new work area, aliens and riding
here's a pic of work in progress of the new work space at the casa. greg did alot of work on this sat. and sunday - my job was cleaning/organizing. both which i suck at. i like it. still needs to be finished out some - but we're keeping it rough. will have some japanese-like sliding doors of some sort for the bottom big shelf. and will get some tall chairs. but - likely will be doing alot of work standing up. i used to have a stand-up desk at a couple jobs in my past, and i totally dug it.
here's a good movie that i hope makes it here for a screening. STILL WE RIDE. from the website: The movie takes on issues of civil liberties, surveillance, the power of mainstream media, and the benefits of alternative means of transportation.
speaking of. i may cry if i don't get to go to this.
* BICYCLE FILM FESTIVAL in my favorite place: San Francisco. Oct. 6-8. they will be showing 'still we ride' in addition to tons more and all bike all the time. so you ask, why won't you go?
well. it's the same weekend as the terrifying and surreal Juarez Chupacabras 100kms race. insert long napolean dynomite sigh here. dang. i was going to make a repeat showing at the Chupa and this time grab that evil goat and swing him off the King Kong mountain. we shall see.
got 2 excellent rides in. one was a bombing urban ss ride to the metropolitan on little texas off congress to see war of the worlds. that ride rocked. we did it in record time. was so fun. ok. put aside your disdain for all that is tom cruise for a moment. the dood can act. this movie was great and scary and spooky and suspenseful and real looking. the aliens were sweet as in awful and scary as hell. i LOVE the noise they made. i've not heard a good noise associated with something like that since King Kong or Jaws. made me shiver.
monday i missed the boat to ride w/ my friend raby. was supposed to be at zilker at 8am for lift off. well, didn't make that cutoff. so headed out and rode there later. i love all the trails out there - but, when i'm alone, i am a mainline kinda girl. no thinking about where to turn or anything - it's just all reaction. rode up Hill of LIfe and back out. saw the sara & john duo out there, so chatted a bit. had a lemonade once i got back out to the pool. then rode home. HOT. can i saw it's freakin hot here? scorched earth. but i can't complain. as i whined and moaned all winter about the 'cold and wet" we were having to deal with for so long. i welcomed any kind of drought or heat. so....sorry bout that ya'll. ha.
