It's April 8th and I woke up to snow today. Whoever is pissed off about global warming can move to Bend, because at this point I would welcome ANY type of warming. In fact, I am going to drink as much bottled water today as I can (and then throw the bottles away, into the landfill for 30 years!) AND leave my car running as much as possible. I'm not going to leave a weenie 'carbon footprint', I am going to leave a 'carbon snow-angel' by the time I'm done. Ha!
On a side note: we went for our first bike ride yesterday, it was pretty fun and the trail was good. I kicked Michael's ass up the hills, he had to stop and push at a couple of spots. Haha, sorry Michael, but it was funny. What wasn't funny is that we noticed a bunch of problems with his bike. The pedal started falling off, it's not shifting gears correctly, the seat wasn't on right and the brakes needed to be tightened. So, we took it back to the store last night so they can fix it. We bought it at Joe's and apparently they don't return bikes unless they're defective?! A lame return policy if you ask me. Then the kid helping us rolled his eyes and looked totally put out when I asked him for a receipt or something to prove I had left the bike. Call me crazy, but I wasn't going to leave a $300+ bike there with nothing but my name and phone number that he had written on scrap paper. What a turd. Anyways, hopefully everything will get fixed and not be a problem anymore. I called and spoke to the gm this morning and he said if we have problems again after the bike tech fixes it all that he would take it back and get us a new one. It's not like we could go for a ride today, anyways. Stupid snow.
