9am
I should be about 30 minutes earlier but I may have lost a lot of weight this morning. In actual fact, this ride should put me over the 3,500-calorie mark.
Just found out Greg Dulli is touring again in March so I will have some plans. Hope they don't conflict with Helloween. I was going to listen to a Blind Guardian song but it was an acoustic one and it had a lot of live cheering-only and I wasn't going to waste 7 minutes that way. I will remove it from the iPod, too, to make room for other stuff.
"King" by Fireball Ministry is my first song and this band is better than I remember. The singer's not as raspy as I'd recalled. My legs are still a little sore but I'll push them harder Thursday at the gym.
Hammerfall's "Keep the Flame Burning" started as I made the path toward the Bridge and it rocks, perfectly segueing in to "Paint a New World," my favorite song off Gambling With The Devil.
Airbourne's "Black Dog Barking" played as I got off the Bridge and I was doing fine until I got to the corner of Fulton and Nassau, where everything was a stand-still. A truck blocked the whole intersection and I asked a ticket-writing cop if he was going to do anything about the box blocker. So I felt a little cheated that Enforcer's "The Banshee" was wasted on slow, cautious riding and the occasional walking.
It's cold but I've got gloves today so my extremities are covered. I have to make it a point to leave on time today.
I still feel good about the positive feedback I received yesterday from the Sept 30 assignment.
Thank you for reading.
