Friday's adventure
After a not as great lecture in fluid mechanics, Alex and I needed to run some errands.
Alex needed a large manila envelope to send something to NJ and I needed to buy a copy of Siddhartha because I was smart enough to leave Victor's copy in the library yesterday.
Hunger struck. Alex and I fought back by hitting up "Coffee Source". Quite possibly the best place to go for a giant sandwich for under $5.00 (and healthy to boot!).
Moe's Books was sure to have Siddhartha (and they did). I also bought a postcard with MLK on it. Funny, none of my possessions have MLK on them, but now i've got him on my wall and i'll be living on MLK next year.
Went to Rasputin's for kicks. Alex got NoDoubt's "Rock Steady" and something by Collective Soul.
Then i did my share of spending at Rex Lock Service on University. Why, you ask?
victor + la mision
Had some extra time yesterday, so I met victor in the city to go biking. We checked out a couple bike shops looking for new tires for my bike because the ones i currently have are 20+ years old.
I've been borrowing Victor's u-lock while waiting to find my own. I don't want to spend $45.00 for a new lock, so I decided i'd check out flea markets and wait around til a lock found me.
After checking out a bike shop, we were walking back to our bikes, when victor found a u-lock (exactly the one i've been wanting) on the street. We picked it up and I went to the locksmith to have a key made for it. Getting a key for it cost me $22, but that's sure cheaper than buying a new one. shoots.
windy
The city was particularly windy yesterday and it wasn't so bad riding in the wind since it was blowing across us, rather than into us. Scary things happen, though, when there're big gusts.
One particularly strong one hit us while we were on Mission and both of us were carried about two feet off course. That doesn't sound so bad, but swerving two feet is dangerous when cars are right next to you.
Nature scares me all the time. Ever think about how powerful the ocean is?
