awesome! wow that's two weeks and counting. if only i were there too...one day soon  ;D

i remember what i was like around then, first time around. i was doing pretty good, still excited from the initial start and starting to feel untouchable. a week later, still feeling free and easy and a little too big-headed and pig-headed for my own good, i self-paskened i was allowed to watch a certain movie b/c i was beyond all that already and i'd be fine. whoops. i held on but barely- from then on it was kind of a downward slide leading to my fall on day 50.
moral of the story: shouldn't have let my guard down.

the fact that you reached where you are now is amazing. i give you a Beracha that that feeling stays with you and you continue to be excited. keep on trucking bro.

highs are good so long as you're keeping watch.

see, going down a huge hill on a bicycle is great b/c you can coast on that when you get to a rough patch. so you whiz down it. but you still got to keep an eye out and a hand on the brake in case a car comes out of nowhere.
