Was going to ride this morning, but decided to sleep in.  Have a personal training session tonight.  I figure I'll start ramping up for Door County on May 15th when I get back from fishing.

Went to Mastro's for Anne's birthday dinner last night so I ended up sleeping in.  However, we were woken up around 3:45am to a car honking it's horn a bunch of times in a random pattern (i.e. not an alarm).  I got pissed off got up (grabbed my baseball bat) and went outside to see what the problem was.  

Got out there and our neighbor 2 houses down was in her car having sex with some dude in the drivers seat and her back was hitting the horn.  I surprised them and pounded on the drivers side window and told them to knock it the hell off.  The horn stopped but 10 minutes later they started blasting music from their car.  At that point I just called the cops and 5 minutes later CPD's finest showed up and told them to go inside or they were going to jail.  Needless to say after drinking a little bit last night and being woken up I didn't get out of bed till 9.  Another item on my checklist of why I hate Chicago.

Quick ride this morning and then I need to head up to Milwaukee to meet with a client for lunch.  Tonight we are going to a private wine tasting event from a winery (Small Vines) we love from Sonoma.  They are inviting 10-15 people for a tasting with the head winemaker.  It is also Anne's birthday today.
