Snow FINALLY Gone
…and so pedaling to work! Today will make twice in this first week back in the saddle.
Oh yeah and this year I’m gonna poast some pics of the commute; can’t believe I haven’t done that yet.
Until then, he’s a picture of Kermit the frog on a bicycle. You should be on one too.

Y’all be good.
*dons old-timey flying goggles. salutes, and jumps out nearest window.*

@epiginoskete -
If only my bicycle had car seats and a LATCH system and juice box holders.
hahahh!! it’s about time! love thinking of you out of the snow and into the desert weather. oh wait, you don’t get really hot desert weather up there.
yes, pics of you on the way to work please thank you goodbye. <3
was a sunny day
whats that frog got in the basket?
It’s snowing in SoCal today, down to 2,000 feet! Still!!!
well, good, snow’s finally gone. but, man, that sure took long enough…
@aaronmcnees - a loaf of bread and a jug of wine, you pervert.
@complicatedlight - lol at a.
@aaronmcnees - you’re always curious in the places not anticipated. <3
@complicatedlight - what the hell you doin’ to that frog, phil?
@be_the_rain - just paint my nose blue and call me curious.
@aaronmcnees - oops. i meant a loaf of bread a jug of wine *and thou*. forgot about the thou part. damn. it’s hard to keep thou quiet, though.
I bought a bike from a girl I was seeing – actually it was her sister’s. I put my bumper sticker on it and everything. But we broke up and then later I got married. She enjoyed drunk-dialing and email hacking after that and started demanding I return the bike and some of the cool presents she had given me. I haven’t had a bike since then.
@dirtbubble - that sounds like a lullaby.
@dirtbubble - MOVE ON AND GET ANOTHER ONE, DORKBUBBLE.
@mercurious_v1 - is that a condom in your mouth or are you just happy to see me? (heh. web historians are gonna have a field day with that question, years from now after your site has shut down and your profile pic no longer shows…)

Sorry dude, it’s the vow of anonymity, clashing with my formula of including a photo I like with every post. I thought it did a good job of alluding to the whole swan retinue thing, but you know. Whatever
Not like your photo of Kermit is much better… or did you know I’d come here and so decided to mimic the ‘slightly off photo accompaniment’ thing? Shucks, man, I didn’t know WE were getting intertextual…
@mute_warrior - tl;dr
ride ride ride….
@betsy30 - YOU BET! well you know me, lori…
@complicatedlight - Now I have to pretend like I totally know what you’re talking about with that cybernugget.
lol phil got a tricycle and he’s like 50 years old ya’ll
@mute_warrior - lol. you have internet access, right?
@At_Sixes_And_Sevens - TONY! dammit, you’re going to interfere with my master plan blabbing like that…
@complicatedlight - oh well, old phil has had more wimmens than i’ve had hot dinners, so i’m allowed to make fun of hims
@At_Sixes_And_Sevens - you know what you are, tony?…let’s see, what’s the best way to say this…oh yeah. you are a “disturbingly insensitive monster.”
yeah. that’s the ticket.
@complicatedlight - goddamnit! *curls up in a ball of shame, but while shaking with laughter*
It rocks! I’m so happy to be outside doing stuff.
Everyone is a burning sun.
I sure hope alcohol wasn’t as much of a problem for you as food has been for me…
There’s still snow in my yard. . . and I live in the metro
@complicatedlight - that is if they can find the scroll to my writings.
@filthyminds - i know, there’s still some about…but not enough to keep me off my bad ride. i hear we’re supposed to get some more inside a week =
@complicatedlight - you best be fucking with me.
@filthyminds - i’d best not be. you’re 15.
@complicatedlight - lol, figure of speech. I am so angry that the snow isn’t gone yet.
@filthyminds - yeah yeah i got that, punk. now back to the topic at hand, moar snow. I KNOW, RIGHT?!
How far do you ride? Must be in good shape, eh?
Kermie!
@Writing_the_Tides - not terribly far, thirty miles round trip. but i do push myself.
@ShimmerBodyCream - miss…er…nah.
@complicatedlight - *eats a donut* WATCH YOSELF.
@Writing_the_Tides - of course i also like to take my conditioning on the road at the
end of the summer. here’s a post about a wonderous tour i did in ’09.
http://complicatedlight.xanga.com/709506600/trike-tour-09-three-the-penultimate-insult/
i recently reposted some pics from that ride as well, to relieve the stress of the long winter we’ve pretty much all endured.
@complicatedlight - I’ll have to hear the story behind this trip some time. Thanks for sharing the link, amazing ride!
@Writing_the_Tides - do you ride at all?
@complicatedlight - I haven’t in a few years, but even when I did never for such long distances as you have. I gave away my bike when we moved to a place where I had no place to store it. Does a stationary bike count?
@Writing_the_Tides - No
cool! I’m ready to see this venture!
You’re so funny. Sometimes.
i LOVE my bike! love love love it! and with gas prices these days..
You really like little froggies, don’t ya?
