Oh my gosh I've been rushing around unpacking and packing and visiting family and mother's day and application for readmission to UF and food and it feels like I just got home and already I leave for China in two days! Woah, baby. That's the life, I guess. I spent my entire first day back sanitizing my clothes, which turned a nice grey color over the course of the trip. I also got to set up my new bike from Team Type 1, which arrived while I was away. Check this out:
Gotta cut the steerer tube, but still. Sweet...

Then I read more. Wait a second. Where'd all these rules come from? Only a signature, no other text. No roman characters. Only on the enclosed cards. Black or blue pen. Let the ink dry. Put a sheet between the cards. Put the cards in the hardcover? Ugh. He expects me to think this much in the middle of a stage race?!?! Psh! Even this was enclosed:
A+ for preparedness.
One last picture. This sign was at a gas station right near the pump. Caption contest? What in the world is going on here, right? Any guesses? I'm at a loss.
Good luck in China!

ReplyDeleteThe right side of the sign is very clear without words: no smoking, no match-lighting, and no using cell phones while getting gas. Here is what you're supposed to do: be surprised at how high gas prices are, but fill up your tank anyway while listening to the disabled person provide wonderful music (this is actually a hint to give him a tip even though you can hardly afford gas).
