The short of it, I got quite a bit more activity than usual, but didn't eat super well. I didn't add up the points yet, it's probably only borderline not well. Other than that I've been riveted to this Texas filibuster: http://www.texastribune.org/session/831/live/ (the feed on the right).
Work was better, I didn't get as much new done as I wanted, but a lot of the things I was in the middle of yesterday came to a satisfying and easy conclusion. My friend that's helping me with fitness came over and helped me do some strengtheningish stretching exercises. That felt good. It was really early in the morning. That felt bad until I'd had sufficient caffeine. Bed very soon.
This evening I rode my bike around the neighborhood. This is really funny, but this is definitely the hilliest area I've ever lived in. I didn't even notice it was this hilly until this evening. So my bike riding was mostly because I didn't want to go out with my friend later this week and still be at the beginning stage of learning how to ride again! I can pretty much turn OK now, but I don't feel stable enough to take a hand off the handlebars to shift! So I'm stuck in kind of a hard gear. I only had to walk up one hill though, and that's because there was a stop sign at the very bottom of it so I couldn't get any momentum to get up. I may have run a few stop signs after that to avoid walking up again. That's when I realized I couldn't look over my shoulder very well, so I was terrified there was going to be a cop right behind me when I ran a four way stop that was obviously empty except for me kind of thing. I wondered about how much the ticket for that would be. Resolve to figure out one handed handlebars so I can shift...or possibly obtain a rear view mirror.
