good timing and good excercise | squirrellord's Blog

well.. i went to the lunch meeting.  it was kinda sucky today.  no one had anything of significance for me today, just a lot of complaining, but i guess i have to take the good with the bad.  the rest of the work day was okay, kinda quiet.  I played some online guitar hero games to pass the time. My patience level was a little low today.  Thats gonna take a lot of work and practice to overcome.

I had a nice suprise today.  After paying most of my bills (i still have a few hundred to go but i made good progress), i realized i was hurting for cash for the next two weeks.  I got home to check my mail, and BAM there was my stimulus check.  Ill be honest tho... the first thing I though about stimulating was not the economy, it was my nose.  Those feelings passed quickly though.  I went to the 6:45 meeting tonight and I rode my bike there.  Ill tell ya it wasnt too far, but my legs felt it.  No pain no gain right? :)  I shared at the meeting about how when I knew I got the money I had cravings.  I decided to make this meeting my "home group".  Thats one of the things AA people tell everyone to do, that I did not do last time.  Another thing they say to do which i didnt, was once you get a home group to take on a commitment.  So, since they were all taken.. i am "greeter #2".  That means I show up early, set up the chairs, and stand by the door and shake everyones hand and say hello.  Gotta start at the bottom floor and work your way up :)  There is one good thing, greeter #1 is the really hot bones girl (I will call her RHBG from now on :) ) She only has less then 2 months clean, so the last thing either of us needs is a relationship, but lookings allowed right?

After the meeting I rode my bike around for a little while, found a pizza shop and got 2 slices and a snapple.  I then rode my way home.  I saw some cops standing around on a corner, so I stopped to ask them the local laws for riding your bike in the city.  They were nice.  Its nice to not have to avoid the cops!

All in all i probably rode 2-3 miles.  My legs are feeling it, as its the first real excercise ive done in months, even years.  Ill take the day off from the bike tomorrow, but wednesday I will get back on it.  I dont wanna over do it and hurt myself.

Well good night to everyone out there, sleep well.
