Been a good weekend so far. Friday I left work a little early to go get a new mask for my C-PAP. Apparently my insurance will pay for a new mask every 6 months. I've had my current one for about 20. So I got the paperwork filled out and picked it… more » Fri May 28, 2010
Today I wasn't on call for work. I helped someone out last week covering their Thursday, so they covered mine today. Because of that I took a half a day off. Went over to Eric's shop to grab some lunch, then went home. I quickly got suited up and… more » Tue May 25, 2010
Since I'm on call this week today I kept the afternoon simple. When I got home I first installed a new headset onto my Heckler. Wow, it's so much nicer than the stock headset. I can't wait to ride it. Of course it would be better if I had my new… more » Mon May 24, 2010
My sister had her baby this morning, so now I have a brand new niece! Erin Kathryn Torp. 6lbs, 19 inches. Congrats Kristi & Dana!
(Hopefully this one likes me more than the last one! ) more » Saturday was pretty mellow for me. I pretty much hung out at home all morning. Around 6 I got extremely bored so I jumped on the motorcycle and rode to Eric's house. They were planting their garden. When they finished we all went to Eric's parents… more » Sat May 22, 2010
I took yesterday off, which was nice. First thing I did was mow the lawn, and get out the trimmer. Right when I finished my boss called me to tell me the stunt rider was about to go. I booked it down to BMW Motorcycles of Utah where they were having… more » Fri May 21, 2010

Yesterday after getting home from work I set about modifying the frame a bit. I cut off the Cantilever brake stop, and smoothed out that section of the frame. Then it was time to paint. I went over to Home Depot and looked through all the paint.… more » Wed May 19, 2010
Right after I got home tonight I started working on the frame. I ended up getting just about all of it stripped. There is a bit of paint left in the few places I couldn't get my wire wheel. So I'll either sand those down by hand before painting, or… more » Tue May 18, 2010
Woo hoo! I found something that is kinda cool to actually blog about rather than the drivel I had been spewing up the last couple days.
I'm building a new hardtail bike. Let me clarify that... I'm building a hardtail bike out of all the spare parts I… more » Sun May 16, 2010
So on Friday I rode my motorcycle to work. All seemed well, until it was time to go. It was pouring at work. So I rode through the rain. As I got to the on ramp to get on I-15 I slow way down, and start my turn. My back tire just slid. It felt… more » Fri May 14, 2010
At the end of the work day yesterday I got a great call. Becky called to tell me that my jacket was indeed inside their new house. Huge relief! I was not looking forward to spending another $500 on a new jacket and ipod.
The ride home from work was… more » Thu May 13, 2010
After work yesterday I kept things pretty simple. I made some dinner, and watched some SG-1. About 8 I went over to Steve & Becky's new place to see if they needed anything. I helped Steve hack away at his door until we could fit a new deadbolt,… more » Wed May 12, 2010
I haven't written anything here in the longest time. I need to get working on that. So things may not be interesting, but whatever.
Yesterday was a pretty busy day at work. It was of course Tuesday though, so that meant lunch. I met up with Eric… more » |
