I'd like it, but Miata has to go before I can responsibly jump on anything. I just came across it because I was helping my buddy look for 4runners haha.

took my bicycle out again.. same trail but with head wind and all, cut down about 7min overall vs yesterday. and it kicked me in da arse again. my quads are shot. lol but happy to report i lost about 5-6lbs since starting cycling and i think my legs are starting to remember my road biking days.

and it's not like im on a diet or anything. im still chomping down on steaks, burgers, dogs, chili, burritos, donuts (i had 3 yesterday, 2 this am), and icecream. lol haha

Man sounds like I need to get one of these folding bikes haha

Friday took the CBR600rr out for a ride with the GF. Had some breakfast, rode home. Then we went to the Zoo. Love our Zoo here in SD. Got to watch a gorilla charge and slam the glass scaring the people in front of it haha.

Saturday did a full detail on the Civic. Wash, Clay, Polish and Wax. Got to use my pop up canopy for the first time and it did perfect to keep the car shaded and cool. Car is nice and glassy smooth. The minimal swirls are about 99% gone. If I get REAL close and the light is just right....you can see some on the piano black paint areas.

Sunday started to build backyard chairs and then went to the beach for a few hours. Then got home, played some games and binged some of that 70s show. Love that show.

Was leaving to work today and got delayed by some random passerby who talked to me for 10 minutes...ultimately to ask if I can give him some money. Good thing I don't keep any on me.

Then at work, we have all this construction going on so I have to walk the most round about way to get into my office.

Happy Monday!

sound like a busy weekend, shinjari! ure too nice.. if some random guy came up to me i’d just start walking and say ‘alright have a good one!’ and keep on doing watever i was doing.

i hate it most when someone tries to start a conversation while i’m washing my car. i just tell them ‘yah im kinda busy right now’ hinting to go away. if dat fails just douse dem with da hose. lol

Yeah it was as I was opening my gate to pull the miata out to goto work...lol.

While detailing the civic, realized how soft the paint is. I got 6500 miles since buying the car back in August 2017. There are 2 pin sized chips in the bumper and several places where the paint didnt chip but it deformed, making a crater. >< Granted only I know they exist. And theres a 1/4" scratch on the rear bumper where paint is missing. Seems like something sharp just scraped paint away. Looks like I gotta get me a rear bumper applique and/or some touch up paint.

Gonna be a busy week at work...working late since GF and I are going to SF this Friday-Tuesday.
