Where Did Time Go?

Not that life hasn't been kind of interesting lately; but I'm just getting down right lazy. I believe its the schedule adjustment period. I'm finally done with the flip flop schedule and still getting into the routine of life. Excuses don't make up for the fact that I haven't updated in a month but it makes me feel better.

Work has been uninteresting the past few weeks. I don't go to all the cool calls anymore because I don't absolutely have to. We caught a couple of punk kids stealing from a second hand store. They took two pair of these god awful, ugly Nike shoes. I don't think the trip to county was worth the crap shoes. Then they had the gall to tell us when we found the weed in their car that most cops just toss it out and give us a warning. Honestly?? Your getting arrested and you say something stupid like that. Don't drive around with drugs in your car!!! Don't smoke drugs in your car!!! You won't get caught at home. Stupid people.

I had a good time last weekend hitting up the crapy casino in Louisiana. As much as they try they will never succeed. The experience will never mount up to Vegas. Don't think I'll go back just for the gambling again. Next time long weekend in New Orleans at Harrahs...at least when the gambling gets boring you've got Bourbon Street.

I'm looking forward to October in all reality. Second trip to Austin City Limits. The line up is better this year. As expensive as it is; I still think its totally worth it. Everyone cross your fingers for cooler weather that weekend. We almost died last year. I'll let you know how it goes bro.

I've been spending more time working out the past week than I have all summer. Got some goals that I think are perfectly attainable. As much as I've wanted to do this since I got into cycling the MS 150 is not gonna happen this year. I need a road bike and can't justify to myself to spend the money on one. I can't imagine doing 150 miles in two days on my heavy freakin mountain bike. Its bad enough trying to go like 30 miles on that thing. I thought one Christmas and Birthday gift but still don't think I'm going to get what I really want. Don't have enough time to train either. I thought I was in better shape than I am. The 45 mile bike event in February was a good indicator then, but 6 months of lazy beer drinking did not end well. I'm in the worst shape of my life. I can't remember a time when I couldn't run 3 miles straight without stopping. I can't even pretend to myself that I'm in shape anymore. So the next year has to be dedicated to getting back in shape. Then maybe the 2011 MS 150 or the Houston Marathon will be in my sites.
