Late-At-Night Post

I'm working on plans for another of my 12X2012 accomplishments.

• Take a bike trip to the Hill of No Return on my green bike.

Almost half of that has been accomplished. My bike is now fixed, all I need now is a free afternoon! Perhaps I should have said simply 'take a bike trip.' That is going to happen, Lord willing, Thursday morning/noon/afternoon. Two of my friends and I shall pack a picnic lunch, bike to the nearby farm market to purchase donuts and peaches and the like, then start pedaling down a back road or two. At the moment, the chosen destination is a cemetery a few miles away. We might stop and eat at a park between here and there, as others may not find our choice to lunch in a cemetery so...appetizing. Perhaps we won't stop there at all, maybe we'll just continue and find a brand new spot. =) I love not planning everything and getting to make choices on whims.
And I'm also curious, can anyone else see the picture in my last post, of the bike? It's disappeared.
Good night, my lovelies! ;)

12X2012: Bike

• Have my green bike fixed. Again.

First thing crossed off my list! Dad replaced the tire & inner tube last night, and I'm hoping to get a bit of riding in today before I go to work! The picture isn't of my bike, but it's one very similar. The most noticeable difference is that my bike is a girl's bike. And doesn't have reflectors. But it's the same colour/style.
I'm very close to my "Finish my first year at JoAnn Fabrics," only have three weeks and five days left until that one's crossed off as well. =)

Life Updates.

So far, I haven't been able to take my second Unicycle Riding Class. Which is too bad. Because it's not really something you can learn without practicing, is it? No.
And I haven't quite gotten my green bike fixed. I talked to the dude at the bike repair place about a tire, but he won't have any new tires in until Friday. And they're $15 apiece. Ooog. There go more dineros. But maybe it'll be worth it--maybe this one will last more than a year and a half! It's cheaper than buying a new bike, anyway.

We have a scheme in the works, which involves biking and picnicking (<--oddly-spelled word) and swimming and camping. Possibly. Biking and eating, of course! Swimming--perhaps. Camping--er, we'll see. It would involve schedules cooperating (<--another oddly-spelled word), and permissions, and plans. But that would take care of several of my 12X2012's, such as the "Take a bike trip down the Hill of No Return on my green bike" one and the "Go swimming once or twice" one also.

I'm starting to half-toy with the idea of checking out another blog site, like Wordpress or something, but I dunno. Do I really neeed to start another blog, when this one isn't posted in enough, anyway? But as it is, I get bored on here in the evenings but don't want to go to bed. So I sit here, online, with abso-youtly nothing to do. Facebook isn't cooperating today, Twitter's boring, Facebook's normally a bit boring, too. The messageboards I'm part of aren't all that busy tonight. Game sites are full of stupid teenage boys who think that by saying 'hi' in the chatbox I'll fall desperately in love with them and agree to be their 'girlfriend.' (although I still haven't figured out how THAT works, since it'd be a 10,000% online 'relationship...' Talk about stupid.) Plus I'm bored with those games.

I should go. Either go to bed, or go read, or something. I should have been working with my Mum tonight, because I got a new dress (free!! I love it. Long story... =), but it's size 12 and I'm not. Thankfully she knows how to alter and take clothes in somewhat. And I'd like to have it done in time for my friend's wedding on Saturday (hahaha, like that'll happen. O well.).

Toodle-pip, I'll see y'all later! =)

Second post in a week! You guys are getting lucky!

So, I figured I'd do another post, since I felt like it. Maybe I'll mention my latest venture, something I should have included on my 12X2012 post. Ah, yes, the Unicycle.

Odd-looking device, isn't it? And quite difficult to balance on, let me tell you! I had Emmy on one side and KK on the other, and STILL couldn't quite balance. Because of the lack of balance, I now have a big ol' scrape on the inside of my knee from the tire rubbing.

But, since my first lesson, I'm a far more experienced unicycleist than most of you are. I think that when I complete one of my 12X2012 challenges, I'll replace it with 

• Learn to ride the unicycle without people propping me up.
