Waiting for the Worms

Just in case anyone is interested...

Waiting.  Waiting to see if I feel better.  Waiting to pack for one or two or none races.

Avoiding.  The Pie is sick with something that Nia had last week.  Trying to lose weight and get ready for a very loaded end of May with "something" going around?  No bueno.  Stuffing my face and dodging sneezes and coughs.

Hoping.  Hoping that a key piece of equipment (at least that's what I'm telling myself) gets here before the Trans-Sylvania Epic.  Hoping that by the end of next week, I feel like I did last week... which was pretty okay.

Grasping.  Mostly at straws.

Floundering.  At blogging mostly.  Seems that with other things occupying my mind, nothing is coming out of my brain other than angst and packing lists and logistics and... a signal to my mouth that tells it to produce "meh" sounds every fifteen seconds.

And before anyone suggests it, I've already tried a liberal application of Peanut M&M's and Hop Hunter in an effort to make it all go away.  It's not not worked before, so...

I gotta make the call before 6:00PM tomorrow as to what to do this weekend.  I'd have to feel a lot worse to avoid both races.  Pretty sure I can pull a marginal performance at the 55.5K straight outta my ass even if I feel like two asses, which is one less ass than I feel like right now.


It's probably just a brain cloud.



Don't watch more than fifteen seconds of that. Not the best moments of Joe.

What is the major equipment - gears? More carbon? More bling? Don't leave us hanging.....what is the next 47 day experiment.

Instead of avoiding your family constantly like you seem to have a knack for, maybe you could see what there is to do that you could help with. There is so much "me, me, me" in your life, maybe you could think about something other than yourself and your personal agenda.

Pretty much the only reason I hold down a job.

it ain't easy, racing... but, it sure does leave good stains on the brain.
Try marijuana! it cures everything!

hopefully everyone gets well soon in your household.
take honey! I used to get sick all the time, then I turned to honey...

as for worms, use a dewormer... I just spent last evening picking worms out of my dog's ass.

The only time I run away from my wife is when she brings home a tetanus shot...

THAT REALLY HAPPENED.

It is so obvious that your wife is posting.
