Friday…

Today was going pretty well…I had a productive morning, had a good lunch at the Flat Top Grill with Dave and some CITES Networking people.  I’d never been there, but I’ll definitely be back.  The food is excellent, the prices are reasonable, and children under 4 eat for free…It’s a much better deal that the…

A step into the future

So, I last posted that I was having a really busy Saturday… As I was sitting down at the demo derby with Matt, I got a call from my friends Josh and Kelly.  They were going out to the street fest (or whatever it was actually called) in Champaign and invited me along.  After the…

An abnormality

My bike

For the past three weeks, I’ve been meaning to get my bicycle down from the hooks in the garage and inspect it to see what condition it is in.  I finally got it down tonight, aired up the tires, washed it off, degreased/lubed the chain, checked the brakes, and took it for a spin to…

Active day…

Last weekend, I took Daniel over to play with Ashlyn at Josh and Kelly’s house.  They had a lot of fun.  While we were there, Josh told me that they had gone to Sholem Aquatic Center the weekend before and Ashlyn loved it, so we made plans to go today.  My parents decided to come…
