
My first Boxee attempt CRASHED my system. Pfft.
The commute home tasted salty.
My knuckles are dried and cracked.
WWP trail is nearly un-rideable. Solid sheet of ice from river bridge to Greenwood Park. Very slow ride home.
Looks like we have a new local twitterer @CAT1Racer
Awoke early to put the studded tires on my bike. Glad I did. Unexpected re-freeze on some trails overnight. Slickery[sic].
Wishing today I stilled lived in IL. Iowa politics are sooo boring. No bodies, hand-cuffs, or hookers. Correction, there are ALWAYS hookers.

Snow. Blow. Blow. Snow. Who sews Crow’s clothes? Sue sews Crow’s clothes.
I think my tweets would be better if I got a new phone for Christmas. With better equipment I could be the next @hotdogsladies.
Winter Weather Advisory = it might snow.
I loathe the early-winter, flurry of I’m-so-“PRO”-I’m-selling-my-6Month-old-bike emails that flood my INBOX during the holiday season.
I have reached my daily caffeine intake limit. How do I know? Eyeball buzzing.
My son is consistently impressed with my video game skills. More so than my ability to feed, clothe, and house him.
I think I’ll be cheering for Lance as he makes his comeback … sometimes I hate myself.
Wow, all these new Facebook friends are making me nostalgic … I just “front-faced” some books on my desk.

“Leave me alone I’m a family man, and my bark is much worse than my bite” … Damn you, Pandora!
Skipped the ride to work this morning. Pfft.
I very rarely say what I mean. It’s a character flaw. I blame my mother.
It was definitely a balaclava morning. Too bad I left mine at home.

After a weekend living in the mud, it’s hard to return to my nice, clean cubicle.
