c'est vrai

Nothing exciting going on???

Me either, most exciting thing was a crown came off my tooth. Luckily got into the dentist pretty quickly. Even more lucky was they just had to recement it and not replace it. A new one is @ $2k. That always hurts.

Nope. Right now, I'm playing the "it's works fine in staging but is as slow as a snail in production" game which is never fun.

Coincidentally, my kids have a dentist appointment this morning. They literally just left the house.

There was one time that I went fishing and this same turtle took my bait like 10 times; and trying to unhook a turtle is very unpleasant.

Turtles don't learn. I caught a soft shelled turtle (perhaps the meanest turtle in the world). Rather than getting near that mouth, I just cut the line. I then tied on a new hook...and promptly caught the exact same turtle. So, now I left him with two piercings. A very punk turtle, by that point.

How about an update? Where abouts are you?? Or are you in the witness protection program?

I'm in Columbus Ohio. I broke my camera the other day and have to get a new one. Using my phone just sucks. The phone is my navigation device and too hard to repurpose just for a picture.

If you're curious about my adventure, you can track it on CycleBlaze. Just take the slow road.

Yeah, they can put the bite on you.

Thanks, I have been curious.

I checked out a few of your entries. Your very prolific. That journal will probably be longer than War and Peace by the end of your trip.

[Shaggy Hiker]

Well, yeah. Every day is a day, and there will be a lot of them.

[wes4dbt]

I'm far to lazy for that complete of a description of the journey. My journal would end up being the size of a pamphlet.

[dday9]

I can't write very well.

[dday9]

I tend to write too many words.

[dday9]

Although, I do know how to use: they're going over there for their stuff.

[dday9]

And I know that in order to include palindromes that the letters need to be the same read forward as they are backwards, e.g. racecar. Radar is a palindrome too.

I do tend to write a lot. I'm a quick typist, so typing words is easier than any other type of writing for me.

[Shaggy Hiker]

I also know that there are a class of sentence that can be spoken, but which cannot be correctly written. I try to avoid using those.

Writing is different today. When I was in college I had to use a typewriter, a dictionary and white out. Some mistakes were so bad you just had to retype the whole page. Being a slow two finger typer, just made it a long task. Which I never enjoyed. What's nice about a forum like this is I don't care much if my sentencing is correct.

When I was in high school I took a typing class and got to be a fairly quick touch typist and I enjoyed it. But things change.
