Baby Powder Nut Jobs

I've got nothing. The extent of my "doing stuff" the past two days has been a trip to the gym, and time on the trainer today. Work has consisted of mostly online News posts. No real content for XXC #11 in the works yet. Probably going to delay the next issue until mid May. I saw thing on TV this evening as I was flipping the channels about some chick that eats baby powder. Yeah, and I’M THE ONE that needs medication.

Seriously, she has to just be making that shit up. If I was the host I would have brought here a big bowl of it and said “Eat up nut job!” Late this evening, I couldn’t shake the baby powder nut. In fact I found myself going to the basement to change tires on the Jake to my Ritchey 40s, with a giant ass tub of baby powder in my hands.Strange.

So I spent some time getting the Jake back in shape for some spring gravel and the Barry Roubaix (which is coming up in just ONE month!). Not that one trip out in the “snirt” won’t undo all the work I did, it still felt good to get intimate with it, and of course talc my tubes before slipping them in the rubbered hoops.

Once I was done, that big tub of powder just sat there staring at me. It looked so inviting. I picked it up, took off the top and was just about dig in like the Doctor So and So Nut Job Baby Powder Eater when I snapped out it and ran up the stair screaming. Spring needs to come fast, before I just have a complete freaking meltdown.

Later.

OK, I'm back... I needed to add this shit:

Rapha Jeans....
OH YEAH! I GOTTA GET ME SOME $225 BIKE JEANS!!!

I want to go on, and on, and on, about these. But I won't. Except to say my $16.00 Wrangler jeans with the leg rolled up will just never feel the same again. I MUST have some straight cut, stretchy skinny ass jean with pink detailing that "isn't overdone." $225??? I don't think my bibs, jersey, socks, and cap combined = $225. If you have $225 to spend on "riding jeans" you have so much money that you are probably not riding your bike anywhere. And if you are wearing jeans to commute in or to work in on the bike (AKA bike messenger), you are NOT spending your extra coin on jeans like this (it would be PBR), and would most likely smash your U-Lock ("rear pockets are also riveted for strength and sized to accommodate a standard U-lock if you're commuting.") in the face of the douche that showed up for work in these pants. Or knock him out and take his wallet that is surely stuffed with hundreds. Plus, I can get a SWEET pair of Hincapie Jeans for only $145!! What a rip! Ooop! Looks like I went on and on. My bad, the meltdown is starting.... NOW!

Later.
