Today I (v2):

Was riding down Hawthorne today and some Dbag zipped right past me about 3-4 inches away from my handlebars. Did the exact same thing to some girl that was ahead by about a block or so, I tried to catch up to him to start some **** with him but no surprise, he was speeding and weaving through traffic and couldn't get close enough. I don't think I've ever been that livid with a driver.
Also picked me up a Wald basket for the Leader but I'm gonna have to drill some holes to make it fit the 31.8 bars.

Today I was about to take off on my ride home from work when I noticed that the QR on my brake was flipped open. I think someone is ****ing with me.

Today I rode down to a Car-Free-Day area (about 25 km from my home),
later then on my way back home, my friend called me to stop-by to his home and help him with the chain problem on his peppermint KHS

today, ive finally come to the conclusion that any and all snacks or foods hot, spicy, jalapeno or habanero ect... just arent hot or spicy and make me sad, like jerky or other snacks at stores or menu items listed as being hot.
Same goes for chinese food or thai places ect... i ask for extra hot and it just isnt enough... even at filibertos in phoenix id ask for fresh sliced jalapenos in my burritos and it just doesnt cut it..... i throw tons of chayanne pepper, chili peppers or sriracha in my foods, it seems only when i cook at home i can come close.
I am a sad panda.
once id like to be able to buy a snack and have it BURRRRN so good

i probably am 
i also require serious amounts of sodium in my foods for me to taste it as well
i honestly think it boils down to my great grandma who raised me, she was in her 70's/80's... cant remember but, her lack of taste buds and cooking.
i love salt, i love spicey/hot.
im a cook so i know what something should taste like salted properly, but to me im like WTF MAN I TASTE NOTHING!. sucks so much, especially when me and the gf are making food...

Having your partner's teenage son live with you for 9 months is no picnic either. Immature and ungrateful little brat.

Today I bought a new French press so I can finally make a drinkable cup of coffee at home again. The instant stuff holds up to its marketing: remarkably similar to a cup of coffee. Except it tastes like burning dirt.
