Out of Hibernation

Darlin’ don’t you go and cut your hair
Do you think it’s gonna make him change?

Spring is on the way. Time to stop hibernatin’. I got a haircut. A bowl cut…or pasta strainer cut…courtesy of Charlie. Thanks Chawles! The poor ole chap was here for almost a month and I’m pretty sure he is ready to make a book and subsequent horror film about his experience…it’s called Misery. He never knew how loud I could fart before he came to live with us.


Yesterday was our first day of the spring slam at the bike shop. Temps got into the mid 40s, so people started coming out of their holes.

We were flooded with repairs, and since I am one of two mechanics at the shop, I was real busy. People were out riding bikes!…and getting flats! Handled a few flat fixes and customers in between doing the tune-ups and part replacements that had already been scheduled. It felt like I was all over the place. Didn’t even have time to eat lunch, but it was exciting that people were actually coming into the shop.

Since our shop is in a neighborhood consisting of a lot of different immigrant communities, you really never know who is going to pop in and what language you will be trying to navigate around in an attempt to explain the repair. There is an African (don’t know what country) man that sometimes comes in, and we don’t understand each other at all. I end up having to point at things and say “bad.”

Up until this point the winter had been really slow, and I just get to stay back in the dungeon listening to NPR and fixing bikes. I have a hunch that is going to change very quickly in the next couple of weeks.

OH BOY! Who wouldn’t prefer pickles?

Our adorable next door neighbors are having an Oscar party right now. I haven’t seen Jared in about 45 minutes. I suspect that he got sucked into the gay boy vortex while he was enjoying his evening cigarette and is over their drinking vodka crans. AVATAR FTW!

My style is UFO
Totally unknown
You can’t fuck with my new zef flow
I’m hard to miss
“You can’t do this, you can’t do that”
Yeah, fuckin’ who said so?…..Yo, I’M A NINJA!!!

Here is the new Rick Rollolololololol.

    Wow, the coolest guy did pretty much everything I thought would make me popular in 6th grade. The yo-yo tricks were just gratuitous though. C’mon, leave some cool for the rest of us.
