When I rock my Porkchop Sandwiches or Body Massage shirt, people think it's just arbitrary ironic words. Now and again tho I get that look like "Yeah, I know." Makes me feel a little warm and fuzzy inside.

Today Angie upgraded me to a Soma cog for my buddy's conversion for free because the cro-mo 20t cogs were out of stock. Retrogression rocks.

Today I'm fixing my glasses with Krazy Glue. Do you guys think red Loctite would work better?

Don't forget to use a torque wrench and start a thread to chronicle your progress.

10mi pub crawl tonight with some hot chicks. due to some celestial convergence, i was the only guy to show up to the Monday night ride.

on the other hand, apparently it's cold enough for me to need to moisturize. calluses started cracking/bleeding, so annoying.

Glasses are cured. In some ways they're actually better than ever because the lens/plastic string that's glued together shouldn't be able to fall out anymore.

1st day of no car and full time commuting on my bike. Definitely have to get used to carrying a backpack all the time.

My ride to work made my day so much better. I got to work in a really good mood.
