Is this really an ultra marathon?

It was another beautiful day today here. It was crystal clear with temperatures in the mid 50s.

I smuggled in Skyline for lunch today for my S. I splurged and bought the dip and chips for him and share with some of his classmates, too. I got to outside for recess with him after lunch, too. He was thrilled!

I hit the bike path again today to punish my body some more. 33 miles today. I think I'll take the weekend off of biking. Prior to the ride, I had stopped at my local coffee shop and also perused an outdoor store that has a bunch of things I want but can't afford.

I got home at the exact same time my S got home. He wanted to hang out inside, but I encouraged him to get outside and throw the frisbee with the dog and me. Then, we decided to see if he could ride my W's bike. Her bike is pretty low mileage - it has less miles on it than I've ridden this week alone. So we lowered the seat and he was able to ride. He was so excited - it has gears and a computer that tells him how far he's gone and how fast he's going. That pretty much shot the time until my W got here.

My W had texted me and asked if wanted to just take S down to her apartment, because she was stuck in traffic. I just texted back and said we were going on a bike ride. It was another pleasant exchange. I didn't really advertise what I've been doing this week, but it was pretty obvious what I had done today, based on what I was wearing. She job about a potential job opportunity where she's working now - it would mean she would be working both days of every weekend, but she'd also have a couple days off during the week. I shared S's report card with her - I have it on the refrigerator. One of his teachers had commented, "Exhibits positive attitude". I had highlighted it. I am proud of him. He's DB'ing the teachers now.

Unfortunately, the rest of my evening's pretty bland. These are the evenings I crave that companionship. A date would be nice, but so, so wrong in my book. I also don't know a whole lot of other single guys in the same position I am right now. It's all right, though. It's been a pretty busy day. I may just chill out with a Redbox movie.
