Sunday

Early..sunday started too early.

Some bastard drag racing in the street woke me up at 4AM, that screwed me up for the day and set the tone for a healthy 7AM morning. I mowed the jungle yesterday. We got new blades for the edger, cuts sharper, deeper, and nicer now. I had to clean out my shoes afterwords, they easily had a handful of dirt, courtesy of the new blades on my edger. I can't stand dirt being in my shoes!! Its easily worse than having waterlogged shoes......Converse high tops are great shoes but they do have their failings.

My mom pissed me off yesterday. She took her bike and "rode down 19th" all the way to lake overholser and back. Through traffic. Through a city not used to bikers. To a lake known for drunken revellers at all hours of the day. On the night before when I wanted to ride my bike downtown to the Museum my parents forbade it. I don't get it; I've already mapped out a route to Nana's through the back rodes, shes got problems getting to my place and I only figure its a 40 minute bike ride.

My dad gave me a driving lesson last night at the shop. This isn't some bad, horribly satirized and dramatized cartoon driving; my dad is a very well trained driver, when he was a race car driver he was well respected off the track, for the amount of respect he paid to people while on it. Parts of it were just constant stop go stop go, nothing too fast. Hes really comfortable to drive with.
