– should I say it aloud?

– okay…   I’m   burned   out.

– think I’m gonna unplug and go offline for a little bit

Found that fluorescent guy on my roof after I parked, so I left the windows down a little hoping he’ll move on inside and be my new traveling companion.

I don’t even really like golf… the last time I hit a ball was with my brother in Ottawa.  But I’d got it in my head that just once I had to hit the driving range this summer, so I did tonight:

I’m at the Andy Bathgate Golf Range owned by Andy, an ex-Leaf’s player who, ready?… scored the winning goal in the seventh game to take the Stanley Cup in 1964.  We were chatting and I debated but didn’t ask him for a photo because it felt like I’d be offending him. I think he’s way more into golf now.

Last night Rory, the official Real Estate Agent of ‘The Canadian Explorer’, recommended me to Mr. Tweet_Alert  and said that kind thing.  Thanks dude!  Read about our chance first meeting here.

And that tag cloud is apparently what I’ve most Twittered (ha!) about.  I was smirking when I did that because I was like, “hmph, I could be the most inconsistent girl ever, let’s see what comes out of this”.  Not bad… glad exploring is in there, and editing, and the CDN spelling of ‘centre’.

My team is soooo cute!  Left to right that’s Mitch and Mike.  Because to be on my team your name has to start with ‘M’.  What?  Noooo.  Mitch did excellent today, Mike’s registration got screwed up so he got screwed over.  This happened to a lot of people and the organizers blamed all the participants instead of owning up to a crap website.  

I’ve announced to the guys, and now you, that next year they’re gonna ride solely for me, ‘The Canadian Explorer Flyers’; the jerseys will have my logo all giant on their chest and my scrappy printing everywhere else.  I will have team parties and training days and rule with my little iron fist.  Actually, I have no clue how I’m going to afford to sponsor a whole team by myself but meh, I’ve got a year to figure that out.

Mitch is the one who gave me this idea, thanks dude I’m on it.  As well as the finishing up the episode “Exploring Cycling” where I go to three races around Southern Ontario.  It’s almost done, and I’m certain you’ll be inspired to get out and ride when you see me in my… winter coat.  OMG I know, this filming-to-upload time of mine is deplorable.
