padre pio

Dope fresh time last night 9/16 at Danger Danger Gallery in West Phil. I love to see people doing their thing. It is absolutely beautiful.

am running

3 miles in the Me-dia loop today before work. I hope to make enough time someday for 5.
I think I may be addicted to the sense I get from running that comes after losing the jarring abrasiveness that a run always starts with. When it isn't uncomfortable anymore and the effort I am making is almost minimal, I get to where I feel like I can go on forever. I am one with my body and it is serving me in its highest capacity. I don't feel that way every time I run, sometimes it hurts and I get a cramp and hate it; but when I can get there, it is perfection.
Biking could quite possibly turn this way for me as well.

the start of foxy tales

So I am going to start posting about all the ridiculousness I hear from my co-worker, who I am going to call "foxy". Right now, she has 2 men, both named Larry. She talks about them all day long, among other things, and it is actually pretty enjoyable. Today she tells me that was with Big Larry last night, and she "gave him half the cookie, snatched up the rest and told him he can't have no more". Cookie is a euphemism for what I am sure you can guess. Big Larry is in the doghouse because she thinks he's living with another woman that she doesn't know about, and she wants to call Joey Greco from Cheaters on his ass. I told her she should do it.

grrrrr

I forgot my camera today and I am kinda pissed about it. At least I have my phone...

Last night 9/13 I partied in Ridley, at Tom and Jerry's bar, because my friend Josh's band was playing there. Let me just say that it was an experience. The place is a sports bar, so the female bartenders all wore these striped referee cropped "shirts" (if you could even call them shirts) which was reminiscent of some crusty Hooter's somewhere. Being in this bar was like being transported to rural Texas, but in reality you are only a few miles outside Philly. At least the drinks were cheap, and I had the pleasure of free whiskey shots bought by some guy that looked like a cross between Wayne Newton and Glenn Danzig circa Mother '93. I really wanted to take a picture, but I didn't want to give him any ideas. All in all it was a very interesting night.

bike ride

Rode 34.6 miles yesterday 9/13 from Conshy to Lower Perkiomen Valley Park to Manayunk back to Conshy.
The universe is opening itself up for me.
