Tuesday night follies
Sep. 7th, 2010 09:20 pmI see by the ol' kingdom e-list that the unfortunately named "Booze For Boobs" will be back at Crown.
http://www.salon.com/life/breast_cancer/ says a lot of what I'm thinking better than I can. Except for the part where booze increases the risk of breast cancer.
Uh, thanks. I'm sticking with the food bank. A meal is an immediate tangible good. Besides, I could stand to start skipping lunches once a week again.
*****************************************************
New taiko course session started tonight and we started work on a new piece with what promises to be harder choreography and a swingy beat that will be fun once we get it down. The usual suspects - Bob, Tracy, Josh, Clint, Ryan and myself - all returned. Looks like a fresh crop for the 7:30 beginner class, all looking rather big eyed as we trashed our way through new parts on a rather complicated drum set-up.
Bike developed a new squeak on the ride home, probably because I brought her into the "dojo," parked her in the corner with the kick stand and she fell over as soon as I was half a dozen paces away. I righted her and leaned her against the wall instead, but there was a new noise which got faster and increased in pitch as my wheels spun faster. Might be a loose spoke light or a brake pad rubbing a tire or something. Too dark when I got home to tinker, so I'll give her a look tomorrow. And WD-40 the springs on the bike seat 'cause they creak.
And it was dark, the marine layer having rolled in and local sunset at 7:27 PM. Traffic is light in town between 7:30 and 8 PM, which is about when I rolled into the alley to lock up. Not a bad ride., t
