Wedding Blog: BD**2 - 157

Quick entry today. Just finished a customer audit, and have work to catch up on.

We blew off the dance class last night. GW is still not feeling that great, and isn't that enthusiastic on the swing dance anyway. We thought we were signing up for more standard ballroom dance lessons. I'll work on finding another class that's more to our liking, and on staying healthy enough to complete it.

BD called GW to say she's having a good time. (See? GW gets the fun calls, and I get the technical calls. Had something gone wrong with the flight or the hotel, guess who would have gotten that call?). The lights on the Strip were "interesting", but the view from the room is a roof and the mountains in the distance. Eh, they aren't there for the view. We told her to play a few slots and try to win a jackpot or two.

We've booked a hotel block near the venue, and I was trying to find a cheaper hotel in the area. No such luck. Since it's prime vacation season there, they're all about the same price. We'll let people know about the block of rooms, but will suggest some of the others in the area in case they don't care about staying all together.

Our elliptical broke this morning, or at least threw a gasket. A spacer dropped off one of the arm connections to the flywheel. It might have been loose for a while, and been the source of the occasional clicking we heard. I need to check it tonight to see if we can use it while we wait for the repair part and repair technician. I hope so. The weather for the weekend is going to be too nasty for outside walks or other physical activity.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

That's sorta like what happened to my first elliptical.

The solder actually broke, so it took way too long to fix.

I hope yours is easy to fix and that you can use it without the arm part.
