Tonight the Wu-Tang Clan and I are just sitting down to write a 5 page research paper on the GM bailout for my 8am tomorrow. Killa beez.

Also, I hate running. I find it to be super unpleasant and boring. I much prefer cycling. :D

Shim plus bars look to be cheaper. I run a shim and have had no problems except when I tried shoving bar ends in and the bars started to tilt down.

Uhh, yeah. That's why I eventually took them off and just hammered the bars on the ground until they sat flush. Fizik tape was kind of a pain in the ass.

I do, however, have a fine bottle of this:

It will be consumed tonight, in honor of your mom's beer battered fish.

I swear to whatever god makes you quake in fear, that if you cook with that I will hunt you down and kill you.

Today I got a flat on a pitch black section of road. :|

adriano 03-28-12 11:24 PM

Encinal fixed ride last night, pretty wet but also a ton of fun. Wish I had a lower gear though, felt like crap against the wind.

Mr clean magic erasers are actually magic. My saddle and tape are actually white again :D

TimeSpills 03-29-12 12:24 AM

Today I did absolutely nothing. There goes my life.

jimmytango 03-29-12 12:31 AM

Tonight I realized that my life is full of people that care about me that, deep down, I can't ****ing stand, and that there's one goddamned person that cares about me that I like and that person doesn't want me anymore, and she was the only person who made me like me and I'm drunk and depressed and I shouldn't be posting this so ignore it.

Ahem...

Biked 20 miles, dig the new bag, work sucks, getting a hotel room payday because the wife wants me gone.

Nagrom_ 03-29-12 12:33 AM

Hang in there, bro.

hairnet 03-29-12 01:12 AM

I think you have some moral support from a lot of us here, if that means anything to you.

cc700 03-29-12 01:31 AM

It just takes time to process this kind if stuff and soon you'll be able to assess what you really want, what she really wants and how to surround yourself with people you like.

If she doesn't want you then you are wasting your time on her.
