Too much...

That's the theme lately...too much...as in too much to do, too much homework, too much school work...ahhh oh well. It's gonna get worse before it gets better.

Writing here took a bit of a back seat, but I thought I would put down a couple things...

Had a kick ass weekend of skiing and biking. The Roubaix in Eugene was sweet and I had a good race...ended up in 9th. I really liked the course...especially gritting it out on the last stretch of gravel to the finish...there was a break that had formed just before the gravel on the last lap...nobody was chasing and they started to have some room going into the gravel section...not so smart by me, but I couldn't get to the front to chase and people weren't really moving...until we hit the gravel that is...the pace picked up and the group responded, problem was that lots of folks got anxious and rode on the edges of the gravel...didn't take long before people were out of control and crashing...which worked out really well for me because I managed to avoid the mess and be on the front when everything opened up...I dug deep and caught the break right before the pavement and just kept pushing...a few folks had followed, but the majority of the pack was back in the chaos of the gravel...kept moving up...I think if I had another 200 yds I would have picked up 3 or 4 more spots...Felt strong and really enjoyed the race...

Been at a conference for school the last 3 days and I am dreading going back to the piles of work that have accumulated by now...and I know the kids didn't get a lot done...time for catch up. Big grad school homework due and class this weekend...then no class till the fall...Putting on the film festival next week...that means late nights all next week...craziness...alright. I'm out...
