Snowball

As you all might know, temperatures recently plummeted here and we’ve officially nose-dived into winter. Despite the cold, I still see a lot of people out riding bikes. These winter warriors inspired me to ride the 10 mile commute up to work the other day instead of taking the train. I discovered that riding in the cold is really not so bad after the first mile. I think getting out the door is actually the worst part.

Commuting to work by bike really did make my entire day better. I also arrived almost an hour early and got to go to Dunkin Donuts, so the bike is faster and provides me with more time to eat and drink coffee. The ride back was a little less enjoyable in the wind at night. It made me all the more excited to move closer to my pseudo-job because it will provide me with about 4 more hours a day to do something other than work.

I might even be able to make a post or two when we move. I have decided to invest the majority of my current lackluster writing energy into finishing up the Crazy Guy on a Bike Journal for the last tour. Hopefully Jared will take up the slack here on der blog. If not, oh well. Until then, I will let you take pleasure in this giant snowball that I hand-crafted last night on the way home from work. You can take even more pleasure in the fact that I nailed Jared with it when he opened the front door. Schadenfreude baby!

    Jared, you look even more like John Lennon in that outfit surrounded by gray skies and snow.

      That’s what I’m striving towards. Maybe I’ll get a small dog and pamper it.

        that thing was so hard-packed by the time i got home…i considered aiming for the face but thought better of it because it could have given you a black eye.
