Vroom.
Because of the nice weather, I was able to go on the perfect motorcycle ride. I went north on Sheridan to where it gets windy and autumn. The dry golden leaves made nice spirals in the wake of my KLR. It is real comfortable up there, in those rich northern suburbs. But the lack of culture and diversity scared me, as I ate my Bavarian ham outside of the Corner Bakery (Which, despite it's name, is a ridiculous chain store, with delicious ham). When the scales tip too far in the direction of monotony, people lose there minds and forget how to have conversations. Come on Highland Park, just give me a thousand dollars.
After my show closed I treated myself to a 10 day free trial of World of Warcraft. The creators of this game have really made something spectacular. However after three weeks (yes, of course I joined after the trial) , I canceled my account. It's too good. And it's hard to not play it for hours and hours. And after a while my back feels like it did when I had an office job, bad. And I stop getting things done that need to get done. And what little social life I have starts to fade. So I put an end to it. That's the way things tend to go with me and video games. I get into a video game for three weeks, about once every two years. And that's it. Thank God, because there is too much fresh air to breathe in this world. I am greatful for the temporary escape. However I am going to take up archery in real life. No jokin. I was always good at it in gym. And I found a place to do it.
So lets add that to my list of new things I'm learning:
Swing Dance
Aikido
Archery
Mime Spotting:
Peeking out the top of a school bus we see the elusive street mime.
