I got back on the bike today! God, did it feel good. I got to school in 15 minutes, rather than the hour I need to allow when on public transportation. Not to mention the "wheeeeeeeee!" factor of powering my own self along on the roads, and being able to zip along lines and lines of cars stuck in traffic.
It was 34 degrees when I left the house, so I bundled up good - knowing that the wind chill of the bike would make it even colder. I over did it. I didn't need the liner in my winter coat. I probably did need my gloves and I know I needed my ear warmer, but I did not need my face-muffler. It was really nice out.
Then I got to school, dumped half my shit in my locker and went to the gym. I sweat buckets there, and now am trying to devour Securities Regulation reading, since I spent my entire weekend being a mother, daughter and wife, and but for 1.5 hours last night, I didn't read all weekend. And I rushed through last night's reading, so that Beloved and I could head into the new week all invigorated and such -- if you catch my drift ;) It was well worth it: I was thrice invigorated, lucky gal that I am.Labels: bicycle, exercise, sex, weekends |
