day 2
up early this morning, body awoke me at 6.45 yelling at me GO PEE NOW! cat yelling at me STAY HERE OR I WILL GROWL. cat growl, i pee. body trumps cat in these instances.
-------
i biked to work this morning, this pacific northwest sunny morning. oh, i think about a future most likely without the pacific northwest and my heart breaks. but then i remind myself, i can retire here, after going out and making big bucks outside the pacnw. yeah, i'll come back, if i leave. i'll come back.
----------
what did i think about on my way to work this morning? biking. i thought.. hmm.. so many people tell me that they are chickens and won't bike in traffic, while i, on the other hand, don't think twice about biking in traffic. hmm, being the former whitewater kayaker that i am, i have a thing for adrenaline, or, it takes a lot to scare me.
for dad
class I biking: on the bike paths.
class II: in a bike lane on a non busy street, or on a very non busy street down the middle, or a semi-busy street on the sidewalk.
class III: on a non-busy street w/o a bike lane on the side of traffic with helmet on head, or a semi-busy street with a bike lane, or a busy street on the sidewalk.
class IV: a busy street with a bike lane, or semi-busy street w/o a bike lane
class V: a very busy street w/o a bike lane.
class VI: I-5, the highway. thats just stupid.
me? i prefer class III - IV biking. unless i'm tired or in the mood to do some serious reflection, then give me some class I - II biking.
----------
long day. gonna miss my soap to go to a grant meeting for jnw instead. must get to work.
