My day's better, too! I dug up my Glass Lizard, Russell Junior, because we hadn't seen him in a long time- which is not unusual, he lives underground. Still, we worry when we _never_ see him. He is thriving!
My tortoise has dug his first real burrow! I am so proud of him! And the box turtle is sitting comfortably in tortoise's abandoned cardboard box, atop a pile of cool, damp, freshly-dug soil.
But- a turn for the worse- BF ate the lo mein leftovers I had planned on for dinner.
And then, a turn for the better! I managed to DL the manual for my cyclocomputer which I conveniently locked by accident before I could zero it for day two of my ride- so I had inaccurate mile markers for the whole ride, (and then lost my cue sheet halfway through, anyway- but the course was superbly marked- never needed the cue sheet anyway) plus couldn't get my average speed or time for the second day. It turns out, I rode a 6:40 Century the first, flat, rainy day, and a 6:20 the second, hot hilly day! I am very pleased. I did get to draft in some fast groups the second day, though.
And my DVD of "Shop Girl" arrived today!
