Racing to the phone – on what turned out to be a political polling call – has resulted in the first injury of the trip.
I dashed to get the phone and hit my small toe rather significantly against a piece of furniture (Furniture: 1, Foot: 0). The fact that the call was from the [expletive deleted] [fill in the blank] Party literally added insult to injury. Since I will not tell them how I plan to vote, I find these phone calls annoying. They seemed to have figured that out and extracted a revenge: I get wounded and they did not want to talk to me anyway – they spoke to my beloved travel companion (BTC).
It is now turning a lovely(?) shade of purple. I can walk on it without issue but have not put shoes on yet. It will not impact the trip, but may limit the weekend events. We had talked about hitting the other bike classic tomorrow morning (same distance, fewer hills) but this has caused a serious revisitation of that.
That sound you hear? People who know me falling over in shock that I would possibly attend two consecutive events involving physical activity.
