One Down, Five to go!

Four days of 45 minutes of bonus torture time, five to go. Also five weeks to go for the end to come. Can't come soon enough.

Weather has been nice past two days, so biking. Pleasant to ride in the near daylight, but I really wish I had a button to burn out the engine of idiots who don't put on their headlights. Law says 30 minutes after dawn, 30 minutes prior to sunset. These cars are hard to see without lights, but I am still extremely careful.

Still futzing around with the new phone. Going to have to go the old-fashioned route and put the SIM card back in the old phone, copy all the numbers by hand, then enter them into the new phone. Then the fun of assigning pictures (if I choose) to numbers, and ringtones, and groups (such as family, school, etc.). Then figuring out how to text (not that I want to do it, mind you). I suppose at one stage of my life this would have been fun, now it just seems like a chore.

Today I got my storm gear from England. The pants are great, two ply Goretex with lots of velcro, plus zips from calf to ankle, drawstring waist...dark blue color (Royal Navy issue). The jacket is the real prize. High neck, full velcro front over zipper, velcro wrist cinch. All done up, I am covered from chin to knees...and there is a zip-out liner so I can adjust for temperature. This might be the only coat I will ever need.

Hmmm....do I want to go to our school's TCAP Pep Rally tomorrow from 10am to noon? Probably not.
