Oh Lordie...

i am not the most decisive person. i go back and forth like a game of pong. i will make the most definitive-sounding statement ever (i.e.: i'm NOT going to nationals. you can't MAKE me) but with very little persuasion my iron determination will corrode faster than an underwater penny. actually, this very frequently involves national races. fer'example:

collegiate mountain bike natz '07. i shilly-shallied trying to decide whether to make the trek from CH to LMC for so long that i finally got left. really. i said 'yes', he said 'later'. i had to cool my fury by going off and partying at ASU all weekend.
collegiate road natz '08. i pretty much said no to this one. and then maybe. and then 'ehhhh....'. and then no, again.
open mtb natz '08. i was totally going to do the french broad classic instead. totally. it was in town. i could win money. it was so duh! except then...someone suggested vermont. why not? because...oh, okay.
collegiate mtb natz '08. no question! go brevard! woooot!

so what's my point? um, it seems in this eleventh hour that i am actually going to fort collins for road nationals. ick. oh, it gets worse. we're driving. oh, it gets worse still. i can't even race road!! i get dropped by fat-bottomed girls! i'm also missing miz squirrel's stumpjump (but everyone else should go. it'll be superb, no doubt.)

there are so many reasons why i don't want to do this! i haven't even listed half of them yet! but the weirdest thing? i'm actually starting to kind of look forward to it. i told you i'm indecisive.
