I for some reason have an overwhelming desire to build a lightsaber 😯

I think I may have completely lost all sanity, i'm a grown man obsessing about fictitious swords.

So what are you obsessing about at the moment, let's face it, we all do it

Dita von tease

and punk ladies with nice tattoos

and jones loop bars

and truss forks

and homebrew lights

and 48mm wide kris holm rims with 2.6 29er tyres to make a chubby bike

and growing a nice beard in time for septembers SSUK

so nothing out of the norm

Obsessing would require a level of mental energy which I am currently lacking post ride, but gently ticking over in the nether reaches of my mind is:

- whether to have yogurt or ice cream on my pineapple
- how long I'll get to flake out on the sofa before the dog pesters me into going to the beach
- some guy I met recently who I wasn't expecting to even like that much but who seems to make me smile quietly to myself now and again

Water melons.

I am regularly eating far more than is morally justifiable. As a consequence, I'm waking up in the middle of the night with desperate and urgent need to relieve my bladder - how much water have they got in them ffs ?

I blame Costco for selling them at £3.99, or whatever it is.

The weight of my new c456 - is it worth trying to get it to sub-20lbs (would need new disc brakes f&r, new rear wheel and probably a new stem). But then it would be sub-20lbs and that would be so cool.

housework and my inability to motivate myself to do it..
not being sick from last nights drunken excess..
my bad knee which is healing on a two steps forward one step back basis..
and the fact that I am very possibly going blind from last nights drunken excess..

I'm not really, got my new road bike a couple of months ago, just got some nice new road kit, so nothing at all. This is a bit weird for me, cause there's normally something.

I have been thinking about making chutney quite a bit recently....

A new camera - Sony Alpha 55, which will probably be a 40th present, thus leading to my other obsession, as per deadly......

My last few days, well weeks of my 30's - moreso the ensuing party that has to be organised - local cricket club, marquee, band, DJ, hog roast et al.

Am obsessing about work.

But am also pondering what to do with an old road bike I've inherited. It's unncomfy and unsteady compared to my more newerish one, and it's got downtube shifters that are rather disconcerting to use. Singlespeed it, donate it on, keep it for rainy days, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...

And am trying to word a witty and winning (without sounding weird) opening email to send to some burd on a dating website I've just joined.

My final few days in my 30s

When do they finish?

I turned 40 back in December.

I had a lovely chilled and pensive day and came out the other side feeling pretty good to be honest 🙂

Hope you do as well!

Yeah, Man up Darcy, you ponce!

I'm forty next year, and looking forward to it tbh. Mind you, when you're in such good shape as I am, then being the envy of folk ten, fifteen years your junior is quite cool actually.

I can understand you feeling a lot more insecure though DD. I mean, if I was in such a bad state I would be too. 😐

Hee 😀

Thanks guys, especially Effin. Tuesday to be exact. Actually, I'm cool about it really, but I suppose, as a milestone, it's been on my mind. But obsessing's a bit strong I guess. 🙂

I fully intend to grow old [i]disgracefully[/i].

The idea of embarrassing members of my family, by having them arriving home with friends to find me in the middle of the living room sat naked in a tin bath, quite appeals to me actually....

DD - turning 40 rocks - I bummed off on a 3 week road trip mountain biking round Colorado and Utah in an RV. Figured that if being 40 was that much fun then I wished it had come sooner 🙂

You've still got time to pack your bike and hop on a plane before Tuesday ...

Currently....hacking ipads.

I feel a real campaign building up in me. iPads are desired by everyone and every enterprise IT department is under pressure to set up something so their execs can use them as business tools. But they're not business tools, they're toys. And their security is worse than childish. Someone loses a device, someone like me finds it, I'm into your network in minutes, it's very easy.

Anyway, so far I've been refining the process of being handed an ipad and then presenting the owner with all their passwords stored on the device.

I'm down to 4 minutes 38 seconds so far. All I need is an internet connection.

In no particular order....

A seriously (in my opion) hot blonde I've got a 3rd date with next weekend.....clearly I am playing it cool though...well..errr..

Climbing. After 8 months of no sport what so ever due to a climbing accident and a seriously ****ed ankle I am now back on it and absolutley LOVING climbing again. DESPERATE to get trips to real rock (not resin and ply) sorted but 8 months away and I'm on the outside of some cliques it seems...hmm...if this continues I'll be soloing!

A Nomad. This is an obsession I've had since they came out but they cost a packet ....but with a trip to the states now booked (Sedona etc. bring it on!) I'm waiting to se if my bonus will cover a frame....UK price £1800, US price $1999=£1250....and a bit of luck at the return airport.

3 obsessions...am I obsessed on obsessions!
