Nothin' Much

Nothing too wildly exciting to blog about tonight. But it has been a few days, so I thought I better at least make an effort at it.

Brad has been diligently biking each day and is now highly efficient with is pedals. I on the other hand still need a little practice. Monday night I went for a ride around the neighborhood and actually did pretty well...until Evie got involved. Lucy was running along with me while Evie towed Myles on his skateboard. We were almost home and Lucy ran off into the park to go frolic with another four legged friend. Being as she is deaf, of course calling her back really doesn't work. So I unclipped my feet and straddled my bike to take Evie's leash from Myles so that he could go catch Lu. I even wrapped her leash around my hand a few times to make sure I had a good grasp of it. Well Evie decided that she wanted to go and frolic too, and she wasn't going to let little old me get in her way. So she took off like a rocket!! I was pulled off my feet, my bike dragging between my legs, I land on the curb with my knee, and continue being dragged by Evie aka The Incredible Hulk. Finally the leash unraveled from my hand and I was free to lay on the ground and take inventory to make sure I was still in once piece. As if this little experience weren't enough on its own, their were of course people at the park looking at me like I had two heads. I am sure they were wondering how such a skinny dog could drag such a large gal!
