Saturday

I never did get to the beer festival. I prefer summer anyway, winter is so crowded and hot, ironically. I met Risa and AJ and satanicsocks and friends in the Maypole (cocktaisl!) and caught up on old times a bit and got to go "Awwww!" :) And then went to relativity afterwards, when I had to put my innuendo engine into reverse, and spot statements that could plausibly be interpreted as *not* refering to bondage or mathematics :)

Firefly

Well, it's hard to list episodes that aren't my favorite, but Mrs Reynolds and Janyetown have to be two of the funniest, conveniently right next to each other.

I cooked, um, something with vegemince, onions, mushrooms, etc, and rice, with a few bits on the side. Something between bolognese and stew? Curry without the meat or the curry? How would you describe that? Anyway, it was quite nice. It was the first time I did that exactly, and I'm glad it was ok. Though I thought it could have done with some change, I'm not sure what -- maybe tomatoes? Certainly more spices for me :) Different veg? While the others didn't have any suggestion.

Scratch

I have a short vertical scratch on my forehead. And no idea why. I'm not sure if I knocked it against something when I was concentrating on something else and didn't notice, or scratched it with a fingernail while asleep, or kicked in the head and had my nuclear wessels stolen while I had amnesia, or was kidnapped by aliens and a spore put into my brain.

Bike

On sat I put the bike back together, and it's cyclable, but there was still something wrong. AJ nailed it first thing -- the wheel wobbles; peddling hard tilts it and rubs it on the frame.

Cat

Apparently our street's little wandering friend was hit by a car, I don't think he's coming back :(

oh! my old bike did that. We never fixed it. Or maybe we did and something else went wrong.

Well, I was only half-right - I said it would be rubbing against the brakes. If I'd been fully-right, then the solution would have been easy. Sadly, I think you need a new gear assembly (which might have to come pre-integrated with a new wheel, in my experience) now that the wobble has become this bad.
