Well, about 3 hours ago, a guy from Indianapolis came and picked up the FZR. I owned it for a year and two weeks. When I bought it mother’s day weekend in 2005 (sorry mom!) it looked like this:

A year later, it looked like this:

I sold it for $1500, which is about $500 more than I paid for (although I sunk a tad over $1000 fixing it up!) But, thats what a hobby is for I guess. Emily, my loving and very kind wife, let me keep a portion of the proceeds from the sale and I plan on sinking them into the FZ6. Exhaust? Touch up addons (wind screens, lower cowling, etc…)? Need to customize it someway though!

Grrr….so again…we’re waiting on our house. We were promised seed & straw for our yard by June 1st. I called the sales counselor today to ask if she’d heard anything about grass, since the deadline is only about a week away. She said that she’d heard from other people this morning and was already on the phone with the superintendent.
The superintendent called me back and said that they are getting rid of all the rocks and putting down topsoil today, but that it may be weeks before we get seeded due to weather. Weather? The weather’s been great! Grr…anyway, who knows when we’ll get grass…or a fence. Hopefully things will turn around and we’ll get it sooner than later; I’m so tired of DIRT (so is Megabyte).
Wonder if Fischer’s ‘oopsie’ has anything to do with this taking so long (Fischer is our builder’s parent company).
Grr.

So I have a new venture in my life…I’m starting to read the Left Behind series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. I’ve been hounding Paul to add a “currently reading” section to our website, since I am always reading something.

If you haven’t heard about it, the Left Behind series is written about the rapture of the church (God calling all of his followers to heaven) and the story of how those that are left behind prepare for the seven years of tribulation until the glorious appearing of Jesus at the end of days.

The first book titled “Left Behind”

gives a brief synopsis of the rapture and introduces the main characters. I finished that one this weekend and am already, after only 1 day, halfway through the second book, “Tribulation Force.”

There are twelve books in the series, and then they are actually adding some more books as prequels to the first book, to basically lead up to the rapture that takes place in the first book.

So far I really like the series. Has anyone else read it??
Thanks to Amberly who introduced the books to me!

After shopping around and researching for a few months, I finally decided on a new bike: A 2006 Yamaha FZ600.
