• This is Maya, or as I tend to call her ... my furry Valentine (I enjoy Frankie's "My Funny Valentine" ... so I decided to adapt to my Maya).  We went for quite a few walks this past weekend and it tired us both out, so we ended up napping in the same bed - although when I fell asleep I was alone.  Thanks to her, and taking those walks I am recovering much more quickly from my broken leg.  I have no limp now, well except when I sit for long periods of time and then get up ... I need to warm up.  I also discovered that there is no way in hell that I will able to wear heels again until I take the screws and rod out of my leg, I tried it last week at work and 30 minutes into it I could swear that the screws on the bottom were ready to bust out of my leg (good thing I took my flats ... which I hate ... miss my heels).

  Plus when I go to my daily Sunday Disneyland meet I walk from the parking structure to the park, so that's a good 20 minute walk that wakes me up as I approach the happiest place on Earth!  Even better is that through my Disney forum I have met a great group of folks, the common thread being that we just adore Disney to an outrageous degree ... but enjoy it we do ... every Sunday at Noon ... the Hub on Main Street folks ... if you're ever interested.  So, where was I going with this?

  Oh yeah, I have found a passion recently - something that I was sorely lacking for quite some time.  I found that some of my fellow Disney folks were avid bike riders and have decided to delve back into bike riding.  Of course I need to buy a new bike, because you can't be riding along on a beach cruiser - well I don't have the strength at the moment to do it.  It does feel great to be out there again riding though, and because of this I have started to prepare myself for the AIDS Lifecycle ride coming around next year in June.  A whole week to get from San Francisco to Los Angeles - which is good since I do live in Los Angeles ... that way my family can pick up my collapsed body and take me home to my bed.  I am just so psyched about this and can't wait, because how many people can say they biked from San Francisco to Los Angeles?  Not many, and I'll be one of the not many ... plus hopefully some of those Disney folks will be joining me as well ... so that will be even better!

  
  My pearly pink beach cruiser!

  For now I'm just looking forward to my Disneyland meeting this Sunday, lots of people from out of town that I'm looking forward to meeting will be there ... plus we'll be wearing our Crocs!  Some of the most ugliest shoes, but quite comfortable ... so it doesn't matter!
