It's the good life, from now on

Oh boy.

Things are, well, good.

Great, even. Not surprisingly that's heavily influenced by how great work is going. Productivity has been at an all time high. Motivation equally as elevated, and overall satisfaction has been growing even moreso.

Except one thing--well two--sucks. When I went snowboarding I busted my knee on a 40+ mph spill and it still sort of hurts, so I've been taking it easy. It's been feeling much better, so I told myself I'd be able to hop on the Felt and ride some good miles this weekend.

Well, what do you know? Friday, while walking to work, everything had frozen over quite exquisitely after the previous days snow and slush, so not paying close attention had a great fall and ended up landing on my other knee and bruising the area just south of the meniscus--and fuck does it hurt.

So, out of precaution and overall smartness I begrudgingly put-off riding--and running for another week. I just can't stand the thought of injuring my knees. That's far worse than another week or two of downtime.

Oh well. At least Kentucky pulled off a great revenge win over South Carolina in Columbia from the loss to them last season. Terrence Jones is a beast. BEAST.

I keep saying I'm going to get back to vinting--I haven't made any wine in some time. That's something that I MUST make happen next weekend. That, and run, and bike, and stop making risotto. Yeah, I learned how (way easier than people trounce about saying it is) and have made it 3 times since last weekend during mom's visit.

What kind of garden do I want to have one day? A moss garden. Ever seen those? Holy cow, they are simply fascinating. I could get lost in them happily.

I baked today...yeah, that's right. I baked cookies. 

Oh boy.
