Taking a Beating

So, we went biking again today. But, this time it was straight up, I got probably 10% of the distance we we’re planning, JT and I we’re spent (I was near nausia).

Very humbled. Eat before biking - will do.

So, I’m kinda good, kinda lousy at Poker. I can always seem to reach to the final few, but then I rather quickly fall apart.

In the group it can be a bit easier to read what people are trying to do and how they are reacting to the card turns. There’s more time as the bet moves around to build a bet, scare, bet strangely. But, when it gets down the few, the bets get big, and you can’t make small moves, it’s harder to fold a hand. But, that’s really the fun I suppose

Biking

So I bought a mountain bike the other day, and we went out to go riding.  Mountain bikes are a bit more expensive than I anticipated, but I’ve been wanting start for a few weeks now.  It felt good, I haven’t physically exerted myself for anything
fun in quite some time. Stressful things seem less improtant as you try to get your way up a hill after your breath is spent, or go down a nice steep downhill, without braking or hitting some rock the wrong way.  It’s also a great way to finally start doing some excersize.  I’m going again next weekend.

New site template, still needs some minor adjustments.

Ciao for now.
