day 15: my bike is fixed! for the third time.

my toe is bleeding. it's fine.

my bike is fixed! this time hopefully for good. i brought it back to the shop where i bought it and they adjusted one screw that was responsible for the chain falling off. they also did a few other things that should make the bike smoother to ride, tucked away some wires etc. etc. etc. the owner also sprayed some stuff into my trunk lock so it will open without bending my key now. magic. (i think he felt bad that no one caught this the first time. but honestly i can ride it around for 20 minutes without the chain falling off, so....) anyway. the owner is really great and i got to chat with a couple of the people that work there and i'm just a little in LOVE with this place.so nice and un-pretentious for people who suck at bikes like me.

running today was exhausting. wednesdays are speed days and today's intervals were four minutes long. i almost stopped at three intervals (i was supposed to do 3-4), but pushed through. thank you, inability to under-achieve until i'm injured. still, ouch.

my plan was to go out biking after dinner, but somehow it was 8 when i got back from running, 9 before i finished making custard and 9:30 before i finished dinner.

agh. some day these posts will get more interesting. but for now..

i was outside for more than an hour today, mindful enough to push through my difficult workout, and in the last two days have used the mixer, bowls, salad spinner and containers that my mom and aunt got for me about 1400000 billion times. i'll tell you about those in another post..
