beat down but why?

i couldn't bring myself to ride the trainer last night so, after conferring with robin i decided to take the evening off and clean the main level of the house. we have house guests coming beginning tomorrow (for calvin's birthday party) so it is a nice chore to have off the list. i rode in this morning (lights a-blazing) and will take an extended route home tonight (thanks r). the problem is that i woke up feeling terrible. tired and achy - why does that always seem to happen when you take a day off from training? i had done workouts the previous 7 days and felt fine and one stinking day off and now i'm feeling like crapola. oh well, the beat goes on.

happy thursday.
