Jack-o-lantern
Happy Halloween! Of course, with Carter on his way, we did not get to spend too much time decorating. We did get to deocrate a little bit so feel free to check out the pictures.

100,000 miles on the Odometer

100,000 miles on the Odometer

My beloved WRX just posted the big 1-0-0-0-0-0 on the odometer. I feel old. I still love her. We have great times autocrossing and ice racing, but now she just takes me to work… although I still really enjoy her. Here’s to another 100,000.

Slacker Uprising

Sunday, October 19th, 2008

Kathy & Isak Our neighbor’s came over and watched Slacker Uprising by Michael Moore. I am usually get a lot out of Michael Moore’s films but this one was not as insightful. On the plus side, we got to hang out with our littlest neighbor, Isak.

Scaling Infinity

Kathy & I saw the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra perform “Scaling Infinity”. It was beautiful. Thanks to my parents for the gift certificates, there really isn’t anything quite like hearing a world class orchestra live.

St. Peters Rec-Plex Triathlon

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Well, I am a triathlon addict. I completed the St. Peter’s Rec-Plex Triathlon. I finished 12/43 in my age group and 106/424 overall. Fairly pleased since I had not been working out much. The bike route was very fast and I averaged over 17mph (MapMyTri thought i did 18mph)! My slowest swim so far, but I was being very conservative on the swim. Looking forward to next year… if I can squeeze in the workouts!
