Level Of Difficulty at Work: 3 out of 10
NapTime During Lunch: Zip
Work was the usual, pretty light day. Nothing out of the ordinary except for one guy pleading guilty and the judge goes through this whole scripted schpeel with a series of questions about giving up your rights blahblah. i swear i hear at least the same thing 3-4 times a day. Anyhow one series of questions involves being coerced. 'Are you pleading guilty because of a co-defendant, or has anyone put pressure to plea. The guy says yea. my lawyer. He doesn't comprehend much. But he does comprehend stealing cars.
Whata Loser..
The weekend was fun, saturday off to freaksno. Went to a birthday party, the kids 1st.. It was more a gathering for the adults than for the kiddies. Then you see everybody else with them, oi! Hung out for a bit then ventured to hang out with Andrew and Marlia.
Went there and got to ride Andrews Scarlet Red BMW 1100. It's a really gentle, smooth riding motorcycle. Meant for touring / commuting i liked it's ease. It had quite a pull, due to the large displacement, if you wanted it. Everything is adjustable, Windscreen, HandleBar angle, Seat height, it's got ABS, Heated handgrips digital gear display. The only bad things was that it's a bit heavy, but that adds to the smoothness, and at idle you can feel the jiggle of the boxer style engine bopping left to right. One annoying thing is that if you put the kickstand down, the bike turns off, even in neutral. BUT if it's on it's centerstand, the bike turns on any way you want it. Bizarro German things, usually theres a reason for it. Compared to my bike, the BMW pushes harder, but not faster like my bike. The handling is gentle on the bike and the body, the Gixxers handling is scalpel sharp but the riding angle is hard on the body. So the Gixxer is a hot knife through butter, while the BMW spreads hot butter with a smooth knife. Does that make sense?
Whatever, it's a bike, just ride..
Got to bakersfield Sat night. Went Rav4 hunting, the only one we found was at a mercedes dealership, 2003 Rav4, White, Limited package, 19k miles for $16k. Beautiful, but it's only a 2WD. It seems that nobody likes to drive their SUV's offroad. It's forsaken!
Lets see, Delilahs gone through, sketchy miles of offroad with ruts, roots, rocks and gravel. Forged through 6 rivers crossing the road. Been through 3" thick snow, and ice. She never did play in the beach or in the mud though. Me and Delilah like to avoid those two last things. Shes so cute!
SUV's do not belong here..
Anyhow didn't find what we wanted. Hung out a bit more with the parents and ventured back. Drive baby Drive!
