Bacon, Bacon, Bacon

A little under 18 hours until I ride 39 miles on my sweet new bike.

This morning I 'ran' 1.5 miles before work. Running in the morning is great, it sets up your day and you feel energized. The downside is that you feel like you really accomplished something so why go to work. Basically, I peaked too early and knew that the day would not get any better.

Fortunately for me the day did get better or at least did not get worse. I had some good conversations, completed some quality reviews, and I attended an ACLU board meeting. I even had bacon and eggs (yes eggs) on my breakfast bagel. Go bacon!

Yesterday, I forwent a bacon tasting so that I could workout. I know at this point you are saying how can I claim to love bacon and yet give up a golden opportunity. As I write, I sigh as I think about the divine qualities of bacon, particularly slab bacon.

NOTE: The following should be sung to the tune of O'Tannenbaum.

Oh bacon bacon
Oh bacon bacon
How delicious is your flavor.

I already paid to workout and the bacon tasting was $25. I can buy a lot of bacon for $25, even gourmet bacon.
