Turned twenty-five today. Today is a Monday, so I’m at work. An added plus? The coffee machine is broken. Since my motto is “adapt, overcome, and prevail”, I switched to tea. Its not quite the same, but it gets the job done.
Unfortunately, there was no triumphant ride into work on my 900SS. With some serious cylinder mis-match going on, I have a good deal more work to do before its running in a road-worth condition. I’m ok with this, because my second motto in life is “expect the worst, and you’ll never be dissapointed”.
There was however, go-kart racing and a plethora of apple pies baked by Cyndi. This fits perfectly into my last and final motto “everything is always better with pie”.
So I sat in the garage this morning with a cup full of coffee and a large slice of apple pie looking at my motorcycles in various stages of disarray and thought “I sure feel better about my busted motorcycles with a peice of pie in my hand”
I hope my car insurance rates go down now.

Happy Birthday

Wow, 25, cup-o-joe, apple pie, warm garage, dog curled up at your feet, doesn’t get much better than that. Lets see… 51, busted bones and no pie, yep, you win.
Actually every year since about 25 has been great, I wouldn’t change one.
PS, my bike runs.
Happy Birthday Alex.
