The last week was pretty tough. My roadway designs for the Rio Rancho Main Street project need some work. Not much, but I'm getting tired of having most of my work get redone once the budgets are gone. I wonder when I'm going to hear from NY?
I'm still kind of sick, as the UTI that I have been fighting for over a month now has been diagnosed as being antibiotic resistant. Well...duh. So now I get to try a desensitizing regime for my old nemesis, bactrin. The last time I took bactrin I broke out in a whole body welt, my lips swelled up, and I turned into a Darth Vader quality wheezer.
I managed to finally take the old crank set off my handcycle. It required a "cheater bar" about three feet long to break the thing loose. I put the new set on, but now I have to take it totally apart in order to make the derailer work. Oh well, if at first you don't succeed.
I haven't read much more of my Buddhist book this week. I did finish The Kite Runner, however. It was OK, but the first, second and third act format that this book was written in was a bit too obvious to my tastes. That and it seemed a little forced as to the trials and travails the protagonist had to endure.
So what's in store for the coming week? I need to try to catch up with a couple of basic admin tasks, and start the new job with GGI. I am also going to try to get some rides in if I get the crank set fixed today. That and maybe even help clean the house.
I'm worried about the direction this country is headed, and I don't know what is going to happen. I don't think the D's can win if Sen. Clinton is nominated, mostly because she, like J Kerry, is cursed with their vote of support for the Iraq debacle. I fear that the rest of the country has been fooled into thinking that the Bush admin's perfomance is all we can expect any more. If you keep your expectations low, then you won't be dissapointed.
Here's a TMW to mull over. Enjoy.
Peace.
