Dear So and So

[Owlie]

Don't anyone fall off their bikes today, but I actually sat on my trainer for 40 minutes! Who knows, maybe I'll come back from the dark side of tennis and ride my bike a bit more this year?

But did you actually pedal?

Crankin,
I rode today too, and I was surprised to see green grass in places. And robins.

Dear woodchuck:
You nearly made me fall off my bike. Also, staring at me was not going to make me go away. I wasn't planning on sticking around anyway. (PS: Tell your relatives to stop eating my parents' tomatoes.)

Dear adorable little gray kitten:
The middle of the bike trail is not a good place for you. Hopefully you have a home. If not, I hope you find one. Stay safe, little guy.

Dear woodchuck:

Dear Owlie,

That's weird. There's a very distinct geographical boundary between where they're called "woodchucks" and where they're called "groundhogs," but I seriously thought all of Ohio was squarely in "groundhog" territory. Whoa. I learned something today, but I'm not sure what it is.

Dear Self,

Go to bed and quit worrying so much. Also get on your bike tomorrow. It's nice outside.

So go to bed so you can ride your bike tomorrow.

Dear self,

Quit eating the bad stuff and get back on track. Two months is a long time to be on someone's program, but being satisfied with the results thus far is no reason to stop. You're only a third of the way to your goal weight.

Solution: send me the bad stuff!

Women actually do like colors other than pink and white.

WORD!! I miss the days when you couldn't tell a women's shoe from a men's shoe except for the size. My solution is to ride with my shoes in all kinds of crap until the white and baby blue have turned some kind of icky unidentifiable color that looks nowhere near feminine.

Hey, alexis? You have a really cool blog. I like

Interesting observation on the juicing color mixing.

After having his toes actually *burned* by wearing black shoes on a 90+ degree ride my hubby would kill to be able to get some white shoes.... (he'd probably even wear pink ones)

Dear brain:
Stop hurting. There is more math to learn.

three words, keene biking sandals.

My almost all year around biking shoes unless it is pouring down rain, then I wear shimano hard toes. I ride all summer in 90 + temps and have never had hot toes. Plus they are not pink or white.

I wanted a pair so badly (I rode in my regular Keens before I went clipless), but as it turns out a I need a stiff sole, and these are apparently quite flexible.

Thanks, lph and Roxy! Always nice to know someone likes reading my scribblings. Roxy, the juicing thing is visually fascinating. I suspect that I juice partly to be entertained by the results of tossing random produce into the juicer, one of these days, I'm tossing a chili in there to see what happens.

[marni]

if you are in a juicing chili mood, mix a bit of smoked ancho or poblano (New Mexican style chili) in with mango and a touch of pineapple. Nom nom.

Oh man does that sound good!
