It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

I've only ever seen an episode of that show, and for whatever reason Fox decided to play the FX show and bleep out more than I can handle in any good entertainment consumption.

But this weekend proved the title of show.

After waking up well after noon on Sunday, it was eggs for breakfast, some horsing around online and finally taking my first 12-mile bike ride of the season. It's actually my first bike ride of the year. Last summer it was bike riding weekly, but it's worked a little different this year, and so yesterday was the first.

The bike path along the Schuylkill River is coming along great, with the landscaping making it much nicer, especially over by the Art Museum.

The riverfront "path" was bustling with people, as usual, but more notable was the shear number of people. It seems people used to flee the city for the beach and whatnot each summer.

I've noticed the city seems much busier all the time, which has to be a good sign.

Something is going right here. While that can't be said for all of the city, Center City is certainly doing well.

Last night felt like a nice spring even, but my walk with the dogs made me think autumn, with the tree bark falling along Pine and plenty of leaves that hung on through the winter and spring, and I guess some that blew out of the cemeteries, brown on the sidewalks.

But adding to the effect was the full moon against a deep blue night with bands of gray clouds moving swiftly in front of it. I should have gone to the Delaware waterfront for a bit and watched the night sky.

I suppose the full moon may be why it's 2:37 a.m. and I'm still up, after 3 nights of decreased sleep and 3 days of increased activity, including shaking my groove thing on the dance floor for several hours, the 12-mile bike ride and the gym workout to boot.

We'll see how my work day goes in the morning ...
