I am so stoked. I got invited to ride in a show at the end of June next year, and I can compete if I want to. Needless to say I have a crap ton of practice I need to do!

Here on the 'X' mostly
Ever since my wife told me she was leaving I decided I needed to start building a bench, so to speak. At the gym I typically stick to the "no socializing because I'm trying to get swole" rule. There's a newbie to the gym that is a pretty young thing with a very fine posterior who I've been hoping to approach eventually, but considering I am probably 25 yrs older than her(for the record that would make her around 25-28), I didn't want to seem like a creeper, but I have noticed how she looks at me and will flash a great smile when we make eye contact. Anyhow, this morning I hit the arc climber first to warm up, since it's leg day. I am on the very first arc climber out of the 8 they have there. In front of each arc climber is a treadmill.

I'm only about 5 minutes into it and I notice the aforementioned cutie walk in. She goes to the very last treadmill...boo!! She starts stretching out before climbing on the treadmill and turns her head my way. I gave her a little good morning nod of the head trying to be cool but in my mind I am thinking "great, now she knows I've been gawking at her since she walked in". She then grabs her water bottle off the treadmill and walks right over to me and introduces herself to me and we have a brief conversation about the holidays and the gross weather we've been having, and she asks if I'd mind if she used the treadmill directly in front of me, since she liked that machine the best. (Although they are all the exact same machines, purchased and installed at the same time). I of course told her that was no problem at all.

So I had something much more enjoyable to watch than the News while I was warming up. Only problem is that my 10 minute warm up before leg day turned into a 45 minute session on the arc climber. ;)

That is the same thing that kept me going when I split with my ex. I started hitting the gym after work and found a very attractive girl did he same. I eventually found out she was married with a kid but I convinced myself she was unhappy and soon to be single...

It started right up! Can't wait to dial it in on the water

This happened last night, but still applies. Lately I've been collecting parts to put back together my square for my dad, and a few odds and ends for our kawi 550 that my parents have been learning to ride on.
Last night my mom brought up how she likes the kawi but it looks too beat up to be seen in public.... I told her it's not worth putting any money into body work and a paint job. And she tells me "I don't care how much it costs , I want it to be bright pink and looking good, with better padding so I don't hurt my shins"

Immediately after, my dad(who does not like wasting money) goes "Brian(guy my dad learned bodywork and paint from) is gonna flip when I tell him I need the brightest neon pink he can find. I'm going to dig out all my old paint gear and setup a paint booth in our warehouse and we're gonna do this"

I was literally in shock and super stoked that they actually want to ride. They're early 50s and just starting to ride.

To be honest, I think I might be more excited to build up these stock skis and be able to see my parents riding than I am to dump a few grand into my rip for a designated freestyle ski...

Well after my first contractor flaked out on me, i finally heard back from the guy i originally wanted to build my house. Hes a friend of mines dad, who i have known for years and his work is amazing. The last contractor was trying to make us downgrade a lot of the stuff in the house that makes the plan unique. Now we will be able to keep a lot of the things we thought we would have e to lose as well as getting a few more we hadnt thought we could do.

Woke up at 6am to drive one of my local jetski buddies to the airport, and stopped at Home Depot on the way home to pick up a broom and a couple other things and I always go check out the clearance section. So todays score was a Moen Vale Faucet for my bathroom. Retail $115, was on clearance for $49, and rang up at $25....superjew strikes again! Early bird gets the worm?

Bro, my faucet game is very strong these days. House remodeling is much more fun than jetskis at this point in my life.

And its nice to have hookups too...my buddy works for Pfister faucets so I got a Pfister Indira kitchen faucet for $free.99.....and that thing is freakin' sweet!

Come at me bro! I got faucets on faucets on faucets.
