The tyranny of aging bodies

[jhetley]

Got about ten miles into my Sunday ride and decided my right knee wasn't _going_ to stop aching. Apparently it hasn't forgiven me yet for hauling fifteen-thirty loads of Younger Son's stuff up to his third floor apartment on Friday. So anyway, I bailed out on the ride, cutting it about in half.

What ARE you doing in my t-shirt drawer?

I find myself getting mildly insulted that the body, having walked for miles and miles at the Ex on Saturday with only two sitting down breaks, was distinctly uncooperative on Sunday and demanded frequent strengthening cups of tea ... it's supposed to work much better than that.

Supposed by whom, you ask? Me, of course. Which I suspect is a large part of the problem.
