HR Lady: Terry, stop hiding people's keys.
Terry: That wasn't me. Also I don't think it counts as hiding if they're in plain sight
HR Lady: You paper clipped xxxxx's keys to the ceiling above her head
Terry: And?
HR Lady: She can't get to them.
Terry: Still, I don't think that constitutes hiding; maybe making them inaccessible.
HR Lady: Okay, fine, stop making people's keys inaccessible.
Terry: It wasn't me.
Pssst, I lied, it was me. ]]> January playlist tag:evilsushi.com,2010://1.196 2010-01-20T09:47:08Z 2010-01-21T10:08:56Z Matt & Kim - Lessons Learned (3:36) Spoon - Anything You Want (2:16) Super Extra Bonus Party - Comets (Featuring Heathers) (3:14) Taxi Taxi! - Old Big Trees (2:39) Isbells - As Long As It Takes (3:34) BOAT -... bootykika

I've carried the same wallet with me for the last six years. This Coach leather wallet has been in my back pocket nearly everyday since it was given to my as a gift. It's been through vacations, bike rides, long road-trips, and God knows how many accidental rinse cycles. Recently I was browsing a shopping outlet and found the exact same wallet. It was then, when I was holding the new wallet side-by-side against the old wallet, that I realized how beat up the old one was.

I purchased it and when I got home, I moved the contents of the old one into the new one. But it felt odd; a bit too unfamiliar; like new shoes that hurt your feet. After a day, I picked the old one out of the trash, and put the new one in a drawer. Maybe one day it'll get used, but not today.]]> October Mix tag:evilsushi.com,2009://1.192 2009-10-10T07:51:47Z 2009-10-10T08:08:18Z Weezer - (If You Are Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To (3:28) HoneyHoney - 1979 (Smashing Pumpkins Cover) (3:32) Art Brut - DC Comics And Chocolate Milkshake (3:27) The Avett Brothers - Kick Drum Heart... bootykika

To whom it may concern,
In Henderson, Nevada, I ate a sushi boat that was clearly meant to be consumed by two people. The Japanese waitress tried to impress upon me that this meal was not for one person and that my request was not reasonable. My argument was "Look, I'm going to order this amount of food whether or not you like it. I'd just like the boat plate that normally accompanies it." Her argument was "But, the menu says it's for two." After a bit more of back and forth, she finally let me order it. And after the food came to our table, I regretted arguing with her. But 20 minutes later, I finished the entire pile of food and I rubbed my victory in her face.]]> September Mix tag:evilsushi.com,2009://1.190 2009-09-04T05:47:14Z 2009-09-04T07:44:41Z 1.

I was reviewing my year to date expenses when I noticed something: "I've spent four times as much on cycling equipment than I have on groceries." This got me thinking about how much time, effort and resources I've expended in pursuit of cycling. I've come up with a few metrics:
  • I own more cycling outfits than I do work pants.
  • I've never dieted for heath or religious reasons but am willing to diet in order to "go faster".
  • I've spent 10 minutes comparing prices on shampoo to save a dollar but haven't blinked twice about spending $21 on a 4oz tube of chamois cream.
  • I view changing my car's motor oil a chore while cleaning my bike's drivetrain a treat.
  • I haven't owned a Bic razor in years, and I only recently bought one to shave my legs.
  • My Outlook contact list has 4 categories: Family, Friends, Clients, Bike.
  • I've blown off holidays, birthdays, and other major social gatherings not just to ride but the night before a big ride because I want to "prepare myself".
  • I've worn mismatching socks out in public thinking "who's going to care", but have been hesitant to install mismatched stem/seatpost combinations because "everyone's going to think this looks stupid".
Side note: That $11 for books wasn't spent on a cycling book or even a book that was literature worthy. It was however, it was spent on this amazing and hilarious book.]]> August Mix tag:evilsushi.com,2009://1.188 2009-08-07T06:43:21Z 2009-08-07T07:42:20Z 1. Yelle - Qui est cette fille (4:25) 2.

I've got my 18.5lb full carbon road racing bike loaded with a 3lb rack and 17lbs worth of gear. I tried riding it the other day with 8 beers loaded in the back and I seriously felt as if I was balancing an orange on a chopstick; rounding corners feels scary and getting up out of the saddle to sprint is an absolute no-no.
