I made $4 in tips last night.
I know, I know...I should be careful carrying around that much cash. I tucked it into a safe place.
And it's the first deposit into my "I live in Austin, and gas is expensive. Why the deuce am I driving when I could be riding a sweet two-wheeler?" fund.
Yes, I have a bike now. It's a beach cruiser. Great for, you know, cruising beaches.
Not so great for heavy traffic and hills.
This is the one I want:
(via)
Electra Townie Euro 8D.
Solid bike, great reviews, 8 speeds, vintage stylings. Excellent.
Except apparently nobody in Austin carries the Townie Euros except REI, and they only carry the men's versions.
Lamesauce.
Double P.S. The more I eat my soup concoction, the more I like it. Though I burned my tongue on the first bite, and my deadened tasters might be contributing to that fondness.
cute apartment! you still have the shower curtain...or is that not the one from ann arbor? (do shower curtains even last that long?) nice bike...get it delivered to the store for pick up!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's the shower curtain you picked out for me over the phone three years ago. :-D
ReplyDeleteAnd that's the problem...they just don't carry it. I've checked the website, and it's not one of the bikes they offer. I think I've found a suitable alternative, but it's all hypothetical until I have a consistent source of income. We haven't gotten official confirmation on my temp-to-hire job yet.
