Another 'Not Too Shabby' Kinda Day...

[mrlich]

"Wow, way to drum up a ton of enthusiasm there big guy."

"Piss off."

"That's more like it."

"Mmm."

As my legs lock up under my desk because they were busy atrophy-ing before I made them move for a change, I thought that I would review the day thus far. (Side note: would that be 'undergoing the process of atrophy'? Or maybe atrophiing? drjohn , I'm looking at you here bud...).

Thus far:
1. Productive Day at Wukr: Nothing amazing, but I got to put out some fires and make some people happy and even (shock! gasp! the horror!) possibly improve a process or two. Hey - I'm not too hard to please. I just like to see improvement.

2. A (Brief) Ride: I'm no cyclist. Hell, my body hardly seems to know how to get out of its own way these days. It's because of this that I'm actually pretty happy with the fact that I was able to handle the 5 mile ride I took tonight. I need to get better (and further) by the end of the week if I hope to be able to do anything like the 75 miles we are planning to cover, but I'm beginning to think that it's doable. It does feel good to be moving again. Makes me miss my motorcycle that much more though. ;)

Now, I think that I will work on some artwork.

Wow, we really are rubbing off on each other. You're doing that whole 'having a full hypothetical conversation with yourself' thing. Nice!

Sounds like a good day, and I'm glad to hear you got on the bike! Dthee!

I forgot to tell you the other day: Carol's bike route is 9 miles, and goeth thusly:

R on Marsh

R on Silverside

Silverside alllll the way to Shipley

R on Shipley

Shipley to Naamans (you'll be near the movie theater/TJ's entrance)

R on Naamans

R on Marsh

R at home.

This ride is swell because it's a nice combo of flats and hills, it's all right turns, and there are bike lanes all the way (or wide shoulders).

la la!

"there are bike lanes all the way (or wide shoulders)"

This is key. I'm glad to hear that's the case. I was thinking that my route wasn't too bad in that department, though there are a couple of hairy spots (intersections) around the Silverside intersection. I'll have to try her route tomorrow!

Is that a new icon? I don't think that I've seen it before.

I love riding my bike now. It's fun AND I'm doing something good for me. I'm even getting better at turns (my first outing this year resulted in a really nasty owie on my leg, due to bad turning).

Atrophy is what you get after you cross the finish line.
