Got my spiral staircase for the back deck, and am painting it to match the house. Will install on Saturday with a friend's help.

Wife's car is in the shop to get some damage fixed from a fender-bender (not her fault) back at Christmas. So she's driving my Chevy Volt, and I'm riding my motorcycle, which has sit, sad and forlorn, in the carport for far too long.

Today got up to about 80 MPH on the freeway, and it was SO HAPPY to just chug along. 1300 cc's of deep grunt and torque likes 80 MPH just fine, thankyouverymuch.

While the wife was out of town for a week, I kinda went nutz on the food, and had a lot of "special" things I rarely eat... but had them pretty much every day. A cupcake this day. A hoagie that day. A piece of pie another day. Mozzarella cheese sticks another day.... and suddenly I'm up 10lbs and have had to let out my belt another notch.

Whoops.
