Pickin' on the Patio

Well, I thought that title would at least draw some attention. ha ha I had a massage appointment right after work tonight, and it always works out great to meet up with my friend, Sharon, following those appointments. Who would've thought massage would become such a regular part of my training for this IM? I can't imagine not having it included at this point. I'll be out riding or running on the weekend and think...I get to have all this worked out on Monday...it's a good thing for sure. I gave Kent a hard time, 'cause he seemed a bit cranky today. He said it was in anticipation of my visit! Real nice!
I met Sharon afterwards at a Mexican establishment up the road. The food - especially the guacamole!!! - was delicious. Our waitress was pretty odd, so we decided to get out of there and headed over to a coffee house that is right next door. Well, it was our lucky night for sure - they were having a ho-down right out front. We ordered and came back outside...it was a nice night to sit outdoors...too bad the music wasn't very good at all. I guess we knew it wouldn't be from the looks of things. Anyway, we snapped a few pics with our cell phones, but I haven't been able to download the pic to my email (at least not to this point), so for now - just Sharon and I can enjoy the photos. It was pretty funny.
All these gals were coming out of an exercise class at a nearby studio, and I happened to see a gal that used to come to spinning class. Too funny! She was looking at me like, what are you doing listening to this stuff? It seemed fairly obvious that we didn't belong with the crowd that was out there.
Oh well, it was great catching up with Sharon (hearing all about her trip to London and the Palace!!!) and we had some good laughs for certain!
