Stupid Hurts

I have been putting off anouncing this, because it does seem a little unrealistic, but I am moving to Seattle Washington next week.

Jake and I are moving in together. Of course this might be a mistake, last time we tried to move in together, I ended up with epilepsy, and he ended up with tuberculous. And most importantly someone died.

While walking into the device support center for my cell phone I knew this was going to be interesting. Luckily our exchange was brief, but I could tell the agent was trying his best to stifle a smile the entire time as he handed me my a new phone.

Earlier that day I dropped my phone off for repair due to a short it had in when I made calls. Right after I walked out of the device support center, I remembered the video clip of a chick getting a Ecstasy pill shoved of her ass, a friend of mind sent me, and the very graphic drunk text I recently got, I recently got from an ex.

Seeing as they both goth transferred over to the new phone. I can only assumed at least the video got watched. This then reminded me of my associate who works at a local camera store who usually has awesome stories and copies of pictures he assumed people forgot they had on the roll.

Speaking of which I made it a point to take a few minutes to get out and take a few pictures. This is the second time I have gotten out to shoot recently, but I lost the entire first batch because my ISO settings where incorrect for the lighting conditions. I think once I get back into the habit of shooting on a regular basis I will be less likely to make such a simple mistake.

I was pretty sore most of the day yesterday. I have realized that slow days make the fast days possible, and that I can’t go balls out every single day.

Luckily for a big chunk of the day I had a generous [tag]tailwind[/tag] from the south. At one point I was beating along at just a hair over 30 miles an hour. I saw a [tag]cop[/tag] sitting over the the grass to my left, and I assumed he would ignore me since I was on a bicycle. Then I see him raise his [tag]radar[/tag] gun and shoot me. I know he shot me because as I blitzed past him I saw him staring at the display on the radar gun clearly baffled. I could not help but smile to myself about that one for the rest of the day.

Somewhere after 50 miles I couldn’t get back onto my pace. I figured since I wasn’t going to get into a comfortable groove I may as well see how far I can go before I have to quit. I didn’t really think that one through very well. Because at this point I had eaten most of my snacks and was nearly out of water from fending off several dogs earlier in the day.

Realizing this after the 70 mile mark I decided to push ahead anyway. And thing were going great until my headlight started to get dim and I could see less and less of the road. Then I noticed all of the lights were getting dim, and I was having problems keeping my bike on the road. After a few more miles I realized what was happening. I was going blind. This had happened before once at a [tag]track[/tag] meet, so I knew what I had to do. Find food and water quickly, luckily for me I passed a well placed all night [tag]MacDonald’s[/tag] and was was able to rest and resupply. I would have hated to be taken out by a rookie mistake like that.
