Today was a particularly sad day. I got a phone call from Tori though, and it was wonderful to get to chat with her again. I spent most the day putzing around the garage building up the second version of my CX bike, including a bit of welding tomfoolery. Otherwise, toiled around the neighborhood with mom, and a bit of a trip uphill to spend some quality time with a friend and be close to someone.

Before the rough bought of introspection, last night was awesome. I look slightly less grossly middle aged in that attire compared to the ones from Rogelio’s birthday party.

Cross race tomorrow, gotta get some sleep. Maybe a Portland trip coming up early this week for a meeting or two at HQ.
