so close to pulling the plug

on riding today,

but can't really,

feeling compelled,

knowing it will help,

so much smashy needs to happen...

Looking at the mileage totals and everything and knowing tomorrow isn't a commute to work day (stay home with kid day) ...  maybe can make something happen tomorrow.

Possibly just go out and cue up the old 3x8min playlist and do some leg smashy intervals.

This probably is going to be the lightest week, although who knows what is going to happen this weekend. Working at the PVD location looks sketchy, i don't have a bench yet and the second stand really isn't ready to go either so one stand makes it tough. Not sure how that's going to resolve itself.

But, hey, lightest week? okay, I got some sort of okay and pretty consistent hill repeat 2 min high torque low cadence work on Monday, smackdown tuesday, recovery day wednesday and some 8 min smashy now?

Not bad. But dinner is going to be late. Or we're having leftovers (totally a serious possibility).

Also phone was dead when I got home. Massive miss-communication trying to pick my daughter up because my phone is having major issues with fucking everything if anything changes (like going off wireless or trying to unlock it or whatnot) so that raised the holy crap smashy level and got asked "can you just ride without it?" NO HOW WILL I STRAVA IT I CAN'T NOT HAVE RECORD BECAUSE I'M ADDICTED TO THE DATA AND IT AUTOMATICALLY REPORTS TO NATIONAL BIKE CHALLENGE AND IF I HAD A STAND ALONE GPS DEVICE THAT I COULD UPLOAD W/O NEEDING A COMPUTER (using phone would work) THEN I COULD JUST RIDE. I didn't say that, i just said, "not really".

okay - maybe there's enough power in it now, mobile data is the big drain and that's off nearly 100% of the time. Because yeah, what's the point of having a mobile device that's dead when you need it, might as well be able to turn it on if needed but only when needed. Or something.

Man i need a whole day in the saddle on the bike away from everything. Which I shouldn't if everything was awesome and all that. But things aren't bad, and spending a day on the bike to help, well does help in lots of ways.

Just would help if I could.

smashy time
