i went to high school with someone who is going to be on "the bachelor" tonight. my grandma called to tell me to watch.

i got a bike. it is a kid's bike because they didn't have any grown-up bikes small enough for me. how frustrating. it's rad though, & i put a basket on the back. i want to ride it constantly but my butt is still getting accustomed to the seat so i have to pace myself. i have an elaborate locking system because i'm very paranoid about it getting stolen.

i went to campus today to photocopy my section syllabus & check out the rooms for my sections & find the office for women's studies TAs. the walls are bare in my office, so i am going to hang up the posters that keight, laura & i made a few years ago for the women's guerilla history project. i'm so glad i didn't recycle them when i was packing to move here.

yeah, i'm actually thinking about taking it into the campus bike shop & asking them to help me fit it. although i also think it's just gonna take a few days of riding consistently to get my butt used to it. i haven't ridden a bike in about 5 years!

i got a gary fisher tyro. the good thing about getting a kid bike is that it cost a little less. i like it a lot so far. plus, this is the first time i've ever had a "real" bike (i.e. not a dept store one) & it's making me super interested in all aspects of bike maintenance, etc. thanks for your bike-shopping advice a while ago, by the way.
