Today was intended to be a fairly light exercise day. I got up and had breakfast, then rode over to the WWC for a swim. It was a little misty, but even so 5 of the six lanes were occupied while I was swimming. I did my usual 2000 yds, finishing in under 40 minutes, which surprised me a little bit. I kept up steady pace throughout, and I pushed off the wall harder on the second half, maybe that helped. Then I rode home and got started with weeding in the backyard. I broke up the weedy soil with a large shovel, and that appeared to speed things up a bit. Also, the soil was more moist than the previous day. I worked at it for about an hour and a half (maybe longer), listening to The Three Body Problem. I went in for a break, then rode my scooter over to the pharmacy by Scripps-Poway Pkwy to pick up my prescription for the skin treatment cream. Back home, eating some lunch, then heading back into the yard for the second weeding session of about 75-90 minutes. The weeds are getting dense where I'm cleaning them out, and that's slowing me down. I estimate at least another 2-3 days to finish this bed, then it will be time to put the ground cloth down. Later in the afternoon, I met Avi at Karl Strauss for a beer. Talked for a while with Paul Bruinsma and saw Jason Jolly for the first time in a long time. Avi, Britt, Ed, Nathan Fei, and Andre were also there. When I got home, I went for a 2 mile walk after dinner, down by the park where they had a big event associated with kids' flag football.
