I was pedaling rather heavily on the bicycle last night. Standing up on the pedals and leaning into them to maintain a decent speed as I went uphill. It felt good to resist the G forces and push on with my formidable leg muscles.

The result, of course, is that my left ankle aches this morning. A bit stiff and sensitive and fuck me. This never happened when I was 47. I’m very fucking disappointed with that sore ankle now. I’m looking at it with disdain and muttering “are you a man or a mouse”?
