venus is seen in the western sky. clouds surround three corners of it. and with a peak to the left i watch another beautiful night come to form. patrick and i have begun night riding. around eight or later, we go out and ride to remove any unnecessary energies. the first night i did this i felt worn out after riding, yet tonight i felt rested and ready to sleep. i am off my medication and while slightly sore on the hip, felling much better as a whole. i am going to wait and see how i fell in another day. then i will know wether to refill or to stay off until my next talk with doctor capello. off the subject of drugs, the ride was perfect, and just want i needed to wear off a little piece of me...although i could go out for another dose.

jennifer bought her new car today...or 1999 grand am. i am happy for her, and hope she can stay happy. i am really concerned for her long term happiness, the goods that really matter. hopefully things click in for her. that would be wonderful.

i'm tired. good night.

sun burnt wednesday

this morning i woak up very peacefully, with a light breeze comming right in front of my head, everything seemed to be right. yet as i sat up out of bed for the day, i felt it. at first lightly, but then later in the shower heavier. sunburn on my arms and legs, from the one hour bicycle ride i had the day before. while with each hour the tension is lighter and ligher, i am still bothered at how just one hour outside (plus the thirty minutes here and there later) could leave such a mark. i now have a sock line, and had not worn socks for several weeks before ward except for that hour ride, and have a small cut from where dad half wacked a limb at me. today that began bledding, and didn't make me happy.

yet with the light touch of sun, i am still happy for the day i have had. just hopefully the touch of red doens't get to me any more!



it's refreshing, though, to hear your voice and see your smile. i don't feel at all as though we've had to make a gigantic leap from text to flesh. it's more like you are an old friend who has come back around. -christine

this morning a light breeze breathed into my corner room, and with a slow awakening i realized that i was being talked to. spring came through the window and told me to come out and play, to bask in the sunlight and to fell the warm air on my skin. spring was excited, and jumpy, like a puppy standing in front of the porch screen each morning for you. so with the recomendation i went.

i had still not greesed my bicycle, and nor for the moment did i want to, so i took my helment and went along my way. at first the chain on the crankset brought a off sound tune, but eventually faded away. at the end of the lane i looked, and felt for the wind, and so i made the decesion to ride with it, and ride against it on the way back. the air felt great on my back, and the road moved so peacefully. for several miles i was on course and on time, and then i began to ride back. suddenly a huge gust of wind paralized my movement and stopped me in my tracks. i slowly began to go, and slowly rode back from the small town i encounted back home. my legs were sore, and my mind was weak, but i kept moiving along. at one of the last turns i was thought to be home free, until i meet several dogs. when i was younger these two houses each had a dog, trained, violent, and ready to chase. they were slow, and fun to play with. however today i was the one riding into the wind, and the dogs saw me from a half mile comming. without a moment to spare i retreated, and then rushed forward. speed kicked up and for the moment the wind seemed to calm down. one dog ran up against me, and kept up for over a mile. along the way three others came in my direction, ready and screaming. yet at the end the four retreated (bad dog four...?) and i came out vicrotious. the rest of the way back was once again windy, yet in the end home came once again.

spring took me for a ride, one greater than expected. thank you spring.

internet explorer sucks.

after three lock ups in the attempt to edit this blog i gave up and went to mozilla.

this weekend i rediscovered my bicycle, and have been in love ever since. saturday afternoon several of us went out to the muddy tracks of liberty mills. i am scared to death of trails, because i am a chicken and that i don't particularally want to fall on my face covered in mud. at least not today. yet as we rode around to my mind came the idea of riding again, and how i could ride to classes and live the dream that i had always wanted to, and how much of a reality it could be. so sunday afternoon i spend several hours tearing apart my bicycle and rebuilding it, cleaning it up and preparing it for the next serveral weeks and eventually the summer. working on the bike alone brought back kind memoires, and then today i began my ride. at first just getting to class was rough, but then once the sun went down, and the first star came out, all the wind seemed to disapear, and i rode several miles enjoying the beautiful weather. it was a special moment.

i think that this summer i am going to begin riding nights. prepare my bicycle with the proper equipment and after work each night ride for several hours. it would be great to once again get in good shape and keep with the hobby that always keeps me moving. there is something about a warm summer night that touches me, having several wonderful experiences with the jeep top down on warm june and july nights i know i could enjoy that the same on a bicycle riding away.

i bought a mouse this weekend. i know i know that sounds extremely geeky, yet after years of messing with my 1996 two dollar mouse i thought it was time to move on. now i can do lots of funky stuff that i could only dream of earlier. a little boy with a new gadget, how cute hun?

speaking of hun i have got to get jen out on a ride sometime, it would be fansastic. he he he
