Well, That Was...

     ...I don't know.  Refreshing?  On the advice of my doctor, I just laid around most of the weekend.  I was working terrible hours all last week and fighting some kind of infection, so by the time I showed up at the doctor's office at 1:30 Friday afternoon, having been awake since 11:00 the previous night, I was kind of exquisitely exhausted.

     After discussing the hours I'd been working and how I was feeling, she looked at me and asked, "Do you work tomorrow?  Because I can write a note right now that you should be off for a couple days..."  This from a practice remarkably unreceptive to malingerers, if the things I have overheard in many years of going there are any guide.

     So I didn't do a whole lot yesterday -- a lovely day, though one that set my allergies tingling -- and today was cold and gray, fine weather for staying indoors and mostly horizontal. 

     Has it helped?  I think so.  Still not a hundred percent, but much better than most of last week.

  1. Glad to hear you feel (at least a little) better.

    Here in Minnesnowta we're looking at a string of days from now until Friday of above-average temperatures and sunny skies. That stuff usually hits Indiana a day later, so hopefully you'll be seeing warm and sunny for a couple of days as well.

    It was 38F at the house this morning, which is a three-layer day for the ride to work on the 'Wing:
    - Aerostitch electric vest
    - Heavy sweatshirt
    - Leather jacket
    With the heaters on the bike (grip and seat) I ride until it's either below about 25F, or it looks like it's going to be slippery on the roads. It's not uncomfortable that way.

    Just out of curiosity, what's your weather cut-off for riding the scooter?
