back on the (wheel) hoss

Sorry to disappear. I was sick for nearly three weeks. I'm not sure I'm quite back yet, so I'm pushing that envelope. I rode my bike in this morning and did a light workout with weights. Felt OK, not great. I'm not looking forward to the ride home, but at least it's looking sunny and warmish out there.

I was a complete basketcase last week. Tired, depressed, ugly, sick, and flabby. Mostly depressed. I couldn't really get enthused enough to do anything. I blame the lack of endorphins that I'm used to getting with my regular exercise program. But, I went out yesterday for an hour-long walk, and actually accomplished stuff this weekend (mostly that winter-to-spring clothes-closet transition). And two movies ("Inside Man" (a Spike Lee joint) and "Friends with Money" (a depressing story of a bunch of dysfunctionals, much like the director's other movie "Lovely and Amazing" which I like to call "Crazy and Delicious")). (See, you can tell I'm feeling better by the proliferation of parenthetical remarks.)
