birthday eve

the only real reason to carry a checkbook any more is to be able to pull it out on your birthday and make the purchase avec check. the store clerk will then ask for your license. upon scanning the i.d., the person, if even marginally conscious, will recognize the importance of the day and wish you well. hmm, i wonder what i should buy tomorrow.

it may not be mathematically correct to assume 1/365th of the 6,892,000,000 people inhabiting the earth have the same bday, cold winters being what they are. still, jan 3 is a pretty good day for a bunch of us.

something pretty feelgood about riding 2 days in a row (my current big streak) then coming home to pick at left over new year's eve tapas while listening to my sister's leavebehind miles davis cd. it required a degree of talent combined w great persistence, yet i was somehow able to stack up idiazabal, manchego, 2 or 7 marcona almonds, raw honey, peppered goat cheese and glue it all together w, of course, fig paste. certainly a mouthful. still, i managed. passed on the cava, though. that will be tomorrow w oj.
