picking up the pieces
man, this weekend blew (as far as weekends go).
first, the simple act of painting a small bedroom couldn't have been more complicated. our stupid ceilings don't paint well, so that required 3 coats (the first taking me until close to midnight on friday). the walls required 2 coats which meant the task of painting bled into sunday. it looks good now but it was a royal pain that had me in a fowl mood for most of the weekend (worsened when i thought about folks racing at ore to shore).
second, my computer finally crumbled to that which is vista. i couldn't log in, i tried numerous things, and finally resorted to restoring to factory settings which in the process meant i lost all my files. now i need to go into the e-file exchange for uw and get all my school stuff back before i lose access. the process of doing this took the better part of sunday which meant i spent nearly zero time on my internship. damn.
finally, between painting and computer issues (compounded by storms when i could go riding), i managed only 1 measly run on friday and the same on sunday. i am enjoying running right now but i have impending bike races with not enough of that currency in the bank. oh well.
robin and i have a pact for the week...this one is going to be better.
i sure hope so.
happy monday.
