Same here.

I just walked in from work to my wife watching the USA Pro Challenge. She then namedropped Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen when filling me in on how Tejay Van Garderen and Christian Vande Velde were doing in the race. I don't think I've ever loved her more.

[strike]Today[/strike]A couple days ago, I fredded up my FG even more:

Still don't have panniers or a trunk bag for it though.

Also, my advice for morning poops is to get that coffee in your system ASAP. Works like magic.

Tonight I am drunk, at home, (more or less) alone. I *really* wanted to go out tonight but, self-imposed moratorium, so a friend said he would go out and get drunk and we could text the whole time and it would be as close as we could get to drinking together. I just took a ****ing picture of myself doing a shot and sent it to him.

#ithinkihaveaproblem?

But it's the first time I've had anything to drink in a week so like 2 beers and a shot and I'm feeling it.

Well, if you find yourself doing this more than a few nights a week than maybe
otherwise i'd say your just dealing w life and being a regular person!

hope things improve.

Hee, thanks. This is actually the first time in memory (maybe ever?) that I've gotten for reals drunk at home by myself. So yeah, not a common occurrence. Had a bad day, work from home tomorrow so I can sleep in, might as well have a few beers and some Jim Beam.

You could use little black ones, and they'd be less noticeable.

i did black originally, but they kept breaking, pink is better because its a much stronger color

Leukybear 08-22-12 10:55 PM

Just cut up an old innertube.... it's been ages since I had to buy rubberbands.... I've tried convincing my sqrl to use them in her hair but she won't have any of it.

My buddy also uses pink on his SRAM levers. Hahaha. Looks shaweeet

spring SLR adds lots of weight. the s900 are ridiculous lightweights. like, kinda don't want to think about it, being that they are the only things that keep me from flying face first into a delivery truck at 20+ mph.

today i scored a beautiful set of hard ano tubular rims laced to immaculate shimano tricolor 600 hubs. JEWELSY

also i ordered a VX small messenger bag. ADVANCEDULATION!

also i got word that there's a bike so awesome you can't know about it until i post in the geared rigs thread in a few weeks. SUPERCRAZYSEX!

also i got 58" bars for my roof rack so i can hang bikes on the sides of my car like a bawss

Genius! I've been using ****ty tan bands that snap here and there.

#iBite + proof of speed on Garmin. You win.

I'll admit, I was probably going 5mph on this first attempt. I'll go faster once i get a Lifeproof iPhone case.

Mumonkan 08-23-12 08:02 AM

Today i got up an hour late, get to work and my boss gets to work 2 hrs late. Sweet.
2 paid hours of work and no recorded lateness. Sounds like a win to me!

solipsist716 08-23-12 09:51 AM

Today I woke up and realized I need to buy some pink rubber bands.

Today I have mismatched crankarm on my bike, on silver one black. Reminiscent of Frankenstein IT LIVES

i love the feeling 15 miles into a ride where you feel unstoppable and hills aren't even a slight inconvenience anymore
