Today I:
Today my debit card was declined, so I went online to check my balance: $4.21. And I get paid next on the 15th.
Lean times for kaz. Good thing the show I want to go to tomorrow is free.

If I even mentioned doing anything for our anniversary, my wife would laugh in my face. We have a hard time just remembering the date. My wife is awesome.

I hate the low balance blues. Just got done surviving a week @ $1.89. Today was first day with dough and now I have eaten so much it kinda hurts a little.

Today I: am back at work and recovering after an intense weekend + monday + tuesday of cycling in LA. Legs, surprisingly, are feeling pretty good. Random things:
-Mt. Baldy was ****ing epic. Bring lights next time. Maybe think about not doing it in winter when it snows.
-LA Wolfpack Hustle is brutal. One of my highest average watt rides to date - felt like a proper race complete with nutty pace lines, attacks, and sprints. Have to incorporate some of this style into our SF chapter.
-LA is actually a beautiful place to ride if you know where to go (Palos Verdes, Griffith, Santa Monica Hills, parts of Long Beach, etc).
-LA drivers are ****ing oblivious to cyclists.
-LA has amazing food/beer.
-The Marathon Stick (aka " Jandro's flexy dild' ") was the MVP of the trip and was shared amongst our crew after every ride. If you don't have one, get one.
-Being back at work sucks.
-I'm happy to see my gf, I missed her (queue "d'awwww").
-If you have a chance, go ride in LA, you wont regret it. If you think you can hang, do Wolfpack. Even if you get dropped, it's a hell of an experience.
GIFs, in nor particular order.



Over and out.

Today I broke up a fight between two 12-year old girls on the street corner near the shop. They were afraid of me, acting as though the Creature from the Black Lagoon just crawled from the harbor. It was awesome.
For sure I would be drafting the entire ride. It was always a treat to get on Roadblock's wheel because he is one of only a few guys taller than me in the LA "scene". Everybody needs to come out for the Marathon Crash Race. I probably wont try to race again but it still a blast.

Today I cleaned my room because last night I found one of these in it. Freaked me out so much that I had to kill it and whiskey myself to sleep in the living room.
