I was really looking forward to Tour de Fat this year. I even bought a glittering green cape for it. Ran into Aaron during the parade.
When I came back in the afternoon, I saw Aaron, but avoided him. I knew he was going to ask what happened to the cape. Why would you buy a glittering green cape and not wear it? I also knew the answer was “Things have changed since this morning”.
This is a problem. When things get tough like this, I retreat. I know I’m going to retreat even further in the coming days. Don’t let me.
