wine after work doesnt work

my friend and her neighbors and their dogs get together on fridays over wine....  it is a nice concept... except as i confirmed for myself last evening - right after work usually results in a low food to wine ratio - which leads to a sluggish saturday...
it was a beautiful night once the sun went down and the mosquitos went away...  and it cooled off real nice too...
it is still rather cool this morning...  i am prepping to go do the last of the swim bike runs before next week's race...  i have really been enjoying this training - even if i havent been improving my speed significantly or dropping pounds like others - who just happen to take up the sports and coincidentally drop what was it 30 pounds in the process...  i just have been enjoying myself...
and the enjoying myself aspect of it does seem rather selfish - sure KP and I trained for the first time together the other night - she has strep now so no training with her this week - but for the most part it is me and my thoughts and my music and my time....  it is wonderfully head clearing - even on the days of the stinkin thinkin...
so i have been looking at other races - there is one in 2 weeks - it is a doable distance - i am just not fond of the course they are following for the bike - seems a whole lot longer than 12 miles...
there is one in Wilmington too that is women's only but it is the same weekend as my haircut and well... i guess i dont have a real good excuse for that one...
and then the one in charlotte in september...
i willjust keep an eye out
