Here are a few photos from my first “Boba Tuesday (night)”. I took Nyquil when I got home from work and passed out until about 8:30. I sleepily drove over to the Pacific Asian Plaza (not to be confused with the “Asian Pacific Plaza” up the street) to meet everybody at Boba Tuesday. I didn’t ride because I wanted to take pictures and also I was a little bit ashamed of my brakes.
Picture!
Today is Monday February 25th, 2008. I feel like I am at the threshold of something completely new. I have spent a long chunk of the current past complaining about Las Vegas and how hard it is to find decent people that are into the same things as me. I thought I’d die if I didn’t find somebody who knew who Pedro the Lion or M83 was, but then came lvfixed.com. It’s insane how some metal and wheels can bring together some really cool folks. I’m excited about the new people I’ve been meeting. This Friday is a pretty big deal – “Critical Mass”. A huge group of riders will be converging down on the strip outside of the Fashion Show mall at 7pm. (come if you weren’t already!). I’m pretty “pumped on being stoked” about this one.
I’m also excited about the prosperity of new friends that would be into catching the next show, skipping the bar, taking a road trip “just because” and grabbing a bite to eat with. I feel so lame that I’ve gone this long without a steadfast friend in the same area code as me. I’ve (barely) survived on the thought that about 300 miles away is a best friend, and about 250 miles away is a cluster of really good friends. I thought that would cut it, but I need something more substantial. I’m out in the big little city all on my own – and now I see (good) friends aren’t one little bit overrated.
…more later.
