So as you will now all be aware, the footy was a drawn match, the pollen of doom is still at large and the work bike lock up is still too full. I would like to say that I spent the weekend cycling but I didn't. I folded paper cranes, I tried to stop my boyfriend from football induced combustion, there were too many pies, I read comics in a coffee shop and introduced Mark to the wonders of Good Omens, and I went to a concert. Good weekend... aside from the allergies. Oh the allergies. I hate going outside. I FEAR going outside. I wake up in the middle of the night snotty. I cannot breathe and I cannot open windows. It's awful.
But back to what the blog is actually about (cycling...) I took B out yesterday because it was my duty to contribute to my team. We went for a roll to the shops in the sun which was lovely, and then at night we rolled over to William Street for dinner and then to the Amplifier for Regurgitator. It was pretty cold, but the ride was pretty good. I enjoyed waving at Callum from my perch on my bike while riding off down the street. He'd never seen me on my bike and the chortle he let out (and it really only could be called a chortle) was warming to my heart. I've also been practicing riding more on busier roads, but at night. I figure that way I will be more prepared if I feel like riding on them during the day because I will know what is coming.
This morning I am in an allergy haze, but I rode into work anyway. I think I was going faster than normal because I was having to break a lot harder. Note to self; when you have allergy haze you get a lead foot Miss.
We're going to a lecture at Murdoch Uni tonight about a woman who lead an expedition team in Antarctica for 9 months. It's going to be really awesome. Would take the bikes up there but I think B might roll back down the hill, so we'll see how the night time goes. If we go to Ricky's after, I have a feeling that they will stay here.
Also, I hear I missed yet another Don Draper opportunity. I have Mr. Miller to thank for that one. It's a shame because he's looking very well dressed.
As there was a public holiday, I will upload two Star Lady Pin Up's today. As a lot of people who read my blog are TrueBlood fans, and as the TrueBlood convention was this weekend in Melbourne and Sydney, I am uploading a picture of Anna Paquin, casually cycling on one of her many Hello Kitty bicycles. The treat (if that's what you would call it) is that this photograph also has Stephen Moyer, whom I believe is also on the show, in it. Given that this weekend was also the start of a new season of Supernatural, the other Star Pin Up is Danneel Harris, now wife of Jensen Ackles, looking lovely and casual on her tandem bike with Mr. Ackles. A couple of examples of girls casually cycling in casual clothes, which really is the whole point isn't it?
Here's to another week of Grand Final anticipation, allergies, getting yelled at for where you lock your bike and avoiding getting glassed:/
