excuses, excuses...

I'm not sure what the deal is, but I've skipped bike commuting this week.



Monday's excuse for not bike commuting:
It just seemed "too dark" in the morning.

Tuesday's excuse for not bike commuting:
It was "too foggy" this morning. (Well, it WAS!)

What will Wednesday's excuse be?
(a) I want to sleep in.
(b) It's so chilly in the morning!
(c) They just put new carpet in my office -- the bike tires would make it dirty.
(d) __________________ Fill in the blank and help me out here!

Or maybe when tomorrow morning rolls around I will actually get on my little bike and pedal to work.

(And yep, that's me up there on my groovy banana bike. I think it was probably taken during the summer of 1967.)

The weather looks better this morning, but too bad you don't have your groovy banana bike. I remember the "burn" in my thighs when I rode mine---I bet it would keep you toasty warm on your way to work.

It's too windy.

I'm tired and deserve a break today.

I'll ride tomorrow.

Good to give the body a rest once in awhile.

I have to run some errands at lunch, best to take the car.

I have to run some errands on the way home, best to take the car.

(I can probably think of more...)

LOL, I have a hunch "anonymous" is my mom...

In any event, I liked all the suggested "d"s -- and I used them all this morning!
