the weekend

my knee is finally starting to look like a knee again. i tried to get a pic but none of the photos even showed a bruise. i have bruises/one big bruise from the top of my knee to just past the middle of my shin. my whole knee area is super tender. luckily it doesn't impair my ability to ride a bike. although riding in tights yesterday, the fabric kept snagging the scab. shoulda worn a band aid.
friday night we hit bmx with casey. she actually asks to go. we were going to actually hit the race on saturday... but a stem snafu and a birthday party kept us away. sunday john hit the tour da chicago while i sat at home doing nothing but web surfing, kid entertaining and coffee drinking. my day didn't change much other than changing clothes and heading out for a ride. which wasn't awesome, but great to be out anyway. my tube came popping out of my tire. i always have a seatbag on my road bike with a co2, etc. but not today! so i limped home in hopes of having no tube explosions. i quick got the tire fixed and went back out. but i could never warm up. i was frozen.
the day ended with zoe falling asleep downstairs, casey up way past her bed-time and john and i sucked into the end of the chamber of secrets. we really need to get to bed earlier. i'm super tired today.
