7 am
Oh man
I hurt all over. Not necessarily in a bad way, but still. And here’s why:
yesterday (and the day before) I biked both to and from work. Yesterday I biked
to on 47 and back over the notch. Both are killers in their own ways. And the
day before I went 47 both ways, but I stopped at the farm on the way home to
pick up some 500 lbs of vegetables which I carried the 5 miles home in the milk
crate on the back of my bike. And then last night I went with friends to
Trans-performance at Look Park and we danced the night away to all kinds of
goofy music. It was tons of fun but now – I hurt all over! Ok it was not 500
lbs of vegs, but we did have 30 (!) tomatoes plus a cantaloupe and that is
heavy! Oh well, I managed, though it did make the bike really unbalanced. I
will need to find a way to get new panniers or bring my backpack or something.
Trans-performance
was so much fun. I can’t remember all the groups that were covered – this
year’s “theme” was “Bobs” as a way to honor Bob Seligman (?) who is retiring as
the director of it. He also does and will continue to do Young At Heart Chorus.
The most memorable were: The Cure and Devo both bands I’d never heard of but
that were a lot of fun, Vanilla Ice, Bob Marley who did a very odd song about
kicking all the whites out which was a little uncomfortable given that I’m not
sure there was a single person of color in the audience (well, there must have
been – yes there were some, but not a lot), Joni Mitchell, and Led Zepellin who
was so great. These local musicians really give it their all. And so we vowed
to try to check some of them out when they perform their own music locally.
As for
today. Well I am hoping not to go into work, or anyway to only go in one more
day this week. Which day will depend on when the prof can schedule an
appointment with the science librarian to review Moodle. The prof looked really
fried when I saw her yesterday. She has only barely done anything with Moodle yet.
So if I do not go in today, I will TRY
to get a lot of home stuff done. I have a bunch of bunny cleaning up to do. I am
going to try coming up with a new system of wool block prevention besides
vasoline-ing them. I got a few suggestions from the Angora Rabbit list. I need
to see if I can find a source of papaya enzyme pills. I used to get them at the
grocery store, but they no longer have them. And someone uses a mix of oil and molasses
that I should try. Besides all that, I would like to finish in the garage. I need
to figure out how to store the camping gear that is all in the living room, and
then…..attempt to organize the tools. Ugh. And oh just a comment. I finally tried to deal
with the pile of rugs that had been all over the house to deal with Tigger’s
leaking issue. I scrubbed one small rug (won’t fit in the washer) and left it
out to dry. Well it got wet in the rain last night and man it really stinks of
dog pee. Yuck. Maybe I will need to take all these to the Laundromat.
