Livin' it up in Ben Franklin's town. Riding a bike in the city; damn! watch out for those trolley tracks (slippery when wet!) Whoa, that's what a hoochie mama looks like! I don't think I'm in Delaware anymore.....

Another fine morning in the city!!!

Woke up way too early this morning, but that's alright as I could get some stuff done and get a good run in this morning. It's amazing how quiet the town is. Not much noise at all other than a few jets landing at the airport and my crazy neighbor talking to his dog outside....

Another great weekend just passed!!! A fine friend from DE had a b-day party at Gallucios in Wilmington Sat. Night and many friends rocked out to sing Karaoke and shake some bootay. Last year she had her b-day party in Philly and I had such a blast, it convinced me to try to find a job up here and alas, I'm now living in this town. Our crew and a wedding party pretty much took over the bar and by midnight or so it was such a fun rowdy crowd there. Also by having 4 mics, many people would join in if someone was struggling on the mic. It was cool. I ended up singing way too much and probably hurt at least a few eardrums. Busted out a few 80's classics, some 90's hip-hop and some P.oakenfold. I love singing Tainted Love, that song's way too fun to sing when you have some fine ladies in the audience. As usual the E.Scrhamm and Jill duet was tops for the night!!!

One bummer of the weekend though was that while driving in Wilmington Saturday afternoon I decided to take a turn way too tight (rte 202 onto Augustine cutoff at 50mph) and blew a tyre on the car when the curb jumped out and attacked me. On Sunday when I went to buy a new one I knew I was in trouble when they told me they were out of stock after selling the last set to a Porsche. I asked how much for the tyre (I thought it would be around $100 before I knew that these tyres were on Porsche) and damn, $230 a PIECE. So I'm now really finding good reason to sell the new car and do this:http://www.phillycarshare.com/ . I've met a few people who have used the carshare and they like it a lot. Plus, who wouldn't want to not worry about crackheads breaking into their car? Every morning I've made it a habit to see if my car is A) Still there, B) Not broken into and C) that there's no ticket on the window. Yes it would stink not having a car, but that hippy inside of me actually likes the thought I would be carless in a city where a car is a waste of space. Plus it would give me an even greater incentive to ride the bike and walk.

Tuesday night Worlds are tonight. Still debating if I should do them as I'm going to take off of work on Wednesday and Thursday to ride and work on the house. The Worlds are fun stuff, but even 45 minutes in the ride is enough to cook me as I have about as I have no high end at all these days. The weather is just looking better and better as the Summer winds down and Fall officially begins (sept 22).

Yey, my alarm just kicked on! Time to wake up boys and girls, another beautiful day is about to start.
