Six Peeps

Apology to some of my peeps!

Happy Monday!

Don’t you hate it when you invite people to join you for some sort of activity and they totally flake out last minute? I sure do…

Well, I have to say, this weekend I had to flake out of three different invitations by my very own peeps. And even though they were due to some pretty uncontrollable circumstances, I steel feel like a real jerk! So I thought today I would apologize to the peeps I had to stand up.

On Friday, my Jersey Shore bride, Wendy invited Jenny and I (and even Gary!) to a BBQ! I was so excited and flattered that a bride was inviting my whole immediate family to a BBQ! Well things happened, and long story short, I couldn’t make it. Even worse, I had all of Wendy’s info at the studio so I couldn’t call her until the day after. Shame on me! Sorry Wendy, I promise we will hang before your wedding, maybe we can do a double-date to a Rockies Game or something!

Sunday, I was so pumped to show up at a Messenger Race in Denver that was being put on by the Rio mexican restaurant and largely by my Messenger contact Rich, from MILE HIGH MESS. I had my camera, and I actually made it halfway there, but without getting too detailed about my “situation”, you can read my FitDay Journal for Sunday. Hopefully that will explain things a little.

Rich is a cool guy, a few weeks ago I ran into him in Downtown Denver. I was riding through to have a coffee at Common Ground and Rich rode up to me and we chatted for a bit. I thought that was so cool that he caught up to me to say “hey”. I was impressed with Rich’s SA (Situational Awareness). I don’t remember that guy ever really looking for cars as we darted through intersections. I think that his daily messenger routine has him dialed in to the senses. My guess is that he can hear cars and knows if one is coming without really having to look. Anyway Rich, I’m bummed I couldn’t make it. I really wanted to enter the “Drag Race”, too. I am still determined to get this photodoc finished if it takes me two years!

And Dan, who invited me to another BBQ, I had to pass for the same reason I couldn’t make it to the Messenger Race.

Anyway, that’s all I have time to blog about today, but check back soon for more wedding images and other random thoughts!

MY FIT DAY!
I’m starting week 2 of 12! After this week I will be 1/6 of the way towards my goal of losing 25 lbs. I lost 4 pounds last week, and I am expecting similar results every week until I get to 200 lbs. Then I’m going to really have to step it up to keep that momentum!
