Well Isn't This Special?

The view from my front door this morning. Thankfully I park in the garage.

I need to rant a bit today - the snow and shit weather here has been annoying beyond belief. I truly don't mind winter in general so long as a good day or two gets stuck between the bad stretches but this is insane. We've not had a break from the snow/wind/freezing temp trifecta since that one freaky Saturday where it was 65 and pissed rain non-stop before the temp instantly dropped 45 degrees and everything froze. Looking out the window now it appears that the sun is peeking out for a short tease before the temps descend below zero. I'm loving this. Rant complete.

At least spin classes have been full and fun lately. We did some intervals this morning and while most of the class was awake, those who slept through the session at least made an attempt to look like they were working (no, they can't fool me anymore...). Here's the soundtrack:

Crystal Village - Peter Yorn
Drift and Die - Puddle of Mudd
You Wreck Me - Tom Petty
Breakerfall - PJ
She Builds Quick Machines - Velvet Revolver
C'mon C'mon - The Von Bondies
Better Man - PJ
Isn't She Lovely - Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
Crystal (long one) - New Order
Rockaway Beach - The Ramones
Ready to Go - Republica
Riders on the Storm - The Doors

Now it's time for a fun-filled 120 minutes of trainer time. Let's hope my ass doesn't fall asleep. Thought for the day: mediocrity sucks so just shut up and ride your bike :)
