Another electronic disaster and a new friend

I rode into Kerrville last night after a lovely 50 mile ride through Texas hill country, feeling quite pleased with myself because we had two significant climbs (over a mile each and topping out at 15% grade) and I had done them easily and was feeling strong. The hotel, the YO Ranch, is much nicer than our usual bland digs, and I had even found wheatgrass juice in town and had just downed a double shot. So the world looked pretty good.

Then I hopped into the hot tub in my bike clothes - with my cell phone in my pocket.

Bye bye cell phone. Verizon will be sending me a new one but not until Monday (it was insured) and all my numbers are gonzo. So, if you are reading this, I need everybodies cell phone information all over again. Please emailthe numbers! I had addresses in there too so please include those. I am embarassed to admit I don't ven know my own kids cell numbers by heart. Gar, do you have a master list from the wedding that you can email me?

So, feeling pretty crummy, I sought out a yoga class. Jackie, the teacher, turned out to be a jewel of a woman who spent the day with me. We had lunch at a vegetarian restaurant and then she took me to Starbucks for a decaf, Frappachino, light with sugar free caramel syrup. I feel much better. Yoga and Starbucks, a winning combination!
