I\’m watching the forecast with a certain amount of anxiety. It looks like tomorrow will be stormy; and I wanted to go for an early-morning ride!

You see, the moon will be at the full. A full moon on the Fourth of July! When might that happen again? As always, I\’m eager for the sight of that moon over the river, lighting up the water.

I can\’t do anything but wait and see what happens. If it\’s pouring when my alarm clock goes off, probably the best thing to do will be to go back to sleep. If it isn\’t raining, I\’ll check the NOAA site. Maybe I\’ll get lucky, and there will be a break in the weather.

I might have to resort to the trainer to get in some pedaling tomorrow. Maybe I\’ll ride in the trainer for a while this afternoon. I did almost no riding so far today; just to take the hybrid in to the shop (I think the brake pads are wearing out). I had decided to skip the ride to the salvage store.

However the weather turns out tomorrow, I\’m ready for the Fourth of July. Several days ago I bought a pint of Cherry Garcia® ice cream. I put it away for the Fourth. It\’s not easy for me to resist ice cream like that; but if I put my mind to it, I can do it.

I still had a couple of servings\’ worth of Sweet and Sour Hot Dogs in the freezer; I put the container down in the fridge to thaw.

Sheesh, look at that. Ice cream + Sweet and Sour Hot Dogs. Not what I ought to be eating, that\’s for sure. Weather isn\’t the only thing that needs watching!
