A great ride home

February 4th, 2011
I had an awesome ride home last night.  I got off the train at Roma St and decided to wear my yellow tint glasses instead of my sunnies.  I sent MaxBabe a text message letting her know I was on my way.  Off I rode, forgetting to turn on my GPS.  I got t… more »

I ran over a bird with my bike today, on my way home from work. I'm very upset by it. I don't want to write anything more about it right now. I feel awful. :'( :no: more »
