owww, my ass

hoo boy. I think I broke myself from the waist down. My legs are solid slabs of well-punished muscle. And man, does that feel good. I must be in slightly better shape than I thought - two years ago 20 miles had me in ice for a night and generally sobbing for three days. Now I think I'll be good by tomorrow night.

I went 23 miles today - basically from home all the way to the end of the Norwottock trail and back. No wonder my hips feel a bit like they're going to fall out of their sockets. Can't wait until sundart gets a bike - it looks like there are some pretty hiking trails at the end of the trail.

Note to self: the trick to making lemon-lime powerade actually taste good rather than like well-sugared monkeybutt is to get really fucking thirsty first. I need a water bottle thingie on my bike. feh. But it's good to know there's a vending machine in the back of Pete's Drive-In.

I wonder - if I kept following the tracks at the end of the trail, would I eventually get to gossamer_gull's? Must find out sometime.

Such a gorgeous day. Glad I went and soaked up some sun.

Came home, chatted with beatgoddess for a bit, found that inle_rah, gossamer_gull, and quite possibly dionethoughts had come over and kidnapped my girlfriend. :) I think they went to the Bizarre Bazaar, which I had forgotten about. Ah well. Hope they're having fun. There's always next year.

Hot shower now. Then stuff face more. Holy crap, I'm hungry.

update... um... That's never happened before... I looked into the mirror just before I got in the shower and my face was completely covered in salt deposits. Bizarre...

Yes, dionethoughts was among our number. Yes we had fun.

As for the Rail Trail, I know that it runs directly behind my aunt and uncle's house in Belchertown. That's about a mile from where I live: I believe we walked to/by their house on one of our late-night excursions.

Traitor! I had nothing to do with it. I was an innocent bystander. I pet the cat, but that was as far as it goes!
