I don't have a good title for this post

I think it's been too long since I have updated. I apologize, I was traveling a lot this month and I have been leading some kaizens. Here I am, past my bedtime since I am taking tomorrow off! I was supposed to have President's Day and Good Friday off this year and didn't take them off, so I call tomorrow my President's Day. I am good with it.

So this is what I have been up to:

Working out. I have been working out almost everyday. I am at the point now where it feels weird if I don't. I ran 8 miles today. Yeah, that's right. I am at the point where I need a better pair of shoes so I can run longer distances. I am hoping that I can run a 10k next month or even a half-marathon. I am 9 minute miles and feel like I can run that pace all day long. I would like to get down to 8:30 miles for 10 miles straight. It's gonna take some time.

Working a lot of hours. With the economy being down, I have a lot of work on my plate. I am not entirely sure why, but I am not complaining. I have a new boss now since my old one received a promotion. I am okay with it. I think I will have a lot of work to do again next month, but maybe not so much traveling

Messing around with Rachel. I thought it was over. Women are so damn crazy, especially this one. She told me she was crazy and I agree with her. We're just friends for now and it probably should stay that way until she gets some things straight. I am too nice. I get told that all the time. Don't worry, she isn't slowing me down or keeping me away from pursuing other interests.

Racing. I went racing for the first time outdoors last weekend. My kart was fast as my brother and I were about 3 tenths faster per lap than everyone else. I won my heat races. It was a shame the feature races got rained out. I could have won 500 bucks!

I bought some dhr stock 2 days ago. It has gone up some 5 dollars since then. I am very happy with this purchase. Thank you Danaher for my job and stock performance.

I am going to St Louis this weekend for a bachelor's party. I hope this is the most amazing, crazy, and sleepless weekend in my life. We are definitely going to the cards/cubs game. I am sure there won't be a whole lot I remember but I will take plenty of pictures. Next weekend I am going to Chicago.

Well I think that's it really. I don't know what else to say. My eye is fully healed. I did go to the doctor and I still have 20/20 vision. I signed a lease for another 12 months for my apt. I think I will have the same job for the rest of the year.

Later,

Bobby
