Mowing

Well, where do I start. My aunt broke her arm two weeks ago when she fell of the deck. The doctor said she "dusted it" which means there's nothing to put back in the joint. Well, she had a surgery and now I'm mowing their lawn. I don't mind - they live 22 miles away so it makes for a good bike ride. Except for the second time I went over there I decided to take a longer way there (of about 50 miles). I didn't take into account that the gravel roads get much looser and harder to ride on when it hasn't been rainy. Actually I just didn't know that (I'm not a very good country boy). Anyways, I got there and was completely wiped out. I need to do some more training though before Saturday which is a 100 miler at Okoboji.

I forgot to feed my cat last night. I have a habit of feeding him before bed so that he will let me sleep at night. It used to be that he would follow me around for a couple of hours before bedtime reminding me that I need to feed him. Well he hasn't been doing that lately. He woke me up a couple of times in the night including once when he bit me on the knuckle. For some reason it didn't register to me that he needed food until morning.

I went to GNC last week and got a "greens super food" powdered drink. It's a bit spendy but I would recommend it. I feel like my energy has been up.

Sunday I went "geocaching" for the first time here around Sioux Center. If you don't know what that is, it's basically like a scavenger hunt using your GPS. When you find the hidden item, you either just sign your name in a rolled up piece of paper inside of something like a pill box or you can trade items if the canister is larger. It is fun, but it should be done with two people so that you look slightly less suspicious. I'm sure it's way better in the woods as most of the spots here were near other people (at a park or next to a road). I don't need anyone calling the cops on me about "suspicious behavior."

Vice

So I watched Miami Vice on my computer yesterday. ALSO has the a scene with the Iguazu Falls in it. Crazy.

Nothing else to terribly exciting around here except that we have a new toy for Mosey in the house. I must say, it's pretty fun watching an obese cat chase around the dot from a laser pointer.
