and so do i. and now i can! (well, i shall soon be able to). because i bought a bike! i won't be able to pick it up until monday, but it is mine! $500 for bike, helmet, brace, (detachable!) basket (with handles!), etc. i'm quite excited about it, to tell you the truth.
here it is:
i got it from lygon st cycles - mine is called elwood. like from the blues brothers. i hope carrie fisher doesn't chase me around town with a bazooka.
hee! i'm a hairy biker!

johnnypurple will be very excited about.
and i think it's probably about time that i admitted defeat on NaNo - with fewer than three days to go, i only have another 47500 words to go.

(that's 'grow-a-beard-in-october month', not 'grow-8-beards-on-your-cephalod month' - i know they're easily confused.)
enough rambling. i'm off.
ciao,
