Day after Thanksgiving...32 degrees - 30 miles on the bike!

So there wasn't anyone on the road today; I think I was the only crazy one out this a.m.! The cables on my bike keep making very strange noises, creaking snapping sound...I just had it serviced...maybe it's Old Man Winter doing a number on them...or perhaps my bike has acquired a language, finally...

Ok, I went to lock my bike to parking meter in Lakeview...and half of them are gone...I was like, wha...?

Ah yes, and I was yelled at by an angry driver - for apparently just being on a bike, in the bike lane...I kept looking around...I'm all, who is he yelling at? I looked at him, who are you yelling at? And it was ME! Hilarious. I wished him Happy Thanksgiving - hope he's nicer to his family/friends/the cooked turkey - than he was to me...and my bike!

Listening to: Sufjan Stevens Xmas Cd, Bjork Homogenic, Jeremy Messersmith Silver City, Iron & Wine The Shepherd's Dog

Went to the Las Manos Gallery in Andersonville to see my friend Doug Stapleton's show (it's in the back - you'll miss it if you don't venture through the gallery) - amazing work...!

Reading, Thinking Shakespeare by Barry Edelstein, what a book :) I feel...smarter ;)

And the best part, Thanksgiving with good friends!
