drugged
i could not get out the door this morning. tuesdays are like a second monday for me since the rest of my family doesn't have a real monday. i woke up feeling poorly but i rallied and managed to ride in this morning. i still feel like crap but at least i'm getting my riding in.
we had a very tasty curry dish last night but boy does curry make the house stink. even though the forecast calls for a cool day i had to open the windows to let it air out - good thing oliver has a fur coat. i think the next time we make it we should use the side burner on the propane grill outside.
i am in a real funk at work. it used to be i would dream of finding a new job that utilizes my intelligence and strengths better but now i just dream about not working at all. or starting my own small business. residential window cleaning has its appeal to me but i would have to get over the fact that my bs/ms would effectively go unused. then again, it's not like i'm using them that much right now. maybe i could start small, try to get a few houses and just schedule them for a day that i take pto. then the income would be bonus and we would be able to take some tax benefits but there would be low risk if it didn't work out. the overhead is small (i have most of the equipment) and i am quite skilled at it (it isn't splitting atoms but there is some skill that i was able to develop over the 5 years i did it in college). it wouldn't be glamorous but it would be mine. maybe some day....
anyway, back to reality. last weeks training:
m: 0
t: 2:00 (commute/road ride)
w: 1:15 (commute)
r: 0:50 (commute)
f: 0:45 (run, hawk's landing loop)
s: 1:45 (ss, military ridge/badger prairie/fitchburg 'trails')
n: 0
total: 6:45
did a trail run last night and felt amazing. i really am feeling fit these days - motivation to keep plugging away.
happy tuesday.
