Last day

Today was my last day at the Board. I'm taking leave without pay for the summer and am going to be working as a park ranger for nyc parks. Phew.

I've needed a break for a long time.

And tomorrow morning we're going to Wisconsin for a few days to visit the family. If my neck didn't feel as if it were going explode, I'd be the happiest man alive. But my neck feels as if it is going to explode.

With the certainty of the sun rising in the east and the spring following the summer, I injure myself roughly twice a year. This time? My neck. A bicycling injury - overused and under stretched. I've done it before. Feels like a 3-day injury. Not too bad.
