19 degrees, wind chill of 7, 20mph gusts...why NOT go for a bike ride?!

I wanted my fucking 2008 daily planner, and NOTHING was going to stop me. Off to Staples I went at 8pm. I'm so ridiculously OCD and a fan of symmetry that I specifically went through the past DECADE of my planners (why, yes, of COURSE I keep them...they're another form of diaries) last night to see which COLOR I should get this year. Can't have the same color 2 years in a row...MUST easily distinguish between the years. It's been a nice even 5 years since i've had a cranberry-colored one...so that's the color I got. Also hoping the overall positive vibe of 2003 rubs off on 2008. I told you I was nuts. Some people pray the rosary, I color-coordinate my daily planners to gather inner strength. I think it's the fastest I've ever bought one...the fact that the store closed at 9pm may have had something to do with it. I usually linger and ponder, trying to "visualize" the planners in various places, along with considering drastic changes in the TYPE of planner I'll buy. But you know what...some things -- like WNBC-NY's LIVE AT FIVE with Sue Simmons, for instance -- don't NEED to be tinkered with. They work for a reason. And, dammit, I LOVE my very specific "At A Glance" MONTHLY daily planner. I'm sure I've said this before...but I have no patience for planners where the entire month ISN'T spread out before you. Who the fuck wants to see just ONE DAY? It's all about...drumroll...perspective! I MUST have a sense of perspective about the days and weeks around my CURRENT day! OK, that's more than enough on this. All I REALLY intended to write was how impressed I am with my hardiness and stubbornness...running around on a BIKE at 8pm in 19 degree weather...just so I can start obsessively organizing my year. Who else would do that?! WHO?! And it's a good 10-minute ride each way, I'll have you know! Aren't I fucking fantastic?
