New vehicle acquired. And its not motorized.
Out of a lawn and into my garage.
Came with a broken derailer, chain, flat tires, dead tubes, and a bent hanger.
New chain, derailer, tubes, and tires, and bam! a bike it makes.

Parked at the Mechanic, the car gets attacked.
Picture evidence for Mike.
As my partner puts it “That car is cursed, get rid of it!!!”

Crazy Car accident

I saw a crazy car accident on the way to work today.
Not very often do you see a car accident in Eugene. And a roll-over at that.

I finally got my own personal sign of the economy.
Got my annual balance sheet from the Public Employee’s Retirement System.
My account earned a -26.75% return last year.
This is awful. But where it really hurts is… I put in less money than it lost, so for the year, I lost 1/16th of my retirement.
Woo…. *tear*
