Hi

I know, it's been way too long but for good reason.....I ran out of gas. I, I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts.....sorry had to throw in a Blues Brothers quote there.

What's new you ask? Not much. I tried going to the Y after work 2 days this week. It's not as enjoyable as when I go in the morning. At one point I counted 12 people by the weights...12 !!! I'm used to 2. So it was a bit cramped to say the least but I got through my workouts anyhow.

Only 16 more days until I head up north to jump into the frozen waters of Lake Huron. This will be my 7th year of jumping now. I'm gonna be honest, it doesn't get any warmer. It takes your breath away every single time. It kind of feels like the inside of your chest stops working for a bit, but then it comes right back and you get out of the water and you can just stand around because the air feels so warm once you get out. I don't recommend standing around for too long though because there is a pool/hot tub/sauna waiting in the hotel that we put to use every year.

Well that's all I've got for now. Man, if my blogs keep being this boring I'm going to be sent back the minors.
