back in the saddle!
14 Aug 2008 | General
I got sign off from the doc today to get back on the bike! I know I sound like a total bike nerd. But it’s something I’ve really started to enjoy in the last few years. And I’m no gym guy. So the lack of activity gets me feeling sluggish. And being dependent on the gas guzzler for the work commute is also lame. But I’m back in the saddle! Let’s see how well I transition after not riding for 10 weeks.
*Update: Slipped out for a lunch ride. Really hot and I’m really out of shape. But so good to be riding. I’ll sleep well tonight.
And if you haven’t yet, check out the band The Republic Tigers (via Brent). Something kind of late 80′s/Tears for Fears about them that I really enjoy. And speaking of this, I’ve noticed my musical taste solidifying. Not that I don’t like new bands. I’m constantly finding new music that’s top notch. But my scope for bands outside my preferences is narrowing. But I’m wondering if we go through seasons where we seek more change than others?

That band rules. i think we go through seasons but certain preferences definately stick with us. its a beautiful thing.

Hey I lost all things Josh. I remembered your sight though. Drop me a line. I don’t have your email or cell # anymore. Maybe you are pushing me away. These could be sad days indeed!
