I'm doing some hxc chilling out in Holland this week. I'm using my step-madre's bike to build up some endurance for the hilly Grand Rapids terrain. I rode all over GR a couple days ago applying for jobs, having dinner with Denielle, hanging at the Nest, and going bowling, and I paid for it that night and the next day with searing, rip-roaring pain in my thighs. Couldn't sleep, couldn't move, couldn't not move. Sang gave me a vicodin yesterday and it eased the pain for a while. And I just got back from hours of riding..from my dad's house to downtown Holland to Zeeland High School and back. It was so dark the last couple hours that I just hoped I didn't run into anything and braced myself for potholes and possums that didn't exist. I missed having a bike.

I'll be back in town around friday or so. I will most likely be staying in Luke's room at the Cadwell house while he's on tour and until my room in Skyler/Greg's frees up around the 10th.

Reality tv calls.
