    reminds me of the line in "The Money Pit":

    How long will it take?

    "Two Weeks . . ."

    Now in stereo
    Visionaries say "Yes, we can."
    Engineers say "Not so fast."

    and Seamus is awesome

    I've been out there twice to watch and once on the Team Chicago day. I'm really itching to actually go ride for a change. This might be the longest 55 days of this year.

    I just watched that again a few weeks ago. And I laugh just as hard now when the tub falls through the floor as I did 20 years ago...

    55 days though, I better get off my arse and get my leathers made...

    we really don't care anymore, we got to see whales without you last year so we'll do it again if we have to. I'd be nice to have an expert on hand though.

    I haven't spoken to anyone at the track recently so I'll let you know later this week.

    Between now and then, Tornado & I have...
    • 19 kids baseball/softball games to attend (that's 40+ hours cheering our offspring on to victory, or at least providing positive commentary)
    • One major league baseball game (go Greinke!)
    • Three racing weekends (that's six days of Pit Chick Duty while Tornado kicks young hotshot butts)
    • And at least one Track Day (hopefully without rain gear!)
    You'd think I'd be busy enough to keep my mind on other things, but I still can't wait for it to get here! (Hope I have time to pack somewhere in there)

    Two more projects just fell on my lap.
    1.- Moving the Monterrey (Mexico) Corporate Office to their new location. Needs to be moved by July 1st, due to end of lease contract for their current local. Sooner if possible.
    2.- The company I work for recently bought a smaller company in and around Acapulco, Mexico. We need to welcome their 16 locations into our network. Due date is June 30th.

    At this point I'm just hopping I can make it to WSBK at the end of this month since I've had the vacation time approved long ago and already purchased the tickets and hotel reservations. May is going to be an interesting month, as ussual.

    I had shortened my vacations in May in hopes of saving some money and time off for Grattan. Now this.
    I'm not giving up just yet, but man, they're making it difficult.
