There's a limit ...

... to what you can say some days.

Also, we're in our overdraft, and there are five more days till payday.

And, I didn't wipe out today (but I only rode one way - had to bring the car in for some work - then B drove it home - I biked home); I biked home in the light and was able to see and avoid.

Rocks, brooms, and sliders! We won a curling game! The first win of the year!

It's gonna be cold tonight, but the wind's shifting to the South.

I forgot to bring David Portnoy's Complaint tonight. That's probably for the best as he's still happily married, bringing his five year old boy to hockey practice at the rink and all. Wouldn't want to mess with that.

Speaking of which, I wonder what I would have turned out like if I'd have had boys, brought them to hockey practice, and had to deal with their "boy" stuff (eating all that food and wrecking the car). I don't think my overdraft could manage that. This makes me feel simultaneously lucky and inadequate.

And that use of "simultaneously" may be one of the few times when using an adverb made my writing more concise. I still agree with my good friend Steve, who maintains that adverbs and adjectives are the tools of the devil. Amen?!
