Finally biking again. Finally got my cetma rack installed. Got a rear quick release skewer, but that ended up being too big, then got the bright idea to just swap out front skewers with the xtracycle, which worked like a charm. So I'm rocking a front porteur style rack, took off the rear Wald folding metal baskets, but kept the Tubus Cargo, and bungie my Tom Bihn Ristretto to the front and strap my Arkel TailRider to the back and off I go to work. Works well. When I bring Lucy in the mornings I double fist it, BOB Revolution on the left, and the Sprint on the right, held and steered by the stem. Then I get to jet down the Lake Front Path. So much harder than cruising through the city, since it's non-stop. Like night and day. Makes me crave a real road bike. Oh well. Good exercise. Which is good. Since we're headed to Mexico in a couple of weeks. And the cheesecake my mom gave us for Easter, which I ended up eating, didn't help at all. Reread Ready Player One, still a fun read. Started up the Percy Jackson books again, partly because I watched the movie and also wanted some more fluff to read. Lost my sunglasses, which is annoying. Brought Lucy to Green City Market last Saturday, but parking was really bad, so got frustrated driving around, then she wanted to chase the ducks and geese, but I just wanted to get to the market to get some fiadone's from Zullo's, and ended up they weren't even there, and at some point I put my hood up over the sunglasses on my head, and at the end of the day, realized I no longer had them. That was a good 3 or so years for those, which is actually pretty good for me. So now have to get another pair. Probably another pair of Smiths. ANd probably shouldn't just buy them from Amazon, or at least, wait until I try them on somewhere.

Finished up the Mistborn Trilogy. Good stuff. Went back and finished The Hunger Games Trilogy, once again plowing through Mockingjay in a day. Not sure what to read or reread next, but going to try listening to The Sports Guy podcast finally. Figure it's about time. Didn't realize Paganello was this past weekend. Guess Scandal won again. Looking at the team list, seams like it's getting smaller again. Wonder what the fun factor is there. Akira would know since he's been going for 12 years now? Wow. Lost my old iPad, which had become Lucy's iPad. Toca Boca games are great. Lucy seems to be able to figure stuff out, and do most of the mini games. The mazes not so much. But works well for keeping her engaged and quiet, say, when my parents and and us were at Socca for Easter brunch, and we didn't have crayons for her. Also my parents got to see what she's like at church too. It was so packed on Sunday that there wasn't any room in the back to hang out with the kid when she got too fussy, so instead, all the parents with active children were hanging out on the church steps in the sun. That was pretty nice. Finally got my taxes and stuff together. Hopefully enough time for the accountant to figure out how much we owe. Back to iPads, my Dad didn't really use his, so my Mom gets that one (an iPad 2), and my mom's old iPad (original 16 GB 3G) is now Lucy's. It's really that useful. And educational. Although right now she loves the letter O. Again, need to get back to biking, and need to start sleeping. Not sure why I've been so reluctant to just go to sleep at night.
