My friend (let’s call her O) and I skipped the Mavs game and opted for sushi and then beer with the Jew Crew. One of the girls was celebrating her last weekend in Dallas and the result was a Jewtastic party at a local bar. I had my introduction to the Dallas Jew scene, and I must say, there are lots of them and they travel in packs.

The bike ride this morning was awesome. It’s 9-mile loop around a beautiful lake complete with sailboats. It’s pretty flat but sufficiently twisty to keep things interesting. After one lap with O and her friends, I rode one more lap alone when they left to play softball. I then went to Richardson Bike Mart to scope the bikes they carry. I asked if they carry Lemond, and the salesman guy smiled. Apparently, Greg Lemond talked smack about Lance Armstrong using drugs to stay competitive. Since Richardson Bike Mart is where Lance got his start in cycling, Richardson isn’t crazy about selling Lemond bikes anymore. The Richardson owner called Trek (parent company of Lemond) and bitched. Hence, the salesmen said he could probably get me a Lemond, but there sure are lots of other bikes to look at…

Then I spent the whole afternoon catching up on season one of 24 (the tv show).

Sorry if these posts are starting to read like play-by-plays of my life.

Oh yeah, and then I made spaghetti with ground turkey for dinner. Now you have a complete play-by-play of my weekend. Come back tomorrow for details about my first day of work.
