Snow, not enough

Pathetic.  it snowed for about 2 hours yesterday, but melted by the time everything was said and done.  Ugh.  I love summer, but if it has to be cold, why can we not have snow.  I'd like a snow day.  I'd like a shred sesh in powder.  and i'd like to see the beauty in a snow covered landscape.

Anyone know where this is?  looks like a good time...life changing.

Bones

My new Netflix obsession is Bones.  

Currently, the show is in its 7th season on Fox; however, Seasons 1 through 6 are on Netflix.  I love that Emily Deschanel plays a strong independent female character - this super smart forensic anthropologist.  and she's super socially awkward - even better...and it's one of those murder solving shows, so you get sucked into every episode.  Oh wait, Aaand there's Booth (David Boreanaz) the good-looking FBI agent.  Did I ever tell you I wanted to be an FBI agent?  awwwesoome!  and it of course takes place in DC (i.e. setting in MD, DC, VA).  On those facts alone, the show is the bomb dot com.  I just finished Season 5 - on to S6.  it's good; believe me.

I just bought front and back lights for my bike, kinda like this:

jk. i'm sure you knew that.

Pics i reblogged from Tumblr that i diiigg:

hm.  i must like motorcycles.

V.Becks on a swing!

I hope everyone enjoys a little family+friends, relaxation, and comfort and joy this Christmas weekend.  Remember to celebrate *Jesus Christ*, the one who saved our lives.  MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!

I'm a fan

I'm a fan of this cobalt blue color.

In general, I am a fan of anything blue, but i think it's a nice alternative color for fall.  we tend to wear red, orange, and brown in the fall and then transitions to black in the winter, which is fitting.  whatever.  i def like this color better.

that's kinda why i recently bought this belt. hot right?

A freaking wood bike - are you serious?  this is amazing.

those tote-like handbags.  yeah, i need this leather bag for work, but not one that's $300.

I'm a fan of October.  It's MLB playoffs, NFL, NHL, AND soccer season ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!

Last night, the mighty Yankees were defeated in game 5 to send the Detroit Tigers to the ALCS to face the Texas Rangers.  Tonight, we shall see what the NLCS matchup will be.  Please Phillies, PLEASE WIN!  If you do i'll give you a cookie.  I am a fan...perhaps slightly obsessed...although my experience being a Philadelphia fan, I have always been a pessimist.  Plus, the Cards are hot, which makes me nervous.

Our (Philly) teams never win when they are supposed to...but i do have confidence in RoyH.  He's the bomb.com.

Road Biking

I decided that I needed a new hobby and so i bought a road bike (and a helmet, etc.)  what do you think?

i wanna work in some bike workouts to my regiment this fall.  plus, soccer practices will be at ridley field which is only like a mile from my house.  well, perhaps i'll consider a bike commute, but then again, i'll be riding up that nasty hill in the dark on the way home, in sketch bmore.  ok, well, maybe not.  i do however, plan on doing some long rides on saturday or sunday mornings.  

today, i did my first ride.  went about 20 miles out to Quarry Lakes and i can tell that my quads will be sore tomorrow...and my one calf since i cramped up at the very end of the ride.  yay.

i think i'm going to purchase this sweet bike shelf/rack/holder thingy from Elevate.

Cliff Lee is so awesome.  he makes me cry.

I heard May is bike month

The month of may is apparently bike month.  don't you wish you could just cruise into work like this? 

on the other hand i guess my back would start to hurt and prolly my butt.  those 15 hr days staring at a computer screen would totally suck.  anyways, i don't think that its possible to bike to work...just a little too far and i'm a little bit too much of a novice to be traveling on slightly busier routes for a cruiser. 

Dilemma ::  when to cancel cable (Xfinity=comcast=$110/mo)...

1.  The Biggest Loser is down to the final 4!

oh bob.

2.  American Idol - same.

3.  my DVR is sooo backed up.

4.  ManU v. Barce is on 5.28.11

also, i got netflix and its just way way fickle.  like it takes forever just to retrieve...and fails around 65% of the time.  that sucks.

whoah.  awesome growing plant ring.

yesterday, i did nothing...like nothing.  i didn't feel too well when i got home and so i skipped the workout.  then i laid on the couch for several hours browsing on my computer.  until i fell asleep.  awesome wasted day.

Looking fresh

2 looks I love from Madewell's sale rack. Ok, so I realize that being on the sale rack, they are so last season, but still...

I also want a new bike. Check out Republic bikes - custom made and relatively affordable; cool fresh colors too:
