friday random elevenish: “not going to be a disney princess” edition
Little to report that I haven’t already mentioned; work has been, apart from the rise of a potential Reply-All-Pocalypse™ on Thursday afternoon, relatively quiet and somewhat productive. Got some riding in, including a wet 20 miles on Wednesday as I tried to stay ahead of a storm, and unlike all my peers on social media, I haven’t contributed to the digital panopticon by playing with trendy photo manipulation toys.
Oh, and after a chance conversation with a fellow fishkeeping friend, I ended up bringing home a school of ten corydoras aeneus to add to my tank, since hers spawned all over the place a few months back and she had like 40 of them swimming around. Here are a few acclimating to their new home:
Looking like some more rain for the early part of the weekend, I’ve gotten pulled into an online D&D game with some old friends, and the family has plans on Sunday, so I might only get 50 miles or so this weekend, which, fine. I have plenty of time to get my 310.2 miles in, and I’ve moved up the rankings a little bit on the tracking web site for the challenge.
So, tunes. Heavy on alternative stuff that clicked with folks a bit younger than myself the first time around, including the heaviest tune from a band best known for lackadaisical 90s radio pop in there at #4, and punctuated nicely with some classic rock and a former Beatle singing about Marvel Comics characters. Weird, but I’ll take it:

- “Hash Pipe” – TOTO
- “Love Kills” – Joe Strummer
- “Mean Machine” – Sugar Ray
