While having beers with a friend, I decided to do an IronMan 70.3 in June.



So, once that's done, I'll be back to my happy, lushy, tolerant of most people, self.   

you are forgiven, my child

So beers are making you healthier with then assisting your decision making Stella...

[Skybarney]

are you retired? that's a lot to do

and yes, getting out of the house is probably a good start

woohooo! 

Not retied but owning a small hot air balloon company gives me more than my fair share of free time.

I don't own shit  


:edit: well, my car... but you know what I mean

Funny how I operate, huh.  

Reminds me of the time, drinking on a golf course in Florida, when I decided to pull an alligator's tail while it was sunning itself in a sand trap.      Sometimes I make healthy decisions.  Sometimes... not so much.

Owning shit can be overrated.  The more you have the more you have to pay to maintain it and the less you get to play.  When I did not own squat I had huge playtime but few toys.  It took a long time to find a balance.

For what it is worth I lived in a tent for two years while swinging a hammer for way substandard under the table paycheck to buy my first balloon.  It took another year to save up enough to actually start a small company.  Now I make just enough to pay all the bills and do something crazy like mod my Duc or go on a vacation once a year.  This year it was stay at home all winter, last year it was Costa Rica.

Now I make almost as much running my own gig as a company in Napa was willing to pay me to fly for them full time.

I'm certainly not at a balance of anything...  still trying to pick the pieces up off the floor

[ducpainter]

I hate it when I have to pick myself up off the floor.

[teddy037.3]

that's just the vodka talking 

[Needle99]

But did you spill any beer Stella when the Gator arced up?

[teddy037.3]

ok. turning off computer.

I need to find something to do

[ducpainter]

There are other reasons that I sometimes fall apart...

typically you would be correct.

Spill beer?!  No way!   

I hate it when I have to pick myself up off the floor.

Uh oh.  What did you do.  Or:  what jumped out in front of you?

[ducpainter]

nothing...

recently.

I've been a good boy lately.
