Nice. Some soundtracks are a stretch, but that one was just cool and right. A very good day indeed.

For @Ramona_W, I went out for a ride on a beautiful, sunny 52° day and felt crappy immediately, no explanation for it. About 11 miles in, I see my wife's car in a parking lot with her getting ready to pull away. Rode over, loaded my bike, and said, “Take me home.” She obliged.
The mind said let's ride and the body said no way.

Saddle showed up. Saddle rail hardware showed up. Found a pair of $145 Sturmfist 4 gloves on sale for $70. Picked up some chain lube. Had a @datlas special, sofritas burrito, for lunch (although he probably does black beans to avoid the meat content in the pinto beans).

The flu and a "cold" are usually easy to distinguish. Colds have gradual onset (a couple days often), flu has abrupt onset - you can tell not only the day you got sick but the precise time....flu usually has a high fever, and also cough is usually the 3rd or 4th complaint, and flu does not give sore throat. Flu is not subtle, feels achy from head to toe, everything hurts.

These huge pineapples and mangoes are on in neighboring Tabasco. I also bought a grafted grapefruit tree to plant.

@PepeM, I was walking down the street in Merida this morning. As I passed a young woman in a doorway, she spoke the words 'pato bajo'. Was I being propositioned? Solicited?

Were you okay after that?

How didn't it happen:
Football injury when in highschool - accompanied by broken ribs, Lacrosse JV and Varsity, competitive paintball (think diving and sliding constantly) Crossfit, Olympic lifting, crashed a motorcycle twice, 4 car accidents.
I'd like to say I'm going to be careful when/if I can get it fixed but my first thought was.. man it would be fun to play adult league lacrosse again.
Life is fun, but dragging this meat sack around the past few years has been painful
