I’d like to thank all of you who donated before December 1, 2008 for helping me raise over $1,000! Benchmark #1 has been reached! More than 1/3 of my required minimum and 21% of my personal goal of $5k! I’m so touched by your support!I said I’d give the incentive prize to whomever helped the […]

On Sunday, Shannon took me on the Paradise Loop in Marin. We rode from the Mission all the way thru Tiburon, around the Paradise Loop and then had Indian food in Sausalito and took the ferry home.This is the first ride that I’ve felt in my legs a few days after. Seems I’ve found my […]

…was on the 15th anniversary! Before last night, every time Critical Mass would take to the streets, I would be otherwise engaged and would either watch from a window or not even know it was happening.Yesterday, I got finished work early and was ready to ride at 6:15 – I even got to start with […]

today is really busy – lots going on at work. big deposit to make and then enter into “the system” while also entering transactions (the bookkeeping hat is my least favorite here) and these are so time and focus consuming. i also have this design competiton to process and i’m hoping that my boss has […]
