Mi mi mi mi mi...



Clear your throat and sing it with me...
"Happy birthday to me. happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me-e... Happy Birthday to me"


Well, substitute the "me" for "you" and it should sound better. 
Yup. Today's my birthday. Older, but not more mature. 
During Sephie's theater class I jogged down to the Nitty Gritty for a free bottomless mug of Capital Maibock. I cut myself off after two and jogged back for Sephie. Then we strolled down State Street to Yellow Jersey to pick up a few odds & ends for the 48.2F.   Andy was pretty cheerful, so Seph and I picked up a chain, grips, Planet Bike H2O cages and some gloves for her. 


Oh yeah, the 9c. I picked up the Flyte Celsius 9 (48.2F if you do the conversion) last week from the seller. $130 for a NIB frame for use as a spare bike is a pretty good deal. I should be able to keep the total spent under $250 and have another reliable bike. The frame with EBB tipped the scale at 4.8# so it might end up somewhere around 23# like the Fe2+.

If you've noticed the image quality has improved you'd be correct. Yesterday we unplugged the ice dams in the storm drains and the water level at our intersection dropped a few inches. Oh yeah, water, it was warm enough it was raining all morning. As we went to Circuit City it turned to snow, again. We went to get my birthday gift of the camera I'd hoped to get at Christmas. I'm digging it. 


It will significantly improve race and training images. As well as recording Sephie's antics.
