While I wasn't tagged...

reading everyone's responses inspired me to come out of the woodwork

Bike jersey's. I'm FINALLY working on the design for "you've been Chicked"
2. Which item from your closet are you wearing most often?
My favourite bike jersey from California
3. Last thing you bought for myself?
New shoes. Working 8 hours a day on environmentally friendly floors is painful. Read working on cemen
4. What’s for dinner?
takeout. Veggie Roti. I had a homework deadline pushed up.
5. Say something to the person who tagged you:
Nobody tagged me but I know most of you through training for IMC last year and can honestly say that I couldn't have done it without any of you.
6. What is one item you could not live without?
My bike
7. Vacation spots you must visit before you die?
cross-Canada Road trip. Bike sections of the Tour
8. What is your most immediate short term goal:
graduate. sleep in. have a weekend off
9. What are you reading right now?
Textbooks snooze
and I'm reading Obama's book Dreams of My Father.
10. What is the last movie you saw and enjoyed?
Veer
11. What’s your guilty pleasure?
Cold beer after a long hot ride. Bike ride!
12. What’s your favorite smell?
campfire. Especially on a man
13. Whats something you look forward to?
lazy days off
14. Favorite Quote?
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
15. What is your dream job?
I'm working at my dream job of the moment. But I would love to somehow figure how to be on the bike all day as a profession
16. Whats one thing you can't go a day with out doing?
Breathing
17. What do you have an addiction to?
I recently took up coffee. Which is weird that it took me 28 years to start.
18. What do you like most about your personality?
Smiling. So many people mention that you'll almost always find a smile on my face.
19. How many pairs of shoes (not just running) do you have??
here? Or in storage in Calgary? I'd guess 10 pairs here. three pairs of runners and I'm not allowed to run right now! Now that's crazy
20. Tell us one random thing about you.
My fingers are very long, pianist long but I can't play the piano
21. Why did you start your blog?
Years ago I started one 'cause I thought it was cool, then I had one for my always entertaining dating life, then I kept one for my bike trip to Austin which morphed into the one for Ironman which was shut down and now I"m here. And terrible about posting
22. If you had a do-over what would it be?
Maybe move out west sooner? I feel like i spent more time in Calgary then I should have but I clearly wasn't ready to move yet. So nothing. I think life will always present options and just as long as you're moving forward things are good.
