Last night went to see a play called "Garden" in a downstairs theater called Theater 2. The play "House" was playing in the upstairs theater called Theater 3. The plays written by Sir Alan Ayckbourn the English playwright. What made the plays interesting was that both had the same people (artists and characters) and the actors/actresses were running up and down stairs as their parts required. Curtain call was one at a time as they ran from theater to theater. See "House" next Thursday. Funny comedy and I wish Br Cassian (Dee) would have been there as they was a French lady that spoke only French (funny how that works) throughout the play with very little translation other that body gestures/language.

I don't know if I told y'all that I saw a play "I Love You, Your Perfect, Now change" earlier this year 4 times and now have a total of "lost count" but over 15 and it plays in the Theater 2 space (50-100 seats) and guess what it is coming back again in 2009.

Thought I would post a couple of new pictures of me. Aren't I cute. Your have to get past me if you want upstairs. That paperwork is really tiring and I needed a nap and just did not have enough energy to turn over.

Well I woke up refreshed from the Saturday ride. No riding on Sunday as I went to Van TX and helped a friend get ready for a garage sale this weekend. Did ride on Monday (99 temp) after work about 20 miles. Nice tune up ride. The silly cat and I went to her retreat on Sunday also. This retreat takes care of her when I leave for a couple of days for whatever reason. The retreat is approx 3 acres with ducks, rabbits, and birds in the yard and she watches from the windows. They also have 2 parrot type birds that fascinate her.

Work has been semi busy with lots of different help as we "lost" 5 technicians to the local police last Tuesday. Not much being said about the charges but I'm sure drugs are involved and futures and licenses are on the line.

Now for the new toy. It talks to you in the car and tells you where to go!!! I like setting a destination and then going a different way and making her say "recalculating" and then continue on my way. Now you all can guess in is a Garmin GPS which is just a toy because if I do not know my way around Dallas after 33 years (yes it is has been than long) or by using a map I should not be driving. Funny thing tho is that if you watch the screen it does not show the traffic in front of you - just the road - so one might run into the back of the person in front of you.

The AC/Food supplier is here on the floor with a cool IV of Normal Saline running into his veins. He turned on the computer and that was about all he could do. In his feeble breath he mentioned that the temperature was 96 at 2pm and he just finished a 65mi bike ride and fell back asleep. When he wakes up (if he does) I'll make him post something else

Just a quick note while the computer is on. The AC,Food supplier bought a new toy over the weekend. I worry about him. His last toy was in 1975 and it was the Miata. This toy talks to him. Whoops he's back. Maybe he'll tell you about his new toy

No pictures this week and probably not many in the future (do not want to show up the Carmel blogger). Rode about 40 mi on Saturday and 30 today. Just around the city with approximately 35 riders. It was 102 yesterday and has been over 95 for the last 11 days (I think that is what the weather man said) At least my brain does not freeze as in other parts of the country. Fried brains taste wonderful but dehydration is fun as you can sit on the side of the road and wait for someone to come get you in an AC car. Off to "work" in the morning and waiting for the STARS schedule to be posted this Thursday.

That silly cat used her password and created that last post. I think I will have to turn off the computer when I'm gone. But the weekend of the 4th we rode 64 miles on Friday, 30+ on Saturday and approx 40 on sunday. I have taken the last 3 days off to recover. It is in the 95+ during the rides and lots of H2O is consumed. Working only 38 hrs per week now, 30 and SenioRxMed and 8 at the VA having taken Fridays off again. Am looking to start taking Wednesdays off again and just work for SenioRxMed. Hopefully I and the Dust Bunny can at least post as much as the Carmel bunch and I know a lot more that the Indianapolis bunch.

The GDB had a party we call the Summer Bash and I was chosen to judge the desserts. Here are the 3 judges and chocolate won. We had ridden 30 miles so dessert was in order
