today im cutting a million pieces of foamcore to make a mc escher style diorama, xactos hurt after the 300th cut.

Dude, I used to do a TON of stenciling, I used to sit down and cut for 10 hours straight. I know those feels.

I lolled at Lance

Mumonkan 01-26-13 11:35 PM

today i got robbed.



went to the movies with a group of friends, they decided movie 43 was what we would see. "sure" i thought, remember the preview having good actors in it

worst movie i have ever seen, hands down. i would rather watch that vimeo edit of 5 idiots doing a circle in a parking lot "to simulate a velodrome" for 8 hours non stop.

im embarrassed for myself, for having wasted so much money on it, and for the actors for having participated in such trash.

or maybe i just had a stroke and this is all in my head...

Jaytron 01-26-13 11:42 PM

Today I rode in circles.

Ran a 13.6s flying 200m... much slower than last year :(

jimmytango 01-27-13 01:00 AM

Tonight I reminded myself just how much Sid Meier's Civilization can suck away the hours. Oops.

Its addictive. If I had the money, I would have so many more. Next piece has to be a cover up though, so I'll be getting 2.1. All I know is that I want something to do with bikes to get rid of this ****ing reminder on my chest.

Today I rode 135 miles and ate amazing beef tongue.

Haha, just one of the reasons I haven't gotten one.

Maybe leave it as a reminder of things never to do again in your life? Kind of a visual life lesson?

I got a gift cert. for a tattoo for Christmas, working with the artist now on a design.

Nope. I mean, its not a name, which I will never do. Its just a small one on my chest, and after what happened to me, I want every little memory of that **** erased.

Its not that I even regret getting it, I just don't want to see it, and would much prefer to see something else.

My artist refuses to do even symbolic tattoos of girfriends/boyfriends/spouses/etc because she thinks it's bad juju. For the first time, I have an idea for my next tattoo but not the money to start it. Usually it takes me a while to figure out what I want but this time as soon as I was done with the half sleeve I knew what I wanted next. Well, I also want to extend the sleeve but I may never do that for fear of being able to get a job, heh.

This weekend has sucked. Was completely ****ed by this sickness and missed our Tiny Fix bar night last night. BF came over to keep me company and we ordered pizza from a new place. An hour and 40 minutes later it finally shows up, ice cold. (I am not a picky person but this was so cold and congealed we had to throw it in the oven to heat it back up.) At least they are refunding the credit card charge after we complained, so the ****ty cold pizza was free.

My artist is a really good friend, and since it was back towards the beginning of his professional career, he gave us a good deal on it. And a month or two ago, he told me he would give me another really good deal on a cover up. Can't really pass it up, especially since I want it gone. Only thing is, I have no idea what I want it covered up with. Something to do with bikes, just no clue what aspect of them to ink up.

But not too late for some post ride refreshments.
https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphot...26667052_n.jpg


Finished with around 85 miles. The legs are toast, but I couldn't have planned a better day!

misskaz 01-27-13 11:28 AM

That sounds awesome except for the gravel on a track bike. Impressed, I think? ;)
