Sunday

Vikings got beat down last night. Twas a shame. I wanted to witness at good game. Not a blowout. We stopped watching the game after the 3rd quarter and preceded to watch the Tour de Ski races instead. I also played Adam in cribbage and whipped him up.

Today will be a nice casual day. I am going to go see The Hobbit. It should be a good time. I also plan on getting in a run later this evening. I have spent the morning putting away clothes and attempting to clean the basement. Tackling my room is another story. I have too much junk and too little space to put it. Not to mention my over flowing array of running/cycling/skiing clothes.

I biked to and from work yesterday. Took about 1 hr and 25 min to get there. My toes started to get a little chilly with about 10 min left in the ride. I am attempting to locate some winter cycling boots. That or I shall use a different pair of socks and see how those work. I love my smartwool socks and base layers. They are incredibly nice. My goal for January is to put in a 100 mile ride. It will be an all day affair to say the least.

On another high note I am about 1 week away from getting a new (to me) car! I talked to my bank and they basically told me that once I find the car I can go back and get the cash money from them. I am looking at cars in the $5,000 range that get around 30mpg and have less than 90k miles. This week I will go to different dealers and take a few test drives. If all goes well I should have a car by the end of next week or so!

City of Lakes Loppet is coming up in a month. I need to ski more. We need more snow too.
Maybe I plant more ice cubes???
