the simanek six: six stupid things today
1. i dragged my ass out of bed this morning at 5am to go for 60ish mile bike ride and, upon walking into my garage, walked strait into my bike up on the workstand (chest/eye level). as bricktop would say, "it's not exactly incon-fucking-spicuous now is it?"
2. on the drive downtown to the start of the bike ride, i was in an old school hip-hop mood. and i was tired. just short of my destination, i found myself with head on hand leaned over on the arm rest(ala gangsta lean) with MC Lyte bumpin' away. skinny white kid + gansta lean + loud hip hop + real gangsta's = strange looks and hysterical laughter.
3. one of the guys on the ride this morning got FOUR flat tires. that sucked.
4. apparently, i'm not the only one with retarded customers. down at maxwell street market after the bike ride, we stopped for tacos. the customer in front of us asked the man behind the counter what a tamale was. fair enough, not everyone knows about mexican food. the guy behind the counter explains that it's meat covered in dough and cooked in a corn husk. quoth the lady, "what's dough?" "you know, like flour...you don't know what dough is?" "no". clearly, darwin's theory of natural selection missed this one.
5. driving back from work tonight, i witnessed a guy trying to kiss his girlfriend while smoking a cigarette. wow...
6. this one is not so much stupid as it is strange...i just ate my 3rd chocolate covered strawberry ever. i'm still not a fan.
