A Food-Filled Weekend

despite totally pigging out the night before,
i stuffed my face with american delight!
(didn't eat the entire day though, haha)

takaya lost a game of baka, haha
バツゲーム：おばちゃん達と花札参加！笑
penalty game: play a game of hanafuda with the ladies! haha

and i randomly saw this on the side of the road
while walking to church on friday..
i guess it wasn't just me who had a
food-filled thanksgiving!

Crash!

coming down metcalf, jumped on the sidewalk
wanted to jump on the road so I flipped to see if it was clear
car came, paniced, went back to riding on the sidewalk
big blue mailbox appeared out of nowhere!
prepared for the crash,
tire hit the mailbox, face hit the mailbox
and my frame is fucked!

first blood!

i was practicing track stands
and my foot was caught in the cage and i tipped!
i thought it was bleeding a lot more than it should have been,
and when i cleaned it out,
there was a piece of glass that rolled out of it.
(you didn't need to see any of this. haha)

fixed!

max got a fixed gear bike!
it was kind of expensive
and it's kind of old
but he's going to upgrade it and make it hella nice
