Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Today I am going to be making dozens and dozens of homemade pierogi for a potluck dinner party Saturday. Grandma Kaz's recipe, two varieties: cheese and sauerkraut+mushroom. So much work but soooo good.

Oh also I had an informal interview this morning which I nailed, but unfortunately the company doesn't have money to hire me, yet.

Sounds delicious... sadly... my wife cannot enjoy these glutenous little treats any more.

Am spending the afternoon in our kitchen... roast is in the oven, laid in a good supply of nog, and am about to start making rice pudding as well as the rice for dinner.

I am thinking some sauteed turnip and mustard greens would go along nicely with dinner.

Nice. I took that class and had my final Tuesday. Job order costing and time value of cash can lick my pujols.

I also finished finals today. Since I don't work until tomorrow night, I'll see how long I can go until I'm straight narcoleptic.

Scenery was amazing. Better than the cornfields I've got out here.

Today I made the 7hr trek home.

7 hours of looking up every so often to make sure my bike was still there. I don't know if I'll ever get over that unfounded paranoia.

Aside from cost, I think that's part of the reason I haven't bought a rooftop rack for my Subaru. At least with the bike on a rack on the back of the car, I can keep an eye on it.

Ate 10 Vicodin, rode to the bar and drank a Coors Light, and barely made it home before the rain started. All in all a productive day off.

Since I have a sunroof I can still see it from where I sit but something that tall only secured by the fork ends and the bottom of the back wheel can be pretty tippy.

As a former junkie, yikes...

Anyhow.

Today I did an investor tasting/party for the restaurant I'm opening as sous chef. Everyone was impressed, even though it was the easiest/simplest food on the menu. Now, after working a 15 hour day, I'm getting drunk with the chef, other sous, and the rest of the kitchen. Good times.
