Tri Stalker Strikes Again

I hope everyone had an awesome weekend! It has been absolutely gorgeous here in the Houston area so I am loving it. I want to thank you all for your kind words from my last post. You blogging buddies are a huge support system to me. I did get a biatch slap back to reality when I went to buy a swimsuit on Saturday, oh the horror! I bought one that managed to, lift, separate, tuck, tighten, and hide as much as possible without looking grandmaish. I also, hung out with my sister, Melissa on Saturday at the local tri store all morning. She was looking for a bike, and her boss & husband own Tri On The Run. She did find a bike to meet her short limbs, a Fuji 46cm frame, my bike looks giant next to her's..LOL! She was scared to test drive it by herself so they let me take out this sweet all carbon frame bike. It just had a speed look about it. I fell in love hard and fast, but I just put aero bars on my baby so she will continue to be my girl. Also, money is the main issue, but don't tell my baby girl that. I want her to think she is my one and only 4eva. The owner Johnny gave us plenty of personal attention, and I was able to pick his tri mind for a few hours. I think I will have to save my pennies and get a proper fit on my baby girl.

My "baby girl"

On Sunday, my sister and I planned a 15 mile ride together to get her acquainted to being on a bike. Mel got a flat tire 1.5 miles out. I had a seat pack, but no clue on what to do, and her tubes are smaller than mine. I rode back to the car, and picked her up. Than we tried to do a short run together, but her asthma was giving her a really hard time. I guess it was time to call it a rest day.


In other tri stalking news, I had talked to one of the Mom's from Lil' Busters pre school not too long ago. She saw my imprint from my number on my leg, and asked which tri I did. I was in a hurry so I could not talk long. This morning when dropping off Lil Buster I saw her, and her bike racked on the back of her car. Oh yea, baby cue the Mission Impossible theme song. This afternoon, I waited around for her to pick up her son. Lil Buster, was like "Mom can we go home now?" No, not yet HAHAHA! Than I saw Kari (cool Mom I love to hang with) we talked, and I let her in on my plan. Sorry Kari, I was a little nervous about my stalk attack so I did not even ask you about your weekend or anything. Well, I saw the bike Mom coming out, and introduced myself. We talked a bit exchanged numbers and score we are gonna ride together when she gets her bike back from a tune up.
