BZST BEE

Riding with Ron the other day, we saw a faded lemon yellow Caddy boat drive past. It was possible, considering the age of the car, that at one time the yellow matched the blue in the driver's hair a little better than it does today, but another conclusion is that she didn't care. Or more to the point she didn't have time to care, because you see, Ron and I were witness to one of the rarest things in the world.

We got to see a person at the top of their game. How many times do you get to see, in person mind you, the best or most or first or greatest. Sure, we are all familiar with the nearly great, the second place, the much better than almost everybody else. But to see a person at the apex, Beethoven at the piano, Ruth or Aaron with a bat, Pele with a soccer ball, this is a once in a lifetime thrill.

This lady, fluttering along Quito at a pretty rapid pace, qualified in that category. Because you see she was no regular valley denizen, she was busy. But not the way you or I or anybody else on the planet is busy. No, she is Uber busy, busy to the tenth power; she is not just busier than you or me or anybody we know, she is the buziEST bee. We know this because she took time out, in what had to be a monumental scheduling nightmare, to select a personalized license plate to commemorate her achievement - BZST BEE.

Not BZY BEE, or even BZYR BEE (which might imply she was busier than most, but not quite ready to take Steve Jobs off the throne), but BZST BEE. Thereby proclaiming to every lazy soul she passes, that while they may have stresses and pressures and just generally lots of shit to get done, she wishes she had their slacker lifestyle and all the wonderful free time that goes with it.

So, today's post is dedicated to the BZST BEE and all the amazing things she must be getting done when not tooling down Quito at 3:30 in the afternoon on a Wednesday in her Caddy-boat.

Workout Date: 1/2/08
Workout Type: Bike
Workout Details: Approximately 10 miles (Old School) in a little under 45 minutes.
Workout Summary: Ron and I took a light, post NY Day ride, kind of a shakeout cruise. Getting back into it as it were. Good ride, lots of whining and more than a little gasping, but all-in-all a good start. Just got to follow it up.
Bait: Ron (but only if you count it as being last home, and only by a couple seconds. He crushed me on the hills)
