Just Give'er

So the past two days have been pretty intense on the cross bike. I've been training on the cross bike even though my biggest mountain bike races of the year are coming up (you can see where my priorities are). I still don't know whether or not i'm going to put my cross levers on it though...i've been riding pretty well in the hoods. I just want to see what it's like doing barriers without the cross levers before I make my decision.

I should be getting a care package from home on Monday (hopefully before) that will include food, a warm winter jacket, gloves, and some other necessities. I can't wait to go home and eat a real Thanksgiving dinner and have pie that tastes good. My Boston creme pie today was a little sub par. (Aside: I have never understood the phrase sub par. In golf you want to be sub- or under- par. So why in the phrase sub par is it deemed as negative...maybe I can get a follow up to this on Colt's thinking website.) For the most part though, the food is really good. It is just so important to get a good sandwich maker at lunch. There are two girls that make really good sandwiches and the guys that just kinda throw the meat on the bread...I hate it. Someone needs to teach them how to make one.

This weekend we're heading down to D-town for the collegiate regionals. I need to give Jesse a call to see if Evan and I can still sleep at his place instead of spending more money or camping. After all, Evan and I aren't savages, we don't camp. I'm gonna bring my cross bike with me too, because from what I hear the short track course is pretty flat. Apparently my hero ran a cross bike at this same course last year, and if he can pull it off I'd like to think that I can, too.
