Wake Up, Kick Ass, Repeat

 

Outsourcing

Gotta admit hiking is starting to grow on me a little. Tue and Wed (my weekend) I did 2 really fun hikes. Part of what made it fun was the company, part of it is my bike legs are finally getting used to hiking instead of spinning in circles. I no longer go home and curl up in the fetal position mewling myself softly to sleep. Rachel took me through another kick ass gym workout yesterday as well. Damn, I may come out of this with some fitness.

It is kind of strange for me to have people working on my house. I feel guilty when I leave to go play and they are working. Yesterday I leave to go to the gym and they are there. I leave to go hike, they are there. I get back from hiking at 10pm, they are there. So I had a fun filled day while the floor guys spent all day blowing up 3 sanders in a stuffy un-air conditioned house. Then I look at the bill and the guilt goes away pretty quick. It did get me thinking though. Maybe I can outsource my life. Hire somone to go to the cube farm for me while I go play. I would probably need to get “hired” at a few firms to make enough but I think it would work. All I need to do is find someonewith no criminal back ground, reasonably intelligent, and underemployed. I would coach them to pass the Series 7 and 63 plus coach them for the interview process. I would then take a cut of their salary in exchange for my life changing coaching and I would be living the life.

This Saturday I am heading up to fish the South Fork. The salmon flies are in full effect and the cutts are fat and hungry. Not sure how the wing will hold up yet but it is worth a try. At the very least I can sit in the boat and drink some full strength Idaho beer. Good luck to everyone racing this weekend. I would love to be lining up for some time in the big ring but oh well. Word on the street is Tommy Boy is gonna big ring the single speed race. Yaa!
