buh-errrrr
alright i have to make this quick, because i'm in the middle of cleaning for my friend ani (whom some of you met in san diego) who's coming into town tomorrow for our friend's wedding..
and my place is a wreck, but...
real quick...
18.something miles... 15.8 avg pace... 5 loops around the downtown airport!
hollah. it was a rockin good time, and, as always, a learning experience...
today's lesson?!
the helmet does nothing for keeping your head warm in chilly weather. i feel as though someone should have mentioned this to me, because i.... SERIOUSLY, was cold.
resulting in a lot of sneezing and sniffling this evening so i'm not thrilled about that but.. my hammys are feeling the ride, and i call that a success.
but i'm for reals gunna have to figure out that whole biking in the cold situation, it weren't purty.
but with that, i'm outta here. as mentioned above, i've got ani (Cali Girl) into town tomorrow, dinner with the bride, hallmark girl and her tomorrow evening.. group viewing of Greys Anatomy thursday (priorities people. priorities) and wedding FRIDAY!
(yes. friday.
i know, i know... but yes. it just is.)
so, i bid you all a fabulous week and.. i'll be back this weekend to report on any and all revelry that is had between now and then! m'kay? m'kay!
goooooOOOO WEDDING SEASON!
*grin and bear it. grin and bear it. drink much wine. grin and bear it*
high fives, people. high fives!

The solution to all of your problems?
A stationary bike. Indoors. In a nice warm room (with a fan, of course). With a TV directly in front of you.
Not nearly as fabulous as actually being outside...but warm, nonetheless :)
Have fun at the weddin'!

Hope you catch the bouquet!

Headsweats skull caps are awesome under your helmet, good down to around 40 degrees:

Below that you need a wool skullcap and/or earwarmers. Sorry if nobody already told you, but you will need to spend about a month's salary on cycling clothes to survive the winter...

Where are you that its so cold?
Posted by: Jessica | September 20, 2006 3:13 PM
It's cold here too. I know where you are coming from.
I got married (the 2nd time) on Friday. It was CHEAPER and had more room to get the location I wanted. Plus less stress!
Have fun!

Yeah Grey's Anatomy. I can't wait to see what happens. :-)
Enjoy having Ani in town. I'm sure there will be plenty of entertaining stories about the week.

Yippee Grey's Anatomy!
I'm having girlfriends over too to watch the McDreamy premiere.

grin and bear it.
let me know if when the minister says 'or forever hold your peace' if everyone in the church turns around and looks at you...
until, you give a little wave of the hand and a 'm'kay, keep goin'

Yes. Gray's will save you from the joys of wedding season. I prescribe lots and lots of it.
Have fun tonight at the wedding and with Ani in town!
