Happiness is a Bicycle Commute
A year ago, I would have been affected by this: “Power Failure Snarls Commuter Traffic”
A year ago, I would have been one of those poor bastards shuffling along for a MILE to get to some other mode of transportation, cursing the whole way. A year ago, today’s latest regular dismal failure of the northeast corridor railway system would have likely hatched a profanity-laden tirade about how shitty my day was, followed by several gin and tonics.
But today, I rolled out of my house and took pictures of the goats (yeah, that’s right, goats) trimming the field across the street from my house, and arrived at the office 5-10 minutes later after dodging prarie dogs on the bike path and watching the occasional hawk.
So instead of complaints, you now get gloating. Sorry about that.

Was that gloating or goating?
both! Actually, it appears the goats are gone, moved on to another field of weeds. Sigh…
Aren’t those goats great??!! First time I saw them all, on the East side of Foothills Pkwy., I was like… “What the F*ck? Were those GOATS along the highway?” hehe Gotta love those cute little prairie dogs too.
I enjoy reading / hearing about how happy you (and Brenda) are here in your new home, in Boulder. Yay!
Hey there,
I did some googling and read your post about Walt Mink from last spring. I’m curious to know whether you’re aware of my project and whether or not you made it to the shows that went down in June of ‘05.
Didn’t see the option to comment on that post, and I’m a bike commuter in Brooklyn/NYC, so I thought I’d hit this one. Drop me a line if you like.
Chris
