Pop Pop Pop
I am really into pop music right now. Especially Madonna's Four Minutes, Justin Timberlake's Sexyback, and Kanye West's Stronger.
Is it just me or is there good music out right now? Oh, I forgot Rihanna's Please Don't Stop the Music too. All awesome workout songs! -

An Engineer's Guide to Cats
Entertaining. Lots of dry humor. And of course, it's about cats. I especially love the geeked out ninja calculators bit in the beginning.

Vegas
My racing situation is unique, for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, I'm fortunate enough to be able to race in a place as far away from me as Vegas because my boyfriend is a successful racer with his own mechanics; mechanics who have a large trailer and are happy to take my bike with them to James' races.

Unathleticism
I am probably the most unathletic athlete around. I have confidence, passion and discipline, and a knack for activities that require coordination like darts, skiing, tennis, and motorcycling, but when it comes down to raw athleticism I come up shorter than short shorts on an oompa loompa (wow, mega dumb analogy ( Read more... ) -
Random Riding Observations
There's a rider I see in the results of races and practices who rides at a somewhat leisurely pace, and his name has stuck out in my mind, so sometimes when I see results I check his laptimes and compare mine to them. Dean rides a 600, a much more powerful bike than mine, but at Fontana I was a second slower than him on average. Compare that to ( Read more... ) -
RIP Ripped Jeans
My favorite pair of jeans happen to be my oldest, too. Shocking but true. A pair of Paper Denim & Cloth from 2003, they were the perfect length for flats and soft as velvet. Notice how I'm speaking in the past tense now? I put them on this morning and felt a cool breeze under my right butt cheek; positioning myself with my back to the mirror ( Read more... )
