I look like I have conjunctivitis. My eye has been red for the past two days - for TWO DAYS I have been walking around with a bright red, watering eye. Not like that's not the most attractive thing I've ever seen in my life.
I was sent home an hour early from work because my boss said it hurt to look at it and it scared the customers. Gee whiz, thanks for the support Brooke! Actually that was probably a blessing because it's now 1 am and I'm still writing about, you guessed it, China currency policy.
...but the whole 1 am thing is probably because I can't concentrate and, well, I'm blogging.
So in addition to the fact that I got a sick cycling burn on my shoulder that would put an Irishmen in the Caribbean to shame and my water bottle had a hint of rasberry vodka/Tropicana strawberry mango taste to it because a poor decision on my part last week, my cycle today was sub-par.
For some reason I'm STILL sore from cycling with Kipp over the weekend (but maybe that's partly because I cycled five days in a row?) Truth be told he DID push my pace, on Comm ave my odometer read 24 at one point - say whatttt??? I really need to cycle with him more often, he's going to make me next Christie Wellington (dream big, kate, dream big.)
But today not only did I have to PULL the ENTIRE time (**Ahem.**) but my quads were literally like jello - I think I was once clocked at going 9 mph on an uphill? Colin would be ashamed. But I did have some nice company to distract me from my killing calves and murderous muscles ***Side note: when used appropriately, alliterations can be quite cute =)
But something amazing happened when I got back from work - the Easter Bunny came!!! And by Easter Bunny I mean one of the most wonderful people in the entire world, my ridiculously fabulous friend Davis, put a box of candy outside my door! You couldn't wipe the smile off my face for anything :) I just love my friends, how do people this awesome even exist? And even more, how did I find them? Davis, you are one in a million.
So I have to be at the Harvard lab in nine hours. Damn.
Love love love,
me
