being sick is so awesome!
Dean and Dave and I had a ‘business meeting’ at the local watering hole last Monday. Dave said that his kids were sick but it’s just a 24-hr thing. That was a week ago and I just spent the whole weekend in bed watching crappy TV and being whiny to myself.
But on the bright side, I knew I’d be home and able to watch the Paris-Roubaix bike race. For those who know less about cycling than Dave does about viruses, Paris-Roubaix is one of the cooler bike races out there. It’s called the Hell of the North because it has a number of sections where the riders go through sections of cobble-stoned streets, and it’s hell just trying to stay upright for many riders. Added, there are some dirt sections and then the race ends in a velodrome in Roubaix after a total of 160 miles. So it’s one of the more exciting races to watch.
I slept in, took a shower and went to the store for food and as soon as I got back I turned on the TV. Just in time too! There was Stuart O’Grady going across the finish line in the velodrome! I fukn missed the race!
Oh well, at least I’m still sick. That’s always a bonus.
