My LOVER did me WRONG!**

Hi BLOG!


Atmospheric Conditions brought to you by TANK GIRL: SUNNY, CLOUDY, HOT and HUMID!


Exchange Rate: We have lost some change, 1 Euro = $1.46 :(


My first ROAD BIKE ADVENTURE:
Weight: 145
Diet: High Protein lots of discipline


When you are a road biker, you have to embrace the cheesiness of it all and wear the padded shorts.


Outside and Inside View:










Now that I have done some riding, I have been thankful for the padding!






I would usually say that SPANDEX is a privilege, not a right, but....this type of spandex is kindive like SPANX, it holds everything in and slims you down!




LEGS knows fashion: The combination of SPANDEX and CROCS- be looking for it in the next issue of VOGUE-!




LEGS and I set out for a short ride, so that I could get acquainted with my NEW LOVER.  So we were riding along and this is the conversation:


LEGS:' Are you doing okay?'
ARMS:'Um...yeah, I'm okay...I think.'
LEGS:' What's wrong?'
ARMS:'Um.....the seat is kindive hurting me...'
LEGS:' Its fine...its going to be uncomfortable...'
ARMS:'Okay...' So we were riding along some more...
LEGS:' Are you okay?'
ARMS:'Um.....yeah...well, no, the seat is really up there...'
LEGS:'Its fine, Its fine, it supposed to be like that...'
ARMS:'Okay...' In my mind: This is crazy! I can't believe people go through this! We kept riding some more....
LEGS:'How are you doing? Are you doing okay?'
ARMS:'Um....I don't know....the seat is really in some places that I would never want anything to be there...its pretty uncomfortable.'
LEGS:'Okay....lets stop.'


So we stopped and when I got off the seat it was tilted so far upwards no wonder I was uncomfortable!  I had to ride back to the house standing up.  MY LOVER DID ME WRONG!






First road bike adventure conclusion: My LOVER did me wrong!, Shifting is complicated, we moved very fast, and as in all new relationships it was exciting but awkward....






Second Road Bike Adventure: LEGS, ARMS and The HEF go to ROTHENBERG


31 Miles to Rothenberg and Back!






Road Biking is so much fun, I am already a junky!  Road Biking in a nutshell: Travel long distances, very fast without much effort.  






I had my first crash even though my feet haven't been clipped in.  LEGS was trying to get something out of my jersey pocket (on the back of my shirt) we were doing good, until he rammed right into me and we went into the ditch.....






It was a perfect first crash, we landed in tall grass, so it was soft, I did scream on the way down, but we laid in the grass laughing.....






There is nobody else in this world that I would rather crash with....




LEGS crashed in the driveway once we got home, here is a the picture of the wounds and moment of shame:






Random Thoughts & Stories:


This story will probably only be funny if you know who I am talking about, but perhaps I can give enough detail that it will be enjoyed for all!


The other night LEGS and I had to attend a Hail and Farewell event.  We sat down with our other WHISKEY company counterparts, and The Hef happened to sit across from us.  After dinner was served, people who worked at the restaurant started cleaning up and collecting plates and glasses.  One such worker, was a rather awkward man.  He was short and bald, he had a big pot belly and some serious junk in the trunk.  Understandably....he was also sweating profusely, as it was hot and he was working pretty hard.  The tables were all lined up so close together that when exiting or entering your chair, it took some serious finesse, grace and being slim helped.  The awkward man, needed to gather some dishes toward the back of the table, so he proceeded to squeeze through. The funny part was The Hef was sitting in one of those chairs, so we all sat in horror as the awkward man's pot belly literally raped the back of his head, and on the way out, the awkward man's large bottom, again, raped the back of The Hef's head.  It was like the awkward man's body parts conformed to the shape of Hef's head as he was passing through.....


ARMS' Mailbox:


Dear ARMS,


was thinking about you today.... glorious weather here, hiked the ridge along turnagain arm yesterday for about 7 miles and enjoyed the views as well as the outdoors. today is all about the garden, steve has to work and i will do dirt therapy.
so glad that you had an oportunity for your friends to visit and that you have been energized by that.
don't worry about being you, and having some downs as well as ups, totally normal and you will find your balance which for you is WAY more up than down...
i did read your blog and am happy for you.
love the idea of you being fluent in german... get on it gurl.
love you
: )




Dear Susy,



I am so thankful to have you in my life.  I feel like I can come to you about anything, and you will be the voice of reason with a fresh perspective from the outside.  I miss you dearly, but I am thankful that you think of me, and you put effort forth to stay in touch with me.  


Love on ya, 


ARMS**



OVER & OUT


Just another day in the life of an unlikely military wife...**
