myriad of the mundane

2.10.2006

it has been absolutely fantastic weather here. how's about yours? the sun has felt good and just dried it out here a good bit.
my bike is really broken right now but i'm getting more info about how to fix it as we speak here. soon as its going well i'm going to sell it and get something bigger and newer to work on, lol.
i've been listening to some older modest mouse lately and it's just rocking my socks off. they're louder and clearly younger in these and i love it.
i'm still working out design stuff for my backpack in my head but i think i'm about ready to put pen to paper and needle to fabric and get this thing made. latest improvements include using sleeping pad and tent poles for the frame elements to help me carry my lightened load more comfortably, a dry-bag style closure and silicone sealed seams to ensure that the entire thing is completely waterproof, a sealed outside pocket for my shelter so i don't have to open my bag(and get my stuff wet) to get my shelter out and pitched, and finally a mesh back panel that can be cinched to bring it off of the rest of the backpack to increase airflow in hot climates or just in general. i'm also going to make it pretty simple overall...even though it doesn't sound like it.
i've been pretty pissed at mr. bush this week just for being such a douche then trying to pawn it off as nothing more than a simple mistake. feels like they're trying to save him from the burning stake. seems like they didn't bother even trying to restrain themselves with clinton. double standard, anyone?
i think so.
that is all.

  • You are right on guy. So what have you got to say about the Dickster? Isn't this fun? Well...except for poor Mr. W. and all his spots! You can't make this stuff up...it just evolves.

  • i think it was a total crap week for news so they latched on to the first interesting thing that came across the front desk. i find it odd that they have proved the v.p.'s point by reporting about three different sets of amended facts since they broke the story. in this case it's total bull that it's all over the news. oh! and the guy with the glasses, gap teeth, really bad texas big hair and an overly high opinion of himself on fox news really pissed me off going after gore already. the campaining doesn't start for a few more years! give me a break from your negativity.
    that's my two cents.
