Unicycle Post #4

Mostly rolling for a half revolution, some full revolutions. Lots of arm flailing. And falling. I'm good at falling. Practice time: 2 hours.

Unicycle Post #3

My unicycle was ready, so off to the store. The seat was too high, the house had no allen wrenches, and once they hacked the pole down it still wasn't easy. I can idle a second or two; rolling backwards promptly tosses me. Practice time: 1 hour.

Unicycle Post #2

I was eagerly awaiting 1pm to pick up my unicycle. Then came the noon call: a delay, wait until tomorrow. Sigh. Practice time: 0 hours.

Unicycle Post #1

Found a nice unicycle on unicycle.com, of course, and ordered the Semcycle XLW 24. I should be able to pick it up this afternoon, they said. Then they called back: wait until tomorrow. Practice time: 0 hours.

The Nine^H^H^H^HTwelve Caesars

It seemed like such a good book, all the way up to the last sentence of Domitian #7. How can I overlook such an egregious error? My friends, I have wasted a day. Time to start on Dante.

Homeless

As of 17:00 today I am officially homeless, but in a good way: no mortgage or utility bills for two months. Paying realtors $15k is rather less happy. I think I'll have some M&M's to cheer me up.

Maxtor 200GB IDE Hard Drive $60 Shipped (No Rebates)

For the low price of $49, I will delete all the data on your existing hard drive and save you the hassle of buying a Maxtor. There's a reason they cost half of everyone else. Friends don't let friends buy Maxtor. Update: gross, Seagate is buying them.

The gloom below

"He sank his blade in fury in Turnus' chest ... and with a groan for that indignity his spirit fled into the gloom below." Beautiful. That dude Turnus had it coming for at least 150 pages.

Husband Material

I went to the store for Miracle Whip and two loaves of garlic bread. Turns out I was sent for Cool Whip and two whole garlic cloves. Good thing I called to check.
