Had lunch with Mr. Toole. Good to see him around these parts again.

Holy shit, I came back and beat Raf.

Toured the New Glarus Brewery and bought beer and tchotchkes.

Songs for Drella

Nice! I see that your trails are as littered with leaves as mine are now. Last year it was ok, they let people go out and blow off sections of the trail with a leaf blower but they've outlawed that this year. It's pretty wretched, especially if there has been any sort of rainfall. For me, two things of note. One, I did what will definitely be the last commute of the year unless I work a half day or something. It was near full dark for more than half the ride in and fracking cold. It was below freezing when I left the house at 6:10 and while most of me was wrapped up well enough there just doesn't seem to be much that I can do about my feet. The wind on the way home sucked as well. It was blowing a steady 10mph out of the west with gusts in the mid 20s. No thanks. The second thing of note is that I briefed the wife on the arrival of the Calfee. She was a little nonplussed on being brought in after the purchase but I managed that well enough to not be sleeping on the couch. I'm psyched for its arrival on Friday and I'm going to try to make an appointment for it Saturday to have my LBS give it a once over and adjust a few things. I am a little scared that it's going to be too aggressive but the price was too good to pass up and low enough that I can keep the Roubaix for a while and decide which one I want to keep.

I knew there was a reason I've been craving burgers. Went to mom's to pick up the kids and she asked me to pick up some buns and ground beef. I had to get a little extra... Burgers with thick sliced applewood smoked bacon, deli sliced provolone, and homemade fries! Sooooo full. **BRENT**

getting out a bunch of ripped music to inventory & sell off. (undercutting the shit out of everyone else) its nice to hear old friends ray brown - something for lester

I too had a bacon cheeseburger today, in the company of a monkey. Was very nice. Now contemplating round 2 as I am sitting in front of shake shack in JFK, and right next to blue smoke BBQ.
