weekend recap v3.24

Friday night I decided to go to a show at FUBAR. It was on the lounge side and fairly well attended. Of all the dudes there, the only people I spoke to were Ron, Lew, and Daren.

Saturday I went out on Ex-Girlfriend for 2;45, pedaling JUST under 40 miles. Was a pretty bad idea, looking back, because I had no snacks/sugar/salt, just my water bottle and a phone and wallet in my gear bag. I went to Old Valmeyer via Levee Rd to B to 156. Usually I cruise along at just around 20mph, but on this trip I got ol' girl up to 30.2 mph for a quick burst on some flat terrain. Made it there in just about an hour.

Then I turned to head home and was hit with brutal head and cross winds. It was not enjoyable. I was averaging more around 13mph on the way home. And I was tired. But I just slowly made my way. I truly enjoy being on my bike, looking at the terrain, and organizing my thoughts. I was pretty wrecked when I got home, but overall, a successful outing.

Decided to go to a show on Saturday night. 'Dawgs played at Plush. A lot of their friends came out, and in general, the show was well attended, which is awesome because that venue is kinda huge. I drank a bunch of Stag in a can. Lars and the rest of the band wore suits for their oldies revue set, and it suited them well (I'm not sorry!) I watched three bands then left just after midnight because I was anxious to eat the last piece of pizza I knew was in the fridge before my date with my pillow.

Woke up and it's snowing balls, but weirdly not sticking to the concrete. I've been pretty lazy all day, which is fine. I have some clothes in the dryer for work this week. I'm going house viewing on Friday; fingers crosses that something will pan out. Other than that, nothing much to report.

I do have pics from the ride and also of the snow today. But I don't feel like spending the time to upload. Here's a video. I kinda love this song right now.
