On Tuesday morning I wake up with the sniffles. I get through the day at work with reasonable productivity and then go walking when I return home. I take an Actifed almost as ssona s I get home to dry up the sniffles and to help me sleep. I have a big weekend planned and don't want to be sick for it.
On Thursday I continue to work on details of the model and simulation and keep putting the building blocks together. It is soon going to be time to start generating results and defending the results. When I get home I just think I'll try my best at the weights since the cold and sniffles have hampered me for the last few days. But it turns out I repeat Monday's lifts without anything more than the expected difficulty. Afterwards I walk to the grocery store and water the lawn and relax.
ANother sunny day sees me riding the mountain bicycle again down to the pier and back. On today's ride I see many of the usual people that I see out riding including some of my co-workers and people that I've cycled with. Just after noon Person Ti_Ca get on the motorcycle and ride to the California Science Center to see the space shuttle Endeavor as well as the other current science displays. We enjoy the story of the space shuttle and transporting it through the streets of Los Angeles and actually seeing the size of shuttle itself. After a 60 minute nap at home people start whimping out on clubbing for the evening. So eventually I decide not to go out and instead assume that I'll go cycling with Derrick in the morning and try for clubbing next Saturday.
On Monday and Tuesday I keep running into roadblocks at work but I just keep trying to debug the models and simulations. It seems like its continuously one step forward and two steps back. At home on Monday I struggle with the same weights as last week. And then on Tuesday I go walking for about an hour before helping Person Ti_Ca with homework and working on web programming.
Saturday starts with a good road bicycle ride with Derrick though by the end I'm tired and almost falling back. On the ride home a neighbor cyclists stops me and shows me the new carbon fiber frame that he is building up and encourages me to get a new bike. And another neighbor stops me and we talk for a while about retirement and family and things. I finally make it home after the ride and mow the lawn. Today is a slow day so Person Ti_Ca and I do homework and just relax.
I have a good Monday at work as things actually start coming together on the final details of the models and simulations. Possibly the start of geenrating results is near. I have a great session with heavy weights on Monday after work. As Person Ti_Ca and I are doing homework two bees get into the house and buzz around. I capture both (one at a time) with a glass and cardboard and take them out back and release them. I think nothing of the coincidence of two bees getting into the house at once. I should have thought harder about it.
