So, I have to admit, I got completely caught up in the Tour de France. I was flipping through channels a few weeks ago and came across the Lance Chronicles the day before the Tour, and my TV stayed on the same channel for three weeks. I had never watched bike racing before, and I was completely amazed by the race and racers. These guys must have such a capacity to ignore pain. True masochists. There is not another sport that requires giving your all for 6-8 hours a day for 3 weeks straight. I never knew how much cycling was a team sport, either. One person takes all the glory, but their team really makes or breaks whether they are going to make it to the podium. Anyway, I thought it was fascinating and thought I would share.

Somehow, I lost a day this week. I realized last night when talking to my mom that indeed, it was really Wednesday, not Tuesday. In fact, I argued with her for a few minutes about it until I could check a calendar. So, where did Monday go, because I lost it!

So, I'm in a rush now to prepare for this weekend. I still have to go grocery shopping and pack all my gear for camping, and do a bunch of other stuff. Well, I better get my butt in gear, huh?
