I'm going to start racing my bike next year.
Early Bird crits start in January.
Ack.
In other news, I have an 80 mile ride tomorrow. Palomares. My pre-ride evening meal: a burger, some fries, a mixed drink, and an Arrogant Bastard. Bring it on.

It's been decided??? By whom? I didn't decide this! What's a crit? Crit...ter? Critter?
What's in an Arrogant Bastard? Don't you think you should eat a huge take-out container of fettucini alfredo immediately before you start riding?
"Criterium", Mayor Me!
An Arrogant Bastard is a beer. I've been meaning to try it for ages; it's always on the menu at Lanesplitters. But it's in a huge bottle there, so I couldn't taste it first. Fortunately, I accidentally tasted Susan's at T-Rex, where it is served on tap (she wasn't in the immediate vicinity, and the beer was practically SCREAMING at me for attention). I found it acceptable, grabbed a comfy seat at the table, and asked Wendy, who happened to be at the bar rolling her eyes at me, to order me one! YAY!
Fettucini Alfredo is an excellent choice. But maybe the night before, rather than RIGHT before.
Hey: as a politician and all, can you do something about gas prices? My tank's on empty.
No, WHO decided this? We didn't decide this. It's been decided? How? Who? Why? Why would someone do this to you? It's too extreme! Do you have a helmet protector to wear on your helmet?
Dwight says it's best to carbo-load, with a heavy cream sauce for better absorption, immediately before athletic activity involving covering more than 3 miles.
Oh. I decided, MOM (Mayor of Me). And then I had a bad dream, partly the result of anxiety surrounding my decision, and partly the result of this Lynda.com Photoshop tutorial I had taken at work that day: In the demo, a photo of the Stanley Hotel (the inspiration for Steven King's The Shining; I've been there -- it's in Estes Park, CO) was being doctored to make it really scary looking.
Do you mean Dwight Shrute?
