saturday: punctured, sail fail, but undefeated/happy.

after a 15-mile riverside ride, my bike, despite its long-punctured tire, made it to evanston.
"i'm here!"

the catalyst for the ride was to go sailing. though the lack of wind squashed those plans.
people tanning, not sailing

a circuitous route back to logan followed. we tried to find the lakeshore bike trail; going east, going west, east, back west, then east again for nearly half an hour. grilled and bourbon-marinated chuck roast awaited (though chuck is not the best cut to grill).

"pair me with butter & garlic potatoes, a spring salad with grilled mushrooms and bleu cheese, and beer." "ok"

bad conversationalist

to day/night

  • where is the woman in honor?
  • he's wearing the red dress
  • there's uh, um, a meteor shower...tonight... i, um, saw it on the news.

with age comes the inability to talk properly.

juice and crackers

learned yesterday after giving blood:
at least six pints are needed for a transfusion
90/50 blood pressure (mine, salt aversion) is the lowest threshold you can have to donate
