There was a lightin' bug chilling on my windshield today while on the highway (I could see his/her little head starting to flair up as soon as I increased my speed, so I pulled over before s/he was decapitated in front of my eyes) and while scooping Larasia (that's what I named it) up I almost got hit by a driver who was swerving off the road. I have never been that close to getting hit by a car, I nervously laughed so I would remember to breathe and silently cursed karma under my breath as I got back into my car... the moment I did a tennis racquet came flying out the back of a truck and hit my window.
My window is fine and I just added a new (yet old; wooden) addition to my racquet collection. hey hey. Still biZarre eh?
hahah hmm... I went on a bicycling journey yesterday. After 9465487 miles (maybe I'm exaggerating this... a bit) the two women that I went with were still trekking, I lay on the grass, panting, face burning... bike thrown to the dirt never to be touched again (or so I believed at that moment)...
Now I don't feel bad about one woman being more in shape than I ever will be b/c she came out of her mothers womb with a six-pack and calves of steel... her girlfriend on the other hand is this short stocky teddy bear of a woman who is 150lbs my senior. She called me a pussy.
She was right. I was being a wimp... who knew after only 2 more miles my legs would go completely numb and I could continue riding with absolutely no pain? Pretty sweet... until I woke up this morning. It feels good... but damn. Damn. I take for granted my ability to move freely everyday. oye.
My ass, just in case anyone was wondering, is also completely numb. I type this in a squatting position. fun times. :)
