		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about my complete lack of genuine "free" time.

I'm not going to say that I don't have an adequate amount of time away from work. I work a 40 hour week, like most people in my tax bracket, and on top of that, I actually eat lunch on the clock so I can maximize my time and go home an hour early. I'm probably coming out ahead of a lot of people, and yet I still feel like I'm fighting for time every day, every week.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about how serious I'm obviously getting about this cycling stuff.

So today is a gorgeous autumn Friday. It is currently slightly overcast and a nice, cool 70. I rode my bike in this morning and as I sit here at my desk, can only think of how much I'd rather be out riding it some more. I usually fantasize about being home on the couch, or just being outside strolling around on campus. Today, however, more than anything else, I'd rather be zooming around town, either back home or just out and about. I'm thinking that before too long, I will have to think twice about whether I really want to take the car or not. More than likely, the decision will come down to what I have to carry with me to wherever I'm going.]]></description>

I'd much rather be outside going to get a YooHoo or even a chocolate coke at Sonic, but instead I have to sit here in the office and hold the door open (not literally) for this guy who is doing some installs in our server room.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about myself as non-motorized traffic.

I love riding my bike to and from work. I really love it. I can't say that I've regretted it even once. Not on any hill that's tough to climb, not on any of these cold mornings, not once while sitting in my office dripping sweat as I cool down from my ride in. In fact, just having my bike on campus to run errands and travel between buildings is simply perfect. It now takes me half the time to get from one building to another to go and fix computers (now if all the buildings we have computers in had bike racks, things would be even better).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about my bike being fixed and how awesome it is now.

I'm going to start with the short version of what happened to my bike to get where I am today.

Two weeks ago, on August 9th I believe, I took my bike to The Bicycle Path to get it tuned up. It was going to get a simple adjustment of brakes and shifters, a lube, and a wipe down. I also wanted to get my grips replaced, and was willing to pay extra for that. I was supposed to pick it up on the 11th, all ready to ride.]]></description>

Holy shit, where did the last two weeks go? Its been a mad house up in here and I've not only lost complete track of time, but pretty much any semblance of order and reason as well. I can't even effectively recall everything thats been going on the last two weeks, but I guess]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about all the things I accomplished this weekend.

So I don't really have a "honey-do" list, mostly because Heather's not the kind of person to burden me with assigned tasks like that, though sometimes I think it would be easier if she did. Either way, I did a lot of things around the house over the last week and through this weekend specifically to the benefit of my lovely wife. I felt bad about wasting so much of my home-time with just sitting around watching TV and playing games that I wanted to get some real tasks taken care of.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[...in which I talk about the loss of time

So this weekend, like most, flew by almost imperceptibly. I know I did something this weekend, but nothing that would be considered a responsible thing. I had wanted to do things like change out heather's license plates, put up a clothesline, fix the toilet. You know, grown up, homeowner, husband, father type things.]]></description>
