New Things and Old
Going to see a live band tonight. Been quite some time since I've seen a gig. I'm quite excited; on the other hand, I have a race tomorrow, and this will prevent me from seeing the headliner, Martyr. I actually don't even expect to see the co-headliner, Neuraxis. nevertheless, I should see some good neck-snappin' toe-tappin' action, which is all I really want. Some distraction from the thesis and from cycling.
I did a little tune-up ride today by joining the OBB ride. KSW was there, which was nice. His ankle has prevented him from running this season, so he is converting to the bike, which was his original sport anyway. I hope that he makes a full conversion back to the road; on the other hand, I know that he had some misgivings about the sport; ultimately, he may be unhappy with the sport. Nevertheless, it would be nice to have another friend in the peloton.
I seem unhappy lately. I am not sure if it due to my atrocious diet (can't help) or my lacklustre attempts at the thesis. I have hardly dented the second book yet; it seems I'm such a slow reader, and so slow to take material in; I am not sure if I'm suited to a thesis. At the same time, financial doom is impending; I think somehow this doom is thwarting my current attempts at happiness; and the little Arcadia I had planned this Summer -- this little irenic retreat from material concerns -- is slowly devolving into my typical anxieties. Yes, the constant machinations in my mind about how to pay back these loans is exhausting and distracting me from my purpose. I must put a stop to that.
Well, out the door for a little \m/ \m/
