Just when you thought I was gone...

I'm back.

There are certain things you never forget...how to ride a bike, how to swim and up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B,A, Start...

I'm back in the suck living the dream and the life that is definitely not aloha.  I haven't done much in the form of exercise since my departure from Hawaii (thank god it isn't permanent) other than think about how and when I'm going to get "back into it"...what ever that is.

Seriously though, I have started my running again in earnest, and will be building that solid base for the next 8 weeks.  There is a bike here in the gym that I can spin on if it isn't broken from sheer over use.  As for the pool...well the Euphrates is the closest thing to one of those and I'm not going in it.  

I have been passing my time with long days "at work" an hour here and there on the road and quasi-dedicated (can I say that) trips to the gym.  It's life for the next 6 months.  All in all I am doing well and have no valid complaints.  

This is my third trip here and life is always getting better...on both sides.

So, until I have another free minute warm Aloha and I promise my next hiatus will only be a few days.

Crash sends...

He's back! Love the Contra reference. One of the best games ever to date. Hope you make it home safely. There's some guy in your age group back home that's loving your absence because he finally knows what it's like to win!

Godspeed, Crash. Stay safe.

Best wishes, Crash. Keep your head down and the legs moving.

Be over there myself in a couple of months, just in time for summer. Keep it cool for me. ;)

Take care Crash. The pool will be waiting when you get back.

About time! Maybe Santa could send more exercise bikes?
