So I haven’t been sleeping well. No real reason that I can tell… happens time to time… we all have it now and then. So, I know the one thing that always makes me really happy is to get on the bike and just go. So Sunday I put on the leather vest, grabbed the camera, filled the thermos with some water, and headed out on the bike to — nowhere.

Didn’t have a plan at all… just started going south. I love riding like that. Especially on a great day — and Sunday was a beautiful day. Big white clouds, bright sun, low 80’s… was just a great day.

So, I headed south and when I hit south of Ocala, turned around and started back north again… taking 441 back to Gainesville. Of all the times I’ve ridden the bike (or even pedalled one) I had actually never stopped and walked on the Paynes Prairie  lookout… so I stopped off, snapped a couple of pictures and then got a call.

The positive of using the iphone is that it’s great music on the bike. I love my headset (when it’s not trying to kill me) and it just sounds great on the road. The negative of course, is you know when the phone rings. So I answer it and it’s someone wanting to see the house… and well… long story short (for once), my stress-free day was no longer.

I headed home and then went to Whataburger for dinner — where I ate wayyyy too much and am still feeling the burger this morning

Now, I’m back at work and getting ready for the flight to Michigan on Friday. Although after the ride on Sunday, I’ve decided that the next time I go to Ann Arbor, I’ll have to ride it.

Sure it will take like 7000 hours, but it will cost maybe 100 bucks in gas and I can’t imagine how great I’ll feel after riding that long.

Gotta love the Harley.

It’s that time of year in Gainesville… the time where the gators play the gators in the ultimate fight over alumni donations.

But, the great thing about Orange and Blue weekend, is that usually a good ol’ friendly alumni comes to town. This year, it was The Egan’s who graced our lovely town with their beautiful baby Grace.

Had a great time smelling the flowers, eating a burger at Cafe Gardens, and hanging out with great friends.

The rest of the weekend I spent catching up on films I never saw in the theater; which means I can scratch Dan in Real Life, The Dewey Cox Story, and No Reservations off my list.

My favorite of them? Clearly the chick flick was going to win.

Another weekend with Yeni in Florida. Was great to have a visitor at the house but unfortunately the weather was less than cooperative.

After a great visit to the University of Florida and Big Lou’s Pizza, we had a quiet evening in the house on Saturday and prepared for what we thought would be an awesome all-day bike ride to St. Augustine.

Well, mother nature decided that the flowers needed some more water and the rain started before sunrise and never stopped.

We headed to the beach anyway to have Conch Fritters with friends and see the ocean.

The bike ride will have to wait until May

Rumor has it that Rescue Me, season 5, will start on Tuesday July, 1st (2008). I still say this is the absolute best damn show on television today.

Good evening everyone…. long time no speak. How you been? Really? Great…

Well, I had been using WordPress with Fat Freddy Says for a while now and enjoyed it so much, that I thought it was time for an FISPosner.com makeover. So… welcome home Posner Family! (Can’t you just hear Ty screaming it now?)

The new blog will have some more features than the other blogger version I’m really happy with WordPress.
