phantom ring

I haven't worn any rings for a while now, but apparently my left middle finger is convinced that it has a ring on it. Such a weird feeling.

Sunday was a great great summer day. I met up with Sarah and Joel and the niece in Windsor for breakfast at The Egg & I, then biked about 70 minutes on the Poudre Corridor Trail, picked up some hardware for the new coat rack project, read some Harry Potter 6 and ate curried chicken sandwich in Old Town, and finally picked up a coffee on the way out of town for a beautiful rainy drive back to Laramie. I wish today were equally as fun, but at least I'm getting some work done on the syllabus redesign project. Ugh.

Also in Old Town, I picked up a Ft Collins trail map, so that next time I can be a bit more strategic in picking a route. This trip led me to the dead end on the west side of Windsor, which wasn't that big a deal but still it would be nice to know where I'm goin'. The map was free and makes me want to spend more time checking out the trails around FtC.

It's sort of exciting (and relatively rare) for me to find three different frames that I like. Now the hard part is narrowing it down to one. After having asked a couple of the staff at the eye doctor's, my roommate, and Stephanie, an early leader is emerging. But I'm open to other feedback..... Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Comments?

citizens arrest

What are the rules for citizens arrest? Specifically, if there's a girl talking on her cell phone, with half her car windows frosted over, who doesn't wait her turn at the four-way, would I get in trouble if I pulled her out of her car and slapped her with her phone a couple of times? I suppose that doesn't quite count as citizens arrest. Vigilante justice, maybe. Whack, whack! In less aggravating news, tomorrow is the last day of classes for the semester. Finally. It's been a long time comin' this fall. I really should start thinking about the trip to WV and AZ and start planning some Christmas gifty-gifts.

So I'm now going to post a bit about the DEMOLITION DERBY, which actually happened the weekend before my trip out here to CA. Backing up even further: in the few days leading up to the DEMOLITION DERBY, it rained pretty heavily, even producing a bit of flooding. This was bad news for the derby: the cars had a tough, tough time getting much traction in 10 inches of mud. The result: a not very demolishing derby. Slo-mo derby. Cars that were disqualified not because they were intentionally trying to stay out of the action but because they were axle-deep in mud and couldn't make a hit. Lame-oh: nowhere near the fun of DEMOLITION DERBY 2005. I had promised several people that DERBY '07 would be barrels of fun. Instead, we left early. Here's a pic that Kaijsa took of the contestants, though: Annalee said she didn't make it to the derby because of the big rains in the days leading up to the derby. The current of run-off was strong enough, as she was driving home, to rip of
