new smoothie today, odwalla super protein chocolate. hands down the smoothest protein one yet. the naked ones are good and have a touch more protein but not the smoothness that odwalla has. very good! marginal work yesterday, the legs were loaded from tuesday's work in the rain and didn't seem too keen on another hard day without a rest between. i forgot chamois cream so i'm a bit uhh, uncomfortable down there today. riding the path in march is a guilty pleasure, the enjoyment of no cars is liberating and the lack of snow is freightening. i have no control over the latter so i am just going to enjoy the path until it gets too crowded with tourists to really be fun. great dinner of pseudo-leftovers, my sauce from tuesday and ziti and then some fresh giampietros bread and a salad from heaven. sometimes my hunger matches my meal perfectly, this was one of them. sushi last night wouldn't have been as good as pasta and mexican wouldn't have suited how hungry i was as well as italian. the other day when b and i went grocery shopping i bought this beautiful wedge of parmesean, i grate just enough for each meal in long fingernail thin slices, as kramer would say "it's all surface area, there nowhere for the flavor to go." needless to say, it's a treat! the commute today was scary, an inch or so of snow and then it froze on the roads. black ice for the whole ride. somehow i got lucky and stayed up. tripoding the really icy sections and steady nerves for the darker bits where i couldn't really see what was under me. the sky again was radiant, when i was able to look up it seemed to glow in a neon blue. life is good
