Awesome Day
*******
Today was an awesome day! If my blog could play music, I would have either Beautiful Day by U2 playing or Good Day by Luce.
This morning I woke up early and went for a bike ride, afterwards I did some strength training on my arms, then in the early afternoon I gave my cousin a massage. I then topped off my day with a shopping spree. Okay that one was a lie, what I really did was go to my least favorite mega-store (starts with a W) and bought some cat food for my cat who today I am calling the vampire LaDama.
Sidebar: My cat. Her real name is Riley, that's the name she came with when I got her six+ years ago. She was 4 years old and needed a home fast. She's not a very nice cat, but I love her lots. After a while, I started calling her "dama". Most people assume it's dama, Spanish for lady, but it's not. It's actually da ma which is Mandarin for big mama. I took 3 semesters of Mandarin for my foreign language requirement. End Sidebar.
This morning after the bike ride and before the weights I was playing with my cat and she clawed my neck. Okay, yeah, I provoked her. She hates being picked up and that's exactly what I did. She was just trying to push away from me- claw's out- and her paw landed on my neck and she left two puncture marks. Ouch!
So, that was my day. After finishing this post I plan on doing some sit-ups to work on my core, and then watch a movie for a bit before going to bed. I have an exciting day planned for tomorrow too. After Mass, I'm meeting my girlfriends Lily and Vegas for lunch, then I plan on going for another bike ride. The weather has been so nice it's been calling my name.
Some of you are probably thinking, Cycling? Did she say she was going cycling? Um, yeah. I know at least one of you out there thought after my post summing up my year that I was quitting cycling completely and selling my bike. Uh, no. I just said that I was going to ride when I felt like it, and not ride when I didn't feel like it, without guilt. That is true. Crazy thing is, ever since I made that declaration, all I've wanted to do on these nice days is ride my bike. I even re-joined the Fresno Cycling Club. It reminds me of a quote we've all heard: If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it is yours. If it doesn't, it was never meant to be. Maybe I set cycling free and it came back to me. Maybe, as my best friend likes to put it, I just need to put the crack pipe down.
What about the arms? I'll give you one guess. If you guessed taiko, you are correct!!! I'm already signed up for my next workshop on May 12, in San Jose. My personal goal is to be able to lift my arms when I'm done! (^ ^) I had such an awesome time, I just want to do it again and again. Can you imagine what my arms would look like if I did this EVERY weekend?
I'm so glad spring is here! Aren't you?
