lonely helmets and missing bikes

i was talking to my little brother tonight about triathlons. he's planning to do one with me this summer. granted that's banking on the fact that i'm going to do one this summer. which i intend to, unless of course i can't finish all the training. i remembered tonight while kyle was talking about his biking skills, that i don't have a bike. some jerk stole it from behind my house back in october. maybe it was september, i don't remember exactly. needless to say, i don't have a bike, which makes training for a triathlon a bit difficult, since the bike is required for 1/3 of the race. hopefully, i'll be able to find a good deal on one so i don't have to break the bank to get it. but it made me think, my helmet has probably been lonely just sitting out on my wire storage unit. all alone, unused, wondering if it'll ever get to feel the wind running over it's blue shiny surface again. i feel for it. i wonder when the next time i'll be able to feel the wind on my face, running through the holes and through my hair. really, it all stems from the fact that it was beautiful outside today, and i would have liked to have gone for a ride. oh well, soon helmet, soon. i promise.
