oddly tired yesterday afternoon i bailed on the ride and tried to not hurt myself skating the pool, partial success there. i wish i understood why my body reacts the way it does. the seemingly arbitrary fatigue makes me want to rest more but i don't think it's more rest i need but more good rest. the diet is fine if not a bit thin for what i do. with a good ride at the firecracker as one of the few goals i have for the summer i know i need one 4 hour day a week, maybe when the trails dry a bit it'll come. i keep seeing this one fox near the bike path in the wetlands, he isn't spooked at all by bikes, doesn't seem to care if i roll within 20 feet of him. i wonder if this is a good thing or not. he is so socialized that he just wanders without worry that humans will harm him. the only real concern he seems to have is the dinner he's looking for. the bears aren't out in the hood yet, my garbage is safely tucked away. with all of that daylight on the trip to work right now i wonder when i'll the first one of the year. the forest is getting up, it's only a matter of time before they decide to walk out in search of more food, not much more appetizing than fresh garbage.
