You know, wildmouse was exactly right when she opined last night that to have a LiveJournal account is to feel guilty for not writing in it…
So, to first recap the week: I finally got around to getting my bike tuned up and in rideable condition, so on Thursday it was off to explore Black Creek Greenway, a lovely green way I discovered during some earlier geocaching. It was a five-mile round trip (with some stops to hit caches, of course). Good gods, am I out of shape. Also, in hitting the last cache of the day I was walking back to my bike, all self-congratulatory, and didn’t see the big ol’ branch of thorns right across my path. Ouch. So now my legs look thoroughly frightful, but they’re just surface scratches. Anyway, biking and geocaching is an outstanding combination, but since takaza doesn’t really have a bike that’s rideable it’s something that’s a solo activity, which isn’t nearly as much fun. We’ll need to work on that.
Friday was a bit of cleaning and grocery shopping, and making more cinnamon scones, yum. wildmouse and me_not_you came over for dinner, and Dan got to work on setting up the DirecTivo unit that Brophey was so kind to lend us. As expected, we need to get a new card for it but they’re shipping it freebies. It should be here by Tuesday, and the only drawback is that we can’t get local channels on the unit until the card comes in, oh well.
For today? Hm, need to finally get around to cleaning out the garage so we can fit another car in there. Probably need to do some laundry, too. Oh, the excitement! We may wander over to Donald & Janelle’s later to be sociable, too. For now…time to make the coffee.
Wow, just like that it works? Great!
And, as the sales guy I talked to said, it used to cost money to get a new card, but now it’s free. Awesome.
I’m all jealous. I’ve never used that unit, and I really really really really wanted to. 🙂 But I can’t until/when I move. Boy, who knows when that will be. 🙂
