Flirting with the dark side
I came oh so close to joining the Dark Lord’s minions yesterday when I saw a Langster posted at a remarkably low price on Craigslist. Me? Single-speed? Faux-trendy? I almost justified it all by claiming it to be a lightweight commuting tool.
Alas, I was outbid, and I wasn’t going to blow all of my iPod Touch money (get this – I need one for school! HA!) for bike #5. I also think I want a Garmin nuvi. But if the price had held, I’d be fighting on the side of evil today. If you bought a bike from a Boston College kid yesterday, I thank you. Yikes!
I’ll also refrain from lusting for ankle tattoos, skinny pants, and post-adolescent angst for a little while. Gosh.
