I'm sorry.

Not that you're back, that you're a triathlete.

Awww, Queenie, it got me on a street bike. That's good, right?

Other than that, glad to hear you're doing well.

Thanks. How 'bout you? You had a rotten 2004 as I recall; is 2005
shaping up better?

I'm ok. I took super-easy classes this semester, so school's cake.
Work's work. Cat still only has three legs. So, situation normal for
the most part.

Were you planning on getting a fourth leg for the cat?

As I recall, it was expensive enough outfitting it with three.

And a tail, too.

Just practicing pointy sticks of my own. I've picked up requisite
vocabulary, partly thanks to you.

How's your training? Did you ever buy that town bike? I had a great
time on Key West with a rental town bike tooling around the island. It
undid half the winter's training, though, to sit upright like the Wicked
Witch about to be flattened by a house. And all my careful training to
unclip at stop signs was undone by having to use pedal brakes to stop!
But the great big wire basket was handy for beach trips, and the big fat
tires were handy for cranking along on sand at 6 mph. :-) I'm not sure
if I want a my own town bike or my own private island... whichever it
was, it was fun.

When were you in Key West? And what were you doing on a bike? You
can't do the Duval Crawl on a bike.

I went there after tax season ended. Just me and my hubby in a B&B at
the southern end of Duval. We did the Duval Crawl each night, had a
grand time, drank a lot of rum and tequila, ate at fabulous restaurants,
heard great music, found a great place to watch the sunset (top of La
Concha Hotel) and spent the days cycling around the island utnil we
landed on a beach. Beaches, bars & bed. It worked for me.

Besides the cycling, I got in some open water swimming and we went
running most mornings. I came home with a weight loss. Hard to believe
when I add up the alcohol calories.

I went snorkeling Sunday and Monday. I was in Titusville the Thursday
before that where I played golf, went boating on Friday and then to a
7 Mary 3 concert in Melbourne Friday night. Got up early Saturday and
headed down to Key West. Did the Duval Crawl both nights and came
back late Monday. Played golf Tuesday and then hopped a flight home.

So he can run out into the street and get runned over by another car? I
think not. He can stay inside on the bed where he belongs.

I sure hope he gets up to use the litter box.

Ayuh, he does. He's quite fastidious that way.

He's actually very active for an ancient three-legger. And I do still
let him go outside, but he doesn't go nearly as often or for nearly as
long. He seems pretty content to sleep on the bed, survey the backyard
from a window, and get up to play with fish-on-a-stick when he gets
bored with that.

Training? What's that?

Seriously, I have been dealing with some health-related difficulties but
they are on the way to being under control, and part of doing that is
getting back to lifting very regularly and not being a flake about it,
like, ever. I've had a few weeks now of being a slug but I am getting
back on track even as we speak, and I'm going to take a weight training
class next semester so we shall see what happens with that.

I have not gotten any new bikes, but I'm still hoping to work a deal
with my barista-chick friend before she leaves town, which I think is
next month.
