Happy Fourth!
Happy Birthday USA! :)
Today I worked, one of the two holidays I work this year. It wasn't bad for many reasons...
1) it rained all day and was pretty yucky here so I probably wouldn't have done anything fun with the day off
2) no traffic to speak of either going to or coming home from work
3) getting paid time and a half
4) it was a pretty easy day and I left an hour early
I got home around 3:20 pm and started the afternoon off right with a 90 minute nap. I was half watching Germany vs Italy in the World Cup, half sleeping. Okay, maybe it was 75% sleeping, 25% watching... :) And then my training buddy called and woke me up. Good thing because it was almost 5 pm! We talked for a while, made plans to ride together tomorrow and then O and I finally got out the door for our run around 5:40. Whew!
We ran for an easy 40 minutes through our neighborhood and it seemed as if every house was grilling burgers and BOY DID THEY SMELL GOOD! I felt pretty good running. I wore my heart rate monitor and now that I have the little doo-dad that allows me to download data from the watch to the computer, I might try and make some graphs tonight! I can tell this heart rate monitor business is going to be trouble for me... :)
Have a great night everyone!

Italy won 2-0! What a great match, good sportsmanship. Really enjoyable soccer for a change. Yeah...

If you don't like making the graphs, I have a feeling that O-the-Excel-wizard will be happy to do that for you. Or you know, I spent 5 years in college doing that kind of thing.
