I have a friend on FB.. I don't really know him.. I think he knew who I was from the pow wow circuit.

He is in his mid 20's... and is trying to raise money and awareness of fibromyalgia [he has it himself]

He wants to ride from Vt. [where he lives] to Florida. He was going to leave tomorrow.. but is delaying it until Monday because of the storm.

He just recently got a bike... a Roadmaster.

His schedule has him doing 85 miles a day.

He did post the other day... going for his first ride.. he was averaging 16.6 mph. I don't know if that was it actual average for the whole ride.. after the ride?

I have seen enough people look down at the computor while on the flats.. and that becomes there average. :roll:

Then he posts about riding 2 miles casually in just over 5 minutes. :o

That works out to 24 miles per hour.

I think it is great what he is trying to do.. but I also feel sorry for him.. I don't think he has a clue.. what he has ahead of him..

:(


Ahh the sheer dumbness of youth, Oh how I miss you. :lol:

happy_teardrops wrote:These little dolls are my new little obsession.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matryoshka_doll

It's kind of a neat story to me. 3 wks ago, I had a VERY briefer than brief conversation about these dolls.... with a co-worker. I was trying to think of their name. I couldn't remeber "nesting" and I certainly couldn't remember "matryoshka" or "babushka". LOL Then, I forgot all about the conversation. I was off work for 10 days when I was sick and the co-worker that I am talking about was told that I was on vacation. Almost a week ago, she was in a thrift shop and found a set of babushkas and bought them for me. Inside the last doll, she had a note which explained that she didn't know what kind of day I was having that Fri, but she was thinking about me. Of course, I started crying. That Fri had been a tuff day and, of course, she didn't have to do that. That was really touching. :) Anyway, they are becoming my new obsession. I think they are a metaphor of life --- in a way ...like the layers and layers which make up a person...the memories...the soul...the past the present.... like the skin of an onion...Plus, I read that they may also symbolize fertility.....I really want children, if that's possible now. Maybe fertility could also be a renewed life....transforming. :thinking: :)

I am having a euphoric experience at times.....thanks for your patience with me :oops: ;)

Anyway, that is what's on my mind.....how are y'all?


I collect Russian Nesting Dolls too. :) :thumbsup: I have maybe 4-5 of them so far. There not easy to find here in Albuquerque.
