You would think that a Budhist would believe in Budha and not Christ, but my mom, a self proclaimed Budhist recently asked me if I thought it would be ok for her to start attending Mass and just sitting in the back to pray. It was kind of an odd conversation since I didn't think you could believe in both but whatever.

My brain doesn't even need to fry to wander. I call it "shiny ball" syndrome and it happens all the time. I had a really deeply theological conversation with myself about what purgatory might actually be but then the next ride I perfect my buttercream frosting recipe and then I might just spend my rides taking random roads to see how many cows I can count before I get home. It nice to just let my mind wander.

Mph, we have wind here to contend with. It's amazing how just 15 miles inland where I lived for a few years when I moved home has soooo much less wind! It's hillier so I got a great work out, but I never had to contend with the wind I have now being right on lake erie. On a perfect day with next to no wind I'll be cruising around 17-19 mph, but that damn wind kicks up and I'm luck to hover around 14.
