Getting in gear.

So today I got up on some of this:

I tooled downtown to the water and rode the Embarcadero out to the Aquatic Park next to Fort Mason, which for those of you who don't live here is just about two miles east from the GG bridge. The weather couldn't have been more perfect. It was an awesome ride, traffic wasn't too bad and my knees don't hurt (...so far...) I purposefully only rode as far as I thought I could go and get back comfortably and I also intentionally kept it flat. Today was about going a greater distance. Imagine my delight when I tracked/measured my route and saw that I had ridden 10 miles! To date my longest ride had only been 2 miles... so 10 is a great improvement given that I'm not supposed be hitting 10-15 miles per week over the span of 2-3 rides by mid-October. I'm STOKED!

And now I'm jonesing for these:

Well maybe not this specific type (there are many...who knew?) but I am definitely going shopping tomorrow for clipless pedals and shoes and cleats. WOO HOO!

But first I'm hitting the Labor Day weekend sale at Bloomies and then seeing the Nanny Diaries.

All of this brought to you by the much-welcomed final end to the softball season and a give-back of my weekends.

Peace out and Happy Labor Day, bitches.
LOVES IT.

Happy 4th, Bitches

Fun at Pacifica - just off Highway 1, about 20 minutes south of San Fran... We drank beer on the beach and watched the sun set. Simple. Fun.

I dunno what's up with him. What I DO know: He's nice. He's fun. He's goofy. He's cute. We'll see... :)

luxury

is this shower. two sides and an overhead rain head:


not sure if the water reads in the photo - but here it is in action:


I think showering with an open door and seeing the gorgeous CA sun-filled sky has me beginning to understand outdoors nudism...

more palm springs

here's some more pictures I took today while out and about...



It's so gorge here...

1970 in more ways than one

Yeah - I can't even begin to describe how many kinds of ridiculous this house is. I am thinking it's missing some trays of party drugs and some naked pool boys running around. Oh wait, I'm sure there must have been at some point in the 70's.

LOVES IT.

up in the desert y'all

Palm Springs Weekend, y'all. Four days of relaxation by the pool reading Star Magazine and listening to my iPod. But I'm missing a scrimmage practice with another D-div softball team. I'm super bummed about that. AND I'm missing a big fat tattoo expo at the Kitty Palace in South San Fran.

But it will be more fun to hang out w/ my fams in PSP... aka Play Station Portable.

sunny sunday

sorry for those experiencing less-than-optimal weather. but the weather here today FUCKING RULES. Here's some shots from my roof and around my building. enjoy, bitches.










And for those who know me pretty well, you'll know this is uncommon for me, but these last few where the picture reads with the rays of sunshine? That's some higher-power shit for me. It's beautiful. SF is crazy beautiful. I'd even go so far to say a little more beautiful for having me in it. ;)
