TANGENT: that winter, i rode my roommate's http://www.advancetraders.com.au/images/products/salesprod9.jpg to the library, and the key broke off in the lock because it was so cold. we then had to drive over with his angle grinder (handy) and cut the lock (krypto u-lock).

MONTANA IS COLD, PEOPLE

I wasn't even DRUNK. Running late, had to get a train that doesn't stop by my house, so I rode there and locked outside the subway. Promptly forgot to notice WHAT STOP I WAS AT. Came home like 7 hrs later extremely tired and with foot injury and had to walk between 2-3 subway stops and check every exit for goddamn bike. Finally found but by that time I had to pee, was out of cigarettes, and feeling EXTREMELY CRANKY.
