The biological father of my step-daughter died last night. Severe candida infection of the esophagus. By the time they finally were able to diagnose it, it was too late. I knew him, but not well. We were dopplegangers; people couldn't tell us apart. My wife was fond of saying she married the same man twice. Two deaths this week. Will there be a third?

I have a live feed of Vuelta al Pais Vasco sans commentary. It's the GCN feed that GCN is not allowed to broadcast into my country. It's a start. And more importantly, it's still weeks out from the Giro.

still sick. made an appointment with the doctor today, made me do it via teleconference because of the chance it’s covid. Got prescribed Z pack and a steroid but i’m waiting to hear back from my aviation doctor to know if I can take the steroid.
My wife now has a stomach flu. She was throwing up all night last night and can’t keep anything down.
I really hope I am better by thursday so I don’t miss anymore work, but realistically I don’t think that is going to happen. Will have to call the chief tomorrow to let him no what’s going on.
Im at a loss. I don’t remember the last time I was sick but I don’t think I have ever been sick this long.
Yesterday I felt okay but my head was still super congested and the cough was really bad. Today the fatigue came back.

Well it's a treat to be watching live cycling again. It's been a couple years or so. Unfortunately, I have to put it down and go to the city before it gets too hot. Tomorrow though. And I now have English commentary!

Thanks guys. The orange color didn't photograph well in the bright sunlight. It really lit up much more than expected.
I'll ditch the Cannondale duffle bag for something smaller after I get it sorted and don't need to carry so much crap.
