Coming home from work today

I went into the office today, but ended up having to come home a couple of hours early (for some reason, my temp decided to spike - once it got close to 100, I decided it was time to hit the road.)  Fortunately, though, my trusty steed was fueled up and ready to go, so I was able to take Max and then scooter home. 

Funny thing, though... it was the perfect confluence of ephemera that you rarely get.  Not sure if it was my brain being feverish or what, but - there's a bike path that goes from the Max station to my house, so I was able to just go ahead and open it up and enjoy the ride (I know, opening it up to 4 mph doesn't sound that good, but...)  Chugging along, my sunglasses on, purplish hair flying in the wind, Meatloaf screaming in my headphones - I was feeling cool.  Until, of course, I got home, parked my screaming machine in the garage and went to stand up.  Then, I got reminded that I'm an arthritic old woman.  Damn it.  But still - I had a moment of cool.  That's something.  I'll take it.

Feeling the wind in our hair...
