new bike

so i got a new bike.

i know wht you're thinking, how many does THAT make, but this one is slightly different. This one has a grand total of 17$ invested. Its an old P.O.S. gitane that got donated with a rear freewheel wheel and a crank, seat, seatpost, headset and stem. I scavanged the rest from my bone box at work. only purchases were chain and brake, totaling 17$. I think i'm gonna give it to the wife, tho it is a tad big for her. What the hey, it's better than spending a piss load of money on a bike that doesn't get used, like many richbitch bike shop patrons. Riding the bike is SUPER fun, and has resparked my longing to ride. Think i'll be dusting off the 1x speed cross and go for a little ridezies this evening.

i really need to keep up on this thing.

so lately, here's the run down:

Comic books. Lots of 'em. Pretty stoked on Blackest Night, captain america:reborn, and hulk and daredevil.

Tried my hand at doing merch for a band. I would rather have been kicked square in the nuts, so i welched out on half of the agreement. 's ok though cuz i got virtually none of what i was told i would get, so is it really welching?

Riding my bike? Nooooooooooot exactly. I've been riding it for transportation. But as far as suited up and hammering out a couple of intervals? Nope. Do i feel bad about it now? Nope. Will i feel bd about it when i'm weeking softly in the shower after turning in a 19th place finish for every race during cross season. Probably.

I have been enjoying tuesdays off. It's sweet. Looking forward to Interbike and some quality vacation time.

What else? Cut the piss out of my finger at work, and i think my finger might be turning into a zombie finger. That's pretty sweet.
