Biking, Climbing and Work

For the 3rd time this week I'm getting ready to go for a bike ride. I am really starting to enjoy biking, and I am become less and less scared of going fast and falling off a cliff!

I have been biking a part of Palmer Park over by our apartment that is pretty fun it's about a 1.5mile trail downhill from where I start, the climb back up to the car is not nearly as fun though!

Today I think I may take a bit longer of a ride see if I can't get lost in the park...which is not very hard to do.

Sunday I am going climbing with Dan as I finally have all of the equipment I need as in shoes, harness, helmet, chalk bag and chalk. We are going to top rope climb though I am a bit more interested in bouldering so I need to find someone to try that out with as well.

Work has been stressing me way out this week and I need to get back on the ball with it, I'm not sure that corporate america is for me though....we'll see how that turns out. Part of me says suck it up it's a job and a good paying one but the other part of me wants to be happy all the time with what I am doing.

Off to bike I suppose....oh yeah the picture is the bike that I have except mine is red and white.

It's A Me!

Easter Time

So the studio is busy again, well it's busy enough for me to say were busy, nothing like the Christmas rush though. I guess a better way to say it is we have steady business, which no one can complain about these days.

The weather is starting to turn around here again which is very nice, I took a bike ride today out at Palmer Park it was pretty nice, I found a new are with some great downhill routes, of course riding back up to the car was terrible but the downhill was worth it.

Peeps are sugar covered in sugar how can anyone say they are gross?

10 Things

I have been feeling a certain responsibility to update since very few of us have been doing so lately.

So here's the rundown of what's going on in Colorado.

1. The mountains are still very cold, which dissapoints me because I really want to start camping soon. yes I could just tough it out but why freeze my ass off?

2. I talked with Lin the other day and it made me very happy to speak with her and find out that she is planning a visit on her way back to Michigan for the summer...This is very exciting to me and I can not wait.

3. It's suppose to snow again tonight like crazy....what happened to the 70 degree weather we had in Feb.?

4. I don't understand why I am using numbers for this list but I will continue to do so until I run out of things to tell you.

5. Chauncey (the leaderdog puppy we have) is getting pretty big, he is a fun guy, no so bright sometimes but very fun.

6. Kellie and I are planning a trip to the Texas Roadhouse for dinner tonight..mmm mmm

7. Work is ...well it's work, there are many days that I wish I could work outside again all day.

8. When I win the powerball I will have a job for each and everyone of you, but don't worry you will be well paid and appreciated.

9. Sometimes I wish I could just live in the mountains like "Into the Wild" style...without dying

10. When placed into warm milk, raisins re-plump into grapes. (try it)

Don't Judge Me By My Tights

As most of you know I have spent a good portion of my life as a dancer and this article that I just found describes it perfectly. Some days I wish that I would have taken my dance career to that next level.

Don't Judge Me By My Tights

Snow Snow and more Snow

Well last weekend the weather was 70-75 degrees and prompted me to take the top off of my jeep. This week a nightmare on the horizon. Starting tomorrow they are calling for "near blizzard conditions"

8"-14" is what they are saying. This doesn't bother me because I don't like snow or that I can't drive in it, what bothers me is that everyone is going to cancel the photo appointments they have made and I will sit at work with nothing to do.

My only hope is that they just close the mall...it's a small hope but a hope none the less.

And now for an unrelated pie graph.

Colorado Wheeling

This weekend I had the opportunity to get out and go off roading with a new friend of mine Justin while his wife and Kellie were out hiking with the dogs. Needless to say it was a blast and I need to buy myself an old beater jeep to build up really big and get out there, but until then I will just ride along.

Why us Coloradans are awesome.

This article says it all.

Cripple Creek Ice Festival

Weekend Plans

I decided that if I wrote about what I was doing this weekend it would incline me to actually take pictures and post them here.

So tonight we are going to a potluck dinner for a new friend, I made my mom's cheesy potato's I really hope they come out as well as they do at home.

Sunday is really what I am excited about! Kellie and I are going to drive over to Cripple Creek and check out the ice carving festival, I will hopefully take some pics while we are over there. I assume that when we go towards the mountains that way that there will actually be snow as we have not really had any here in the springs this winter yet. It should be a nice drive in the jeep should be fun.

Funny Old Man

A crusty old man walks into a bank and says to the teller at the window, "I want to open a damn checking account."

To which the astonished woman replies, I beg your pardon, sir; I must have misunderstood you. What did you say?"

"Listen up, damn it. I said I want to open a damn checking account right now!"

"I'm very sorry sir, but we do not tolerate that kind of language in this bank."

So saying, the teller leaves the window and goes over to the bank manager to tell him about her situation.

They both return and the manager asks the old geezer, "What seems to be the problem here?"

"There's no friggin’ problem, dammit!" the man says; "I just won $50 million bucks in the damn lottery and I want to open a damn checking account in this damn bank!"

"I see," says the manager, "and this bitch is giving you a hard time?
