The irony today is this:
I strolled off the plane this morning, honing up some excuse about being late for work in light of 'extreme exhaustion and sunstroke,'
to my boss and the ever-sanguine-consuming editor.
'Cept, after a couple of parked tigers, severe sunburn, the shakes, headaches, hot and cold flushes, I don't have to lie anymore.
My running out of water on the hills, broken gearshifts, and sun has meant the Argus aftermath lives on.
I want my bed. Luckily for me, I walked into a three hour meeting instead.

Straight to bed Peas, both hands above the blankets.
When is the suffering going to end? I'll send you a chilli popper in the post.
Daverich - now that the meeting is over - and I can catch my breath - I'm off to bed...:(
Kykie - It never ends, NEVER! God is screaming 'I KEEL YOU!' to me every five seconds.
Chilli poppers are good. :)
Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate!....
....and snooooooze!
Next time, don't bother with the Argus, just have a whole day long poolside cocktail party/piss-up.
It seems to induce the same reactions but with less travel involved.
Betenoir - hello you! Drinking a shiteload of yummy, boring water. ;)
Rev - Didja see me, didja see me???
You're not one of the cyclists I ran off the road are you?
Revvie - it was you with the loudspeaker on that Bishopscourt hill wasn't it?
If you think your thighs are burnin' now fuckers......which was heard in Muizenberg apparently.
You're a card.
At the same time, however, you should have the wonderful after glow somewhere in the future of a post hectic endorphin rush.
No, I was the guy on the exercise bike on the back of a bakkie who pasted you on suikerbossie.
Jam - just a pity it coincides with my period...cancels it out. :( But coping nonetheless. x
Rev - you clown. You can't claim that! That was my cousin!
Lucky Peas gets an afternoon snooze. *jealous rage*
I passed you cousin on Suikerboossie???
Hot Pink - no such luck. Instead the boss has decided to keep me here and regale me with tales about his Argus cycling twenty years ago.
Great....
Rev - It's possible...except she was a spectator...
Exactly how many cousins are we talking about her?? or is your one cousin just really fast.
Rev - three. Now you're really confused right?
:)
You have a 3-legged cousin? That explains the speed!
sleep well! I've just come out of a 3 hour meeting in which i watched my boss lick arse quite spectacularly. i feel like i've aged about 20 years today.
