I didn't get out the door 'til almost 9am.  It was already 90°.  I had to beat the eclipse.

I need to stop eating dessert.  But I felt all right and I got out early.  I was supposed to go bike riding with my brother-in-law, but he went without me.  Guess who will be going to taco Tuesday without him.

I went to bed fairly early last night.  I fell asleep with Emily watching Trolls.  Around 3:30am I realized the little cement mixer was no longer with us.  I got up to check her room and found her in the middle of the hallway with a blanket.  So I put her back in her own bed and couldn't get back to sleep.  I was planning on going on a bike ride with my BIL, Curtis at 6am.  We went 9.6 miles.  The first half was slightly downhill so we were really cruising.  The way back was slightly uphill and we slowed down quite a bit.  Because we did so few miles, I decided to get a little run in.  However, my legs tightened up and I questioned whether or not I should actually go.  I decided to be a tough guy and do it.  I felt so slow.  But in reality, I don't think I was that much slower than my normal pace as of late.  It just felt slow because my legs were tired.  Going to the Foreigner/Cheap Trick concert tonight.  I'll probably fall asleep.

14.2 miles on the bicycle.  I started about quarter to 11.  It was a little bit hot.
