Riding tonight was pretty great. I wish there were more laps, but I enjoyed it all the same. Having been sick like a dog, and working like a dog, I felt like I hadn’t seen anyone in days.

Progress on the SS MTB continues, excitement builds. Everyone in my family is buying me bike parts from the LBS for christmas. Funny walking in to talk to Ashok as my grandfather called him and him assuming “B McLellan” was my cell phone pocket dialling him.

Relationships make total sense these days, but, a disappointing sort of sense where I feel like I’ve been trying too hard to make something happen that isn’t going to. I can’t do anything other than sigh when I think about you doing what’s best for you. It’d be nice to not be able to miss you.

To make another point, M asked how I would feel if a friend of M’s told her how they felt how she treated me was wrong. I told her I’d be impressed. There’s an incredible about of significance in the truth of that.
