Major suppage of sqrls at the neighborhood bar tonight. Did not intend to stay there so long. Now, major sleepage.

Also +1 about the boyfriend spider. Tell her to hit it with a book and go back to sleep. *just remembered why I'm single*

Today I rode 20 miles, passing a couple of bike shops to get various things done. Rode with a wheel on my back; popped my bro's tube yesterday during a test drive; too lazy to patch it up myself, but wasn't at all lazy to ride 8 miles away to get the tube replaced. Passed by a dude on a folding bike. I like seeing folding and track bikes on the street.

Today I loosened my chain slightly before riding to work. I couldn't believe how much quieter my bike is now. The chain never really felt too tight before, but it was definitely noisy back at the cog. I can barely hear it now.

The gun wasn't pointed at me, he just had it in his hand. He wasn't awarded the split second it would have taken to pull the trigger because I reacted before he was even in control of what he was doing.

Today, oatmeal is starting to taste ok to me.

WHAT IS HAPPENING.

LessonLearned 09-14-12 08:54 AM

oatmeal is great when made with milk and real maple syrup

Today I'm probably going to pickup a pair of SIDI Dom5's. Clipless, brah. Stoked, brah.

prooftheory 09-14-12 08:58 AM

Oatmeal is also good with ice cream.

Mumonkan 09-14-12 09:06 AM

plain oatmeal sucks and is boring, gotta add some jazz and make it with milk to make it good

after fixing my bars, this appeared on my computer screen:

Costa Rican joint by my crib sells awesome milkshakes. Banana oatmeal is my current favorite.

today i am conflicted. this is going to be a really hard weekend in my personal life, a fun weekend socially, and a stressful weekend work-wise (a consulting gig i thought had died out is starting up again).

Today I lost my mind trying to explain to a customer that a freewheel can be used on a fixed hub. I even physically showed him that it can be done. He refused to believe me and got frustrated.

**** you, go bother the idiots at Superb.

For a second I thought he was requesting a freewheel on a free hub. My mind almost melted.

Seriously though how do some people make it through life with no reasoning skills at all, and how hard is life when that is the case?

Scrodzilla 09-14-12 09:59 AM

If ignorance is bliss, I'd rather be smart, pissed an uncomfortable.

Dangit! I didn't get no toy! Whatever, I promptly got my order and the wheel works great. Can't complain (even though I just kinda did, sorry). Won't be my last RG order.

Nagrom_ 09-14-12 11:13 AM

Got my rim from scrod today. Decided I didn't want to bother polishing the black rim to silver, so I ordered a 32h hub, and a few more spokes/nipples. Cool thing about radial lacing is that regardless of spoke count, the same hoop/hub combo is always the same spoke length.

Just placed an order for 24 cheapo spokes/nipples from scrod, that use to lace up the original rim, after i rattle can it black again, then I'll throw it on CL and recoup some of my losses.
