Today has been a down to business sort of day. When getting ready for a trip away, there usually comes a point where you bolt upright covered in a cold sweat and think, "I only have 48 hours to get ready to go".
That moment came today.
To be honest, it was such a panic of a moment. My plan all along has been to spend most of today getting ready. As such, it hasn't been a panicked day, but it has been a busy one. There was a bit of training to do. Gentle spin on the bike. Some last minute shopping, some replacing of medication, a clean of the bike. The list goes on. Actually it doesn't go on that far. It had 13 items on it. Of them nine are done, but three of them are really for tomorrow, they are just on the list as reminders. The one last thing left to do for today is pack the bike. Just that little thing.
I am about half way through the packing the bike bit. I just thought I would take a moment to compose this piece of literary masterwork.
As you may gather, I am a list kind of person. My understanding is that that says something about my personality, I am not entirely sure what. Perhaps it just says that I am the sort of person that doesn't like forgetting his helmet when he travels all the way to another country to do a race. I will admit that as well as my list of 13 items that I have been working off today, I may have also e-mailed another list to myself for stuff to be done tomorrow. At least I didn't have a reminder on my list for today about sending myself a list for tomorrow. Writing a list to remind myself to write a list might be taking things a little bit far.
Although I think I may have done that in the past.
Swimming time tomorrow, followed by some panicked packing.
Flying time on Wednesday.
