My new toy has been ordered. Wheee! I like new geek toys.
Heading out to Palm Springs this afternoon (with Erin, Patrick, Andrew, Tree, David, Bjorn, Dave, and lots of other bikers) for the Tour de Palm Springs. It will be my first century. I've heard mixed reviews of it, but it should be fun since it will be with people I like.
I'm still not feeling 100%, but I'm not feeling as craptacular as I did earlier this week. And I have lots of cough/cold drugs with me. And sunscreen, 'cause apparently one of the drugs makes you really susceptable to getting burned.
My foot kinda hurts. A lot. During kempo this morning we were doing a drill where you deflect a kick to your groin with a kick, and then you kick them in the groin. Well my partner had shoes on, I always train barefoot, and we weren't supposed to look at the kick (bad idea 'cause if you look down you'll get punched). So my kick to deflect his kick kinda instead had my big toe mate with his shoe. Ouch. Kinda bruised and sore now, but mostly only with flexing my toes really far back, so riding shouldn't be too bad. I really need to stop trying to be like Holly... as much as I do love her, yes, it does appear pretty bad for my health.
