Thanks for the B-Day wishes! I can't believe that in a week I'll be 27. This time I'm not having a crisis over my age though.
I really love the bike. I've had a bike for a while, but it was an old heavy thing withmessed up gears that had me worn out in three miles of riding. Yesterday I rode six out of eight miles with my BF. I wasn't tired, but my knee started to hurt, so I sat out the middle two miles while he went out and back. It was great. Then, when we got back to the apartment I was able to carry the bike up to our third floor apartment. I couldn't even get my old bike up the first flight of stairs. I'm a bit, ahem, saddle sore today, but I can't wait to go back out again.
Heather: I ran into a parked Mercedes once, boy was that embarassing when the alarm went off.
I want to see kitten pictures too!
Seek: "Yard saling", too funny, I read things wrong like that all the time! There's a billboard here in town that advertises a fishing pond, but all it says is, "Ahh, the laughter of children... I got one! I got one!" and the name of the place really small at the bottom. It has taken me the longest time to not be disturbed by it.
Noodles: I love that bicycle smilie, hopefully that won't be me though
