stormdogAfter a week or so of spending a great deal of time on the couch, sleeping next to Danae, hugging stuffed animals, or eating chocolate and ice cream, I'm back to real life today. Which is good, because half my jeans are getting too tight at this point. It's definitely time to get back to following my daily task list and monitoring my food again.
Plus, this weekend is going to be full of adventure! I think I'm in a good enough state of mind to be ready for it.
On Saturday, I'm riding in World Naked Bike Ride: Chicago for the third time. Miriam is going to do body paint for me again, assuming it doesn't look like rain. I'm going to bike to downtown from Evanston, do the ride, and then bike back. Then, on Sunday, I'm riding a forty mile route for Tour de Cure, as a fundraiser to fight diabetes and find a cure! (You still have time to donate!) I expect to get five or six hours of sleep that night because check in is at 8:30 AM in Aurora.
Today, I drove up to my parents' place in Kenosha, where I picked up the MonkeyLectric lights from my other bike that I want with me for the naked ride. Since I was there, I did my laundry and took their dog, Wonka, on a walk to Lake Michigan and back. Then I brushed him out in the side yard. Drive-by dog grooming! I picked up a few staples at Woodman's, too. So many good reasons to go to Kenosha, even when I don't get to see people there I care about, which is the best reason of them all.
