friday afternoon fun

well, well, well, another weekend is upon us.

here in fresno, it's going to be a cold and wet one apparently.

here's how my day went: i woke up, and read a paper that i needed to peer read for a classmate. when i finished that, i needed to head out to school. originally, i had planned to ride the bus. but, the bus is slower than riding, and i hadn't ridden the bike much this week. so, i thought i'd ride. i knew a storm was coming in. but, it wasn't raining, and the weatherman assured me that the storm would happen sometime later.

really, i don't mind riding in the rain or cold. and, we've had warm weather of late, so riding in a showers wouldn't be that bad. so, i decided to bike it. shorts and a t-shirt.

then, i found out some thing i hadn't considered. it was windy. really windy. and cold. great. now, i'm riding in a cold headwind. but, i made it out to school and was dry. turned over the paper, checked my email, and went out to track to weigh in the implements for indoor nationals next week. got that done, and prepared to head home.

i knew i'd have a tailwind, so that would be good. and, it's still dry. well, the storm was quickly approaching. within a half block of leaving school, it started raining. that so, i got wet on the ride home. but, it wasn't as cold as it had been.

good times. and we're looking at a lot of rain to come. but, i don't have anywhere else to ride this weekend.
