wrapped inside my ribs
i have made pretty great strides in staying calm about things i cannot control. there was a day where i would get so upset about things (drivers, work stuff, etc.) that i would literally make myself sick. but i've calmed down - i contribute it to getting older/wiser (although the latter is arguable) plus after seeing your child as sick as calvin was you have a whole new perspective on life and someone not using their turn signal or a new work policy really doesn't seem all that bad anymore.
yesterday, i could feel some anger bubbling in my stomach like i haven't for awhile. it was a perfect storm of analytical difficulties, complicated clients, annoyances of managing people and one of my biggest pet peeves - the human resources department. it all happened as i was about to leave which delayed my departure which meant i couldn't extend my ride home which made me more mad. i still feel some residual this morning. i need to get over it. these things really don't matter in the big scheme of things but, for some reason it is still bother me.
what i need is a good weekend and luckily, that starts in a few hours. i'm hoping to get some riding in - maybe a road jaunt tomorrow and then perhaps a trip to the tunnel with cal on sunday - barring rain i suppose. this will be our first weekend home for awhile so i think going out for breakfast tomorrow morning should also be on the list.
i've been thinking about fat tire a lot lately. as of right now i'm thinking i'm going to opt out and focus on the two days of usgp the following weekend. the fat tire weekend is one that i am infatuated with but maybe i should take this as a sign that i should save our $500+ it costs for the weekend and do something else instead.
happy friday.
