expanding

I'd say it was the waist line that is expanding from the 4 or 6 donuts I had from a J&WU classes work today, but no, it is digital.

yeah i hitched up to the tumblr train.  Trying something - staying on topic and focused.

Tumblr seems to work pretty well.  In fact I really like how the multiple images are displayed when clicked.  Pretty slick.  way better than i can do here.  As much as I've been aware of the tumblr thing I've just never gotten into it - always seemed to be repost centers.  But it actually seems to be good for original stuff... time will tell.

It also challenges me to select, edit, critique and collect more images.  I see it as a good thing.

I should focus on food but with Nick Cz working on his cookbook for the manorexic cyclist, well maybe that project will come later.

So I even went one further, and am blasting new posts automatically to Faceplace and Twitterdumb.  Because everyone wants to see it, right?  I will not be carpet bombing this thing with the images, even though it might improve the look/feel of the place.  Gotta keep this all consistent.  Or inconsistent.  A straight up reflection of me.

Canton timing has been tossed back into uncertainty.  Looks like I might actually be better off with the rest of the schedules by racing the not as old dude old dudes race.

Took the day completely off the bike, and oddly work.  Sick day, had my 40 year check up at the doc's office.  Everything seems to be in decent shape.  HR was kind of high when i was lying down, probably from the pile of coffee, but the doc seemed pleased that it was 50.  Lets see what the blood work says, but it would appear I'm not doing to poorly on the health front.  Which really must be a shock, i eat pretty well, exercise pretty damn regularly...

Salad tonight with some left over pasta options for those that want some more food.  My friend Justin had planted the bug in my head about dry beans.  I'd been 'lazy' and just spending the dollar or two for canned beans to make hummus or chili or whatever.  But lately, well I've started the whole soaking and cooking thing.

And I have to say, it is not so bad.  I can soak em, and then freeze half or put em in the fridge for a day or two, cook em and then eat em.  Pretty simple, AND, I can remove one more source of BPA...

Just waiting for the oldest to get home before dressing the salad...

Remember - you need fat to benefit from a green salad.  Seriously.  Most of the nutrients that you need are fat soluble, fat free dressing means a couple things: #1 high in sugar and processed corn and soybean byproducts, #2 negative nutrient delivery system.  Make your own.  It ain't hard and use lots of good tasty extra virgin olive oil and whatever else you want.
