Danger! Adventure Ahead!

So I graduated college...

Diploma

Success

And now I get to have a life for a year or so, then probably go back to school for a masters in rocks.  It will be awesome.  Now I have to do that lovely thing called find a job.  Hopefully the lessons I learned in college can help me out.  Lessons like:

1) How to not set a building on fire with lava

2) Before orogeny, comes subduction

3) Stress does not equal strain

4) Don't drink anything that was made in a tub

5) Riding your bike in Michaux makes you a real man (or woman)

Point number 5 is critical.  The other points are important too, but in the next week, Michaux will prove its worth.  As a nice break between college and "real life," I'm participating in the Trans-Sylvania Epic.  Yup.  Leaving tomorrow.  Starting Sunday, and for 7 days after that, I will be racing my bike around Rothrock and Bald Eagle State Forests in Central PA.  It is going to be the best of fun.  I have some stiff competition (JB, Mark Weir, Vegan Rob, Mike Y, Brandon D, etc.) but I'm hoping to do as well as I can overall.  Since there will be interweb access at the TSE base camp, so I may be updating you mid-week if I don't feel very hurty.  And yes that is a word.

So that's the adventure.  First TSE, then life, because folks, no matter how much life sucks, we have a good thing going.  This shit is an adventure.
