renewingable...



well... trying to update on the happings here in kc... hmmmm...
three works i suppose
work
working out
well... not entirely true, but that is what it feels like someitmes. i can't wait for the tour de france to be over, which will free up my nights. i have been a fan and watched it for about the past 10 years now. which brings me to one of the items on my 'checklist'... cycling.
it would be nice to get a starter road bike one of these days in attempts to begin training for some triathlons and such. when i moved here to kc, i checked out what they had available as far as the triathlon scene goes... and behold, they have, not only triathlons, but biathlons as well [sweet!]. this is exciting for me since i swim almost as well as a chicken towing an anvil... almost. nevertheless, my aquatic deficiencies aside, i think it would be a good sporting venue to get involved with. i suppose that i would then have to get my running mileage up as well as getting a bike and such. but, i have said in the past that once i hit 30ish [3.25 yrs away] i would probably do more endurance exercise than the ballistic things i do these days. i guess that the reason i still do those ballistic track-type exercises is because i am still seeing improvements in my speed, jumping ability, weight training... and so on.
anywho... thank you tour de france for giving me the anual motivation to sit my kiester on a narrow, barely-padded seat, hardly larger that the space between my cheeks... and sit upon that for mile after grueling mile in shorts that hug the lines of my upper legs as tightly as michael moore embraces big macs.
anywho... as far as that enduro-pursuit goes, i got my mileage up about a month ago, but have since lifted every day for the past 3 weeks or so. i hate that... i can't see to decide. it is like i wind up half-assing lifting and running because i desire to do both so bad, but don't have time to adequately pursue both.
anywho... my workout frustrations aside... and i am left to my 'list'.
i have also spent a little bit of time lately practicing on my unicycle... i say 'on'... but i most assuredly have spent most of my 'practice time' off of the darn thing. go figure....
let's see... what else on the 'list' have i been invlving myself with lately.
i have been practicing writing with my left hand... for some reason i desire to be able to write fluently with my left hand to the point that it would be almost indistinguishable from my right... i give myself a few years for this task as i am in no rush and it is almost a foolish pursuit of sorts anyhow.
what else... hmmmm...
there is so much... i think i just need to write this list down... but that would actually make me accountalbe for it... ahhhhh.
well... as far as other things going on... this past weekend/early this week i let my match-buddy james crash at my place while he was closing on his house. it looks like a hell of a starter house if you ask me... completely awesome.... more like a mansion really. congrats james... congrats...
and james and myself have been playing a good bit of basketball as well. the one on one has been challenging, but unfortunately for us, there seems to be a lack of interest in basketball or something at the fitness center as hardly anyone plays and we can't really find anyone for 2 on 2 even. i guess we'll just have to keep on keepin on with the mano y mano... but his jump shot is killer and i don't know if i can take much more! haha

so, anywho... i suppose this wasn't much of an update... i have stories... plenty of stories thus far, but i suppose i will either save stuff for a later date or tell anyone else who decides they want to know on a more individualistic bases.

anywho... have a wonderful splendidness,
love to all,
g
