Pumping Up the blues

I don't do well in wintry weather, and it is only going to get worse later this week, so I dragged myself to yoga this evening. As a result of this, I'm feeling far, far better. There's nothing like post-yoga-euphoria to cure the winter blues. For some reason, today there was blues music playing during the cooling down portion of the class!

Now that I'm feeling better, I just have to get my bike back in shape -- the tail light is not blinking (maybe just needs new batteries) and the back tire is totally flat. I thought I was just tired from the yoga, but then I noticed that flat tire. That was the real reason I was moving so slowly. I passed a gas station on the way home but it was useless, I looked around and didn't see an air pump. The attendant confirmed that they don't have one. (is this normal?) I made it home but I'll have to find another place to pump up my bike tomorrow.

I'm impressed that you can bike in the winter. Jealous!

Thanks, Seeking Solace. I'm going to get my act together and get back on the Active Academic one of these days.

Unbalanced, don't be too jealous...after biking through the snow today I decided that I'll have to put up the bike until it warms up again.
