Is this fair

Weds - I decided to ride into work today. It's really hard getting up at 5 to ride your bike to work. Biking is fun. Highlight of my day. Biking in to work. Work. Biking home. But isn't the middle always suppose to be the good part? Oreos. Cheese and crackers. Anyways... It was a nice morning. Around 12 degrees out. Ride was quicker then I planned. Made it in less then an hour. Ride home felt like I had two flat tires. But I think it's the rider with a couple of extra pounds is to blame.

Thurs - I'm sitting at the VW dealership getting the first oil change of the cars life. If you make an appointment for 10am. Wouldn't you think they would take the car at 10am? It's now 1045am and the car just drove into the service bay. Customer service in bigger cities is going down the crapper. I bought the car from you. I went out of my way to come back for service. It's no where near my house. Im sure in spending $100 bucks or more today. I'm scratching your back. Scratch mine a bit!

Enough with being a negative Nancy.

Emilie is gone to a girls day in Fernie for some down hill bicycling. I'm a little jealous. I'm sitting at the dealership. Going back home to fix my Mac. ( the OS won't boot up ). I might loose all my pics and everything. Once I get that fixed. Math home work!

I'm out.

V-dub

Well.... Émilie is gone for a week in Spain with her sister and I have the whole house to myself. Amazing how bored I am without her around. I miss her a lot and its only the 3rd day. Went to the dentist today for some work. Went great. I didn't eat the inside of my cheeks because of the freezing!

I thought since I haven't wrote anything on my new car that a post should be made. I got the car back in March and been loving it ever since! I went into the dealership to look at the new golf and walked out with a 2010 Golf Wagon 2.5. After a few days of signing the dotted line I picked the car up. Went over all the boring stuff like how to turn the radio volume up and down. I drove it off the lot. Straight to the VW tuner shop where I got 19' wheels. Being 27 and no kids. I had to spice the car up a bit. :) I have done many road trips to Golden B.C. and few times to market. I love the car and couldn't be happier with my pick of the litter.

Thanks VW for making a great car!

A new Chapter...

I know it's been a long time since the last post. I've been very busy with work and weekend trips to the mountains. Émilie and I have been going to the rockies for lots of hiking, biking and camping. Canada day Ém and I went to Kicking Horse Mountain Resort in Golden B.C. for some downhill action! It was Ém's first time!!! I think if you look past the 6 hours of screaming and a few bruises. I think she had a great time!!!

More into this new chapter. After many months of thinking about my future. I've decided to go back to school. I'm still in the beginning stage of the process. I'm currently upgrading a few classes. Hoping for a Jan start date for Mechanical Engineering at SAIT here in Calgary. I just received my HUGE math book in the mail Friday. Fingers crossed it all comes back fast! It's been 10 years!!!!

O yeah, If you haven't picked up Phoenix's new albume Wolfgang Amadeus. DO IT!!! The whole album is great.

Till next time.
