Welcome to the working week

I'm unable to do much this weekend besides maybe a short tempo session saturday and 3x20s on sunday. forecast calls for rain and snow most of the weekdays. this is my second highest volume week of the season. in short, entertain me or get me to quit the sport, or guess why I can't ride much this weekend.

Age has nothing to do with it.

I've a buddy who just had one, and he's only 24.

I'm just saying, it makes things convenient.

you're selling your house on wednesday,
closing on your new one on friday,
having your chimney swept, carpets cleaned, and floors resealed on saturday,
moving some things, having portions of the new house painted, new carpet installed, appliances delivered, FiOS hooked up, and packing up to move in on 12/23,
and hosting family from out of town for the Christmas holiday through your daughters birthday on 1/1?

Grading final papers, battling a chest cold, and dealing with two sick kids?

Can we retitle this the "holiday ***** thread?"

At least you don't have to deal with community college students who make indignant comments about me to my boss because I actually make them work instead of spoon-feeding them everything.

Seriously.

You're too fat for cycling.

I won't be riding because I'm attending a concert tomorrow night and conducting one the next night. The other evenings are in preparation. I hope the weather clears up by Sat.
