whoosh is the sound of summer being over
I finally bought a "new" bike! I got tired of trawling through Craigslist trying to get lucky, so I hit the bike shops, which were pricey, but one awesome bike store owner (whose store is conveniently right next door to a local comic book shop) advised me to check the pawn shops in the area ( Read more... ) -

So I didn't go to San Diego this weekend...
...but I thought, I could still kind of pretend. Keep up with my friends who were, reading tweets, reading news, looking at con pics, not bathing so I smelled my own reek for a few days, etc ( Read more... ) -
Always nice to know it's not just you
One of my friends tweeted an "Oh, God, why is this me?!?" link to this article from EYE WEEKLY.
I found the whole thing like listening to a really good tarot card reader describe my life to me. Some things were more spot-on than others, but I definitely found this this amusing in light of recent events:
