Its been a year of Buffalo bike parties now. Alex made amazing cupcakes. (e:paul), (e:terry) and (e:yesthatcasey) didn't seem to like the ride but we really didn't mingle.

I love riding together, but sometimes I think going alone forces you to be more social because every time I go on rides by myself it seems like I talk to more people.





Front Park's phallic cannon aimed at the passing cars. Too bad it's not functional.

(e:paul) and I shaved our heads. He took a bunch more off than I did. Bald is beautiful.

On our bike ride around town, we came across Montante or whoever they sub out to started to demolish Gates Circle. it was so dusty on Linwood and it wasn't even windy. While I don't think the building is pure asbestos like (e:Paul) no one wants to breath in concrete dust.

I don't know who to report them to if it happens again but I bet their permits rely on mitigating dusts and emissions. I'll make sure to take more pictures next time.

Yesterday was the Clean Air coalition dinner at the Hotel Lafayette. The bread sticks were amazing and most of what I ate. Natasha put out a small fire with wine.

After wards we headed to the after party at left bank. Paul and I ordered some cheesy peppers and we drank a lot of beer.

We spent a whole lot more time gardening. (e:terry) and I finished the new garden bed on the hump and (e:paul) finished murdering the wisteria. I woodchipped 5 bags of thorny rosebush and wisteria. I wanted to murder a rosebush of my own by the end.

(e:terry) had made a nice cheesy soup so (e:yesthatcasey) and (e:uchina) joined us for dinner after.
