I was bitter until I went to Physical Therapy today for my knee, and the therapist said I could start mountain biking again, well, light mountain biking. I had surgery at the beginning of February, so this was welcome news...and I also found out I have Friday off from work. Nice.

However, I will resume being bitter later in the day because something always happens...

When you're young and so in love as we
And bewildered by the world we see
Why do people hurt us so
Only those in love will know
What a town without pity can do

If we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how bad we are
Ours is not an easy age
We're like tigers in a cage
What a town without pity can do


The young have problems, many problems
They need an understanding heart
Why don't they help us, try and help us
Before this grey and granite planet falls apart


Take these eager lips and hold me fast
I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When those little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do


Take these eager lips and hold me fast
I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When those little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do


No it isn't very pretty
What a town without pity can do
Whoa, can do

Just a little down in the dumps today...
I hear ya mang, I'm in the same sitch right meow. Just kinda... bummed. Stupid rain, stupid work, stupid not having any food in the fridge, stupid not riding as much as I want to, stupid stupid stupid.

But hark! What light from yonder winder breaketh (or something)? Ah yes - the start of the race season is nigh, and soon my weekends will be filled with perfect berms and rock gardens, and no longer with the clack-clack-clacking of my keyboard haunt me, droning into the wee hours of the night. When all the posters are designed, the registration forms printed, and t-shirts delivered, I will stand atop a heap of race shwag, and KNOW that I done-did a good jorrrrb.

Hopefully by then, my fitness and skillz (nun chuck skillz? computer hacking skillz? bowstaff skillz?) won't have deteriorated to the point that a 7-year-old could beat me down a hill on a magnetic razor scooter!

Westy has no pity for those who refer to themselves in the third person. Or is it the second person? Westy can't remember.

That beats referring to everyone in the first person. Gets confusing.
