4h 00m

I saw elliot; he was on an epic date with his new girlfriend. They were going to the lake to lay out and rub exotic oils on each other.
At hour 3, someone mentioned that everything fell out of my bike bag. I stopped short with no hand signal and caused a crash. I went down, but I have no scrapes, not sure how that happened. The other guy didn't fare as well. We all decided to cut the ride and run short.

I didn't have a gps so I tagged along with someone who only wanted to do 30:00.

It was sunny and warm, but not too hot. All in all, I give it an A-.

F you, Congress. That is a BIG pay cut next year. This is NOT cool.

I was at the dentist yesterday, and the hygenist pulls out a copy of New Times. "That was me 10 years ago," she says. Then she tells me she wants to get back into that shape, and she's training for PF Changs half marathon. I fully support her getting back into this shape.

It's funny to think that yesterday was the easiest of the next 5 weekends. I'm so screwed.
