In which I show my hipster inclinations

Not really much new here, except to say that I've rode my bike to work three days in a row now! And I'm surprised by how much I like it. It's not even that the commute is way easier than taking the bus or driving, I just like biking itself. The actual physical activity of it. I like how freeing it feels zooming down streets with the wind in your hair, around the traffic. I like how relieving the exercise is after being pent up in an office all day. I am surprised because I didn't think I'd like it this much. I'm reminded how as a child you would go out and bike just because it was fun. Of course, the getting places quickly without having to rely on bus or cab or finding a parking spot is nice, too.

This weekend I also inherited some home-grown tomatoes from my parents, so I've been chopping them up for dinner with some fresh mozzarella and olive oil and balsamic vinegar on top and it's been amazing. I've decided I'm an inhibited foodie. I need to overcome my lazy and learn how to cook proper.

Finally, haven't mentioned yet that next week I'm on vacation! Going down the shore and hanging out in the sun and oh, god, I'm really looking forward to it. Only have to get through two more days of work. And figure out what books out of the many, many that I have to take >>.
