Psydde is my boy and has been guilting the hell out of me for not visiting his shop. So noon meal, ride up to the corsetry, hang out a minute, have a drink, grab a sparks from a deli, hit reload, socialize, race, drink. In exactly that order.

more nifty thoughts:
1) April Fools Race was fun, but I didn't stay long for the after party cus unless riding a tandem gets you extra points I know I didn't win anything. and I was tired. but yeah, sweet race :-)
2) riding fixed after riding stoker on a single speed tandem with the seat way too low = way weird.
3) I lost my gloves somewhere along the way...I think at/around Tattooed Mom's. it's all good, but kinda cus they were from Australia.

4) I thought I was gonna be out of town this weekend, but I'm not, so technically I'm available for April Fools Race. still undecided if it's a good idea to go. I've never raced before so would probably be looking for someone to tag along with if I go.

that is all.
do you like two gallants? i think they'll be coming around here soon.

never heard of them but just checked them out on myspace. sounds pretty nifty (I think I need a new word...), though I'm usually more into chicks than dudes music-wise. looks like they're touring with les claypool. interesting. any other suggestions?

Um, on a folk level? Cloud Cult, but they're not exactly folk...they have a female vocalist who probably sings about 1/4 of their songs.
