It's a glorious almost-summer day in the DC area, so I took the dogs for a nice walk in the park and then rode the Xtracycle 10 miles up the trail to get a haircut. Then I stopped at the Asian market and loaded up with tons of fruit and vegetables and tofu and rode the trail back home...and I even made it fully loaded up the huge hill at the end!

Now it's off to the LBS to get a new helmet, since mine is being held together with zip ties after a near-disastrous fall off my front steps a couple of days ago, which resulted in a critical part of the helmet getting lost in the weeds. Note to self: clean the weeds out of the flower bed.

(Oh, and I'm so excited. This morning I got a ticket to see Bill Maher at the end of May. 13 rows back, right in the middle. Score!)
