I had another tubing adventure. This time we didn't bush-whack through waist-deep poison ivy, so that is good. My sister and I went tubing on the Saco River with me on my snow tube and her on the air mattress. All was going well until some storm clouds began to move in. We didn't think anything of it until it began thundering. Great. The ( Read more... )

So I thought it would be a nice idea to go running on the trails where Mel and I work. They are in the White Mountain National Forest so it's really pretty and naturesque. I ran about 2 miles out when dusk started to occur. That is when the attack of the mosquitos began. Every time I slowed down to a jog, I was swarmed with mosquitos. They ( Read more... )

Today my day started at 6:30 AM when the construction crew downstairs began to put the frame of the new apartments up. Of course they couldn't start that AFTER 6:30 in the morning! This included the use of an electric saw, nail gun, and a drill. A very loud drill. It continued until around 7:30 after I call the landlord to complain. What a great ( Read more... )

Ugggh, why am I so stupid? So I went for a bike ride today. Of course I wanted to get a good workout so I did the same 40ish mile loop that some psycho ladies took me on last weekend.

"We don't normally keep radiators for that old of car in stock, but it was sitting in the back." Yes, make be more proud of my dying breed Volvo. So I bought the ( Read more... )

Ugghh, so basically my car sucks! Today when I was picking Mel up from work my car overheated. I had to drive up a HUGH hill to get to the fitness center where she works. It started smoking at the bottom but it made it up all the way. After the car had a chance to cool off I discovered that there was NO liquid in the radiator fluid storage tank ( Read more... )

Aaahh, you are all sickos! So I thought I'd try this LiveJournal thingy. Apparently it is all the rage. As you might have read in Mel's LiveJournal, there was a moose on the resort that we work at. What she didn't tell you was that she observed it SAFELY from the top of a hill inside a fenced-in area. Unfortunatly for me, I was walking towards ( Read more... )
