Weekly Recap
So, haven't updated in a while. Was without internet for a few days at home. Comcast goes on the fritz when it rains, and well, that's been most of the week. Of course, they can't do anything, except schedule me for a dispatch in like a week and a half. They don't want to do anything except replace the cable modem anyway. Nevermind I've told them everytime I call that the cover is not on the stupid pedastal and that is probably why it goes on the fritz when it rains. Oh well, I get lots of service credits at least.
It's been one hell of a week at work. Week was packed with interviews, looking for candidates to add to the development staff, working with potential customers for the VOIP service, and generally being busy. Other than busy, work is going really well.
Since it is getting colder, in order to ride outside I've had to augment my cycling wardrobe. ( As an aside, is it bad that I've spent more money in the last 6 months on tri/cycling/swim clothes than on "normal" clothes? ). So today, the sun broke, and we hit a high of 45. What better way to test it all out than by going on a 40 mile ride! :) Started out a little bit chilly, but I warmed up after the first couple miles. Was sweating by the end, so it certainly did the job and kept me warm.
As I was riding along, a few other cyclists passed me going the other way. I was tucked in, cruising about 25mph ( a nice long straight slight downhill ). One of them called out "Go Lance!". I really can't figure out why. Anyway, here's my stylish new cycling clothes.
Tomorrow morning I'm off to Boston for 3 days for the VOIP tradeshow. Wheeee! :)

I never thought about the Lance connection. I figured, yellow == more likely to be seen by crazy soccer moms running late to pick up the 1.5 kids. It seriously didn't hit me until the comment today that, oh, yeah, I *am* wearing a yellow jersey. :)
