cheezy poofs

Just some pictures to show all of yall what i've been doing lately.

Hanging out with my sweet sweet mother, I think at this moment we were scarfing down some home made pretzels. Divine! Mom and Dad are going on a cruise soon, how awesome would that be? To flee the country with the one you love? Enjoy it mom, and dont worry about the boy i'll take care of him.



Umm Just a reminder that my cats are still amazing. Elton gets larger every day. Coop has been sick lately, throwing up a lot. Not sure what to do about it :(



And here my friends... here is what i've really been doing the past few days. Riding my freaking new bike man. I have a friend who is incredibly bike savvy and very kind and helpful to me. I was having trouble getting all the parts for my pretty red Bianchi frame because of stupid complications with the fork. The frame i'm riding on now is actually one I bought at a yard sale a couple years ago, then I sold it to Seth. And it's been decorating his room ever since. We took it off the wall and some how managed to pull together all the parts needed to make this pretty baby glide. It was originally a 10 speed but im riding it as a fixed gear. Don't worry mom and dad I have a front brake on it. I'm really trying not to use the brake though actually and I can seriously feel my legs getting stronger after only 3 days of riding it. It feels incredible. Seth insists that I must keep the front brake on there so that I can continue to live and love all of you. I know its February and its bloody cold outside but with some gloves and a coat its perfect. Riding my bike has made me want to be a better driver. It's funny to see all the stupid things that people in cars do, things that I know I do or have done before. You really really have to watch out and make sure you are careful and make sure the cars can see you. Last night when I was riding in the bike lane on a very well lit road, some dumb broad FLINGS OPEN her car door right in front of me, literally a foot away from me I could been hurt real bad but I swerved and ripped some expensive pumas haha. Oh well. More bike stories to come.
