Wow... I've missed a lot. I'll take it one at a time:

Fast food rocks. I've eaten at/worked in some of the best restaurants in the country and still chow down White Castle and 3am taquerias on the regular.

I used to be stupidly fat too. I started working 12hrs/day, using "illegal stimulants" to stay awake, and not eating. Not the healthiest way to drop 100lbs in a year but it works.

Today was my first ride in snow, the coldest ride I've ever had, and my first ride with a rack and panniers. Riding through slush and snow is like a roller coaster. It's horrifying and awesomely fun at the same time.

My new tights finally came in the mail. They're rad. Comfortable as hell.
