I’ve never in my life written a blog entry before, so let’s get started, shall we? Hope I don’t bore ya too much. After having my Mac Pro since 2009, I decided it was time to upgrade. I got on to the ever trusty Newegg and started piecing together what my order would be. I definitely needed a new mouse, and since I liked my Razer Copperhead (circa 2006?) so much, I decided to stick with them and check out their new products. I ended up going with the 6400 DPI Razer Imperator2012. That was one part down. Next I thought I should upgrade my RAM, so I started talking to James and others about their RAM of choice. The unanimous vote was for Crucial, which inevitably lead me to my choice in SSD drive as well. I went with Crucial for both, and so far I’m very glad I did. Anyway, lets get to the fun part.

MAY CONTAIN AWESOME.

One Pedal Bicycle

Over the weekend, I ran into some more trouble with the new bicycle. About four miles from home, the left crank arm fell apart mid-pedal. It started wobbling and, as I slowed to a stop, completely fell off the bike. I have only owned the bike for two weeks, yet this was my second major issues. If you remember, it was basically DOA when I first brought it home due to a defective tire.

This weekend was particularly interesting because of record heat. I hadn’t ridden since last week because we were in Cleveland with friends over the holiday. I was excited to get back on the bike, heatwave or not. In a stroke of pure luck, the bike fell apart under the turnpike bridge, basking me in shade. I called Jess, who was kind enough to bring my socket set to me. Within minutes, I was back on the road.
