I just got back from a going away party for a colleague and I'm now trying out the various fun things my fabulous elf, taratru, sent me. In a few minutes, I'll watch a little bit of the Tonight Show because my brother went to the taping today and insists that I'll be able to see him in the audience.

Just played some online Cards Against Humanity with the SO gals (AWESOME). Totally didn't do my bike OR swim today. Instead, I spent all day waiting for my new powertap to get delivered and then set it all up so I can kill myself on the bike tomorrow.

We DO!!! I have no plans this weekend other than Sunday afternoon. And my week is pretty open before I head to Cali next week for the Tink races. Or, when I'm back. It's a pretty slow time of year for me.

I'm skiing at Eldo on Sunday, but I'm planning on heading to Valmont to check out the cyclocross nationals tomorrow. You should come!
Classes start Monday, so my schedule will get busier, but it's still pretty flexible, and most evenings are open, aside from training.
Woot!!! The worst elf ever finally got her gift out.
Whaaa?? You've got it all wrong! You were a fantastic elf and I love every single thing in the cute bag. And it's way more special and fun to open gifts now, rather than during the madness of the holidays.
I just drank an ENTIRE BOTTLE of Pinot Noir. By myself. How did that happen?!?!
What's everyone up to?
I'm jealous. I wanted some wine with dinner last night but I was afraid that "some wine" would turn into "massive quantities of wine" after the week I had. So I think I'm cutting myself off til post-race.

Ha! Yeah, I tried that & failed miserably. It was no booze after NYE. Then on New Year's Day, we were planning our Italy trip, & it seemed wrong not to drink wine. The following Monday, it was the championship game, and we're Seminoles, soooo...yeah. Beer. I had an awesome 22 miler, so clearly that deserved a beer, & after my run tomorrow, we're going for breakfast & mimosas. Next weekend, friend's are coming into town (& staying with us) to celebrate the husband's birthday. :? I think it's just going to have to be a "no alcohol during race week" type of thing. I'm such a failure.

I feel that no alcohol during race week is totally reasonable. That's where I'm at, anyway. Ideally it would be an alcohol-free taper, but...yeah. No.
I used of love wine but since being pregnant I cannot stand it. Crazy. I also can't stand milk chocolate or Greek yogurt both of which I ate pretty much daily pre pregnancy and during. Since I can't drink beer (celiacs), vodka it is.

I've done no alcohol during race week before and it doesn't seem to make a difference. Now I wouldn't go out boozing it up before a race (I've also done this) but a little alcohol race week I don't think would hurt
