New Avatar

I got some encouragement yesterday to change my blog avatar and so I have.  This picture is part of the Jim Warren collection.  I'm working on a new background now.

I got into my first Shadowrun private match last night thanks to Soup.  It was a blast but a little over my skill level.  I was in a solo match playing an elf and got the invite and forgot to change races.  Actually, things happened so fast I forgot a lot of things.  The first match I was killed very quickly by eggman.  Actually, I must have been an easy target for him in most matches.  I could only stay on for half an hour and it went quickly.  But, if no one minds an ubern00b on their team, I could use the experience in trying out differnt combinations to see what works best with my style of playing (you know, playing dead)

In other news, I had to quit running for awhile, my knee is hurting.  This really blows since I was working on doubling my distance.  So, I must have pushed to far too soon.  I'll just rest for a couple of days and start over again.  Although the way the wind has been blowing here yesterday and today, I don't really mind taking a break.

I went out to the barn yesterday and took the filly out.  I can tell she is getting attention from someone else.  She was fairly attentive and was a lot calmer walking to the round pen. I did a short lesson since the wind would occasionally blow up her tail and she would spook.  So, I left her in the round pen to work out her wind demons.

My father-in-law has built a set of shelves for my dresser to house the xbox, games, dvd player and my jewelry box and they will be bringing it by today.  I'm excited.  He does a wonderful job.  He has already built us a butcher block and a rolling pantry that fits beside the refrigerator.  Nice solid oak wood and finish.  Oh, I almost forgot the medicine cabinet he just finished with three mirrored doors.

Would you rather
Always have to write with your feet
or
Always have to write with a pen between your elbows?


Have a good day all.

Keep on Go!
