June!

I find it odd that people, myself included, never seem to have an accurate sense of time. I mean time either flies by or it crawls. You never hear anyone saying that the week is going by at the right speed... but really that isn't all that important, just an aside.

Either way we are in June. A month which should be a good one, albeit a busy one. Lu and I already seem to have tons of plans. Some of them our own creation, like painting the office and others because of weddings and other types of obligations.

Two things I hope to accomplish this month, that go somewhat hand in hand is, ride my bike to work more than I drive my car to work and to lose some weight. I have made the bike ride to work once now, and ever since either, lunch plans/leaving early to get out of town and or mother nature have foiled my plans to ride into work. i will hopefully keep you guys better posted as the month goes on with my success/failure in those departments. Still trying to figure out how I can bring lunch to work each day and still have a comfortable ride in. Backpacks are very very hot. and i don't want it to be that heavy so we shall see.

Also in June is the beginning of the best sporting event in the world. The 2010 FIFA World Cup. I can't wait till we kick off the month long slate of soccer games. And the US stands a good chance to perform the best that they ever have on the world stage.

Should be a good month. I am sure we will have pictures to post soon.

Brian, you can get attachments for your bike to put stuff on (either over the back wheel or on your cross bar). Just look at REI or Dick's or wherever, they should have them. If not, a bike specialty store would. I wish I could ride my bike to work, but there are no real biker-friendly routes.

thanks for the suggestions carol, i have some other thoughts too, trying to work out what will cost the least amount and still make the most sense...
