Mileage/Age = Insanity + Fatigue

Grinding them out: 2012 total - 5,217.62 mi; 2013 YTD - 5,031.13 mi ... 2 months 21 days left.

When the hell did this become so difficult?

Weather turning, temps falling, fatigue settin' in. Will crank the pedals indoors or out (those indoor miles suck; thank goodness for netflix). Can't figure out how I ever managed consecutive 10,000 mile years when I was in my 40s (almost all THOSE miles on the road). Seems a distant memory. Why do 6,000 miles feel worse then 10,000?

This is probably symptomatic of OCD. Wonder how much I've spent on tires, chains and cassettes in the past twelve years? .... Is that capuccino still warm? Wasn't I boiling some eggs? Do I have a writing assignment for a client due today? Did I save the warranty card for my knees and hips? Am I nuts?
