Long day

realized why i was so slow from 6pm until 7pm... i'd been working more or less since 8am. sure i took a break to race to the school and gather 4 girls, get them some snacks, changed, homework done and then off to ballet... but that's not exactly sitting on your ass, very much akin to working.

Then home and make dinner.

Here it is only about 30 min ago did I actually slow down much more than for a few minutes.

And not once have I ridden my bike since Sunday morning. And that ride wass woefully short. Oh well.

My itch to ride has been scratched by the fact that I have the images printed for my show. With luck things might come together soon. Man I hope so. It would be awesome.

Just tired. Worn down. Tired like I am ready for a second pot of coffee at 3pm. Tired wondering if they make a 20 cup machine to replace the 10 cupper i've got in the office.

Thinking that with everything that has to happen tomorrow I should really be asleep right now. Need to D/L the brain. Empty the contents.

And obviously, really not much in there, sur-prize sur-prize sur-prize.

All that said i survived the week but, if i was thinking, I would have blocked 90 minutes in the middle of the day for a ride at least three days this week. When i was scheduling two weeks ago this was just this week, not anything different than any other week. Oops. I mean it was this week then I just didn't make the connection when i filled it with trainings and what not every day.

I'll get on the bike. I do miss them. I never did have time to get the trainer cobbled together so I could ride inside. Oh well. Not that I would have had the time or energy to either get up at 4:30am or pedal meaningfully after 10pm... But despite what it sounds like, I am not complaining. It is all good and I'm accepting it. just a detached reflection and remarking of the current situation.

Rest weeks are good right? now I can go into next week as a ramp up high intensity into the 2nd, then load be fully loaded with enough base for the 10th, and wind up into the 17th. Maybe. Shit. I should get the Klein back in order. It was working when I hung it up, the drive train will be fine for a few races, right? Sure. Racing on known worn chains has never backfired on me before (#sarcasm btw).
