after a day of bicycling yesterday, i woke up a bit sore. my legs obviously, but also my left shoulder (where the bag strap dug in) and my left wrist (for some strange reason). today was a day of nothingness. i wanted to go out but had no reason to, so i just stayed indoors all day and tried to keep myself warm.

in the late afternoon began two football playoff games: jets vs. the bengal tigers, eagles vs. the cowboys. i fell asleep during the first one, woke up to fix myself some dinner (some mantou buns stuffed with spicy tofu), then watched the second game. in both instances the outcome wasn't what i wanted: i rooted against the jets and they beat the tigers, i rooted against the cowboys and they beat the eagles. here's hoping the pats have better luck tomorrow against the ravens (seems like the animal teams are losing).
