under the electric wires
Last Friday it was a nice afternoon and my company is smart enough to give everyone a half day at the end of week, so at the end of the day I decided to see how far I could walk towards home before getting tired.
I explored the paved "Gatineau Hydro Corridor" trail, part of Toronto's network of bike routes. I didn't encounter anyone else along the way (on a winter's day.)
back to zero
Today I paid off my credit cards for the first time in many years :)
Onward and forward...

there goes my hero
A great quote from Dave Grohl about the experience of hearing the B52s on Saturday Night Live in 1980, at the age of 11.
I remember that moment like some people remember the Kennedy assassination. When the B-52s played "Rock Lobster," honestly, that moment changed my life. The importance and impact of that on me was huge. That people that were so strange could play this music that sounded so foreign to me and for it to be so moving... growing up in suburban Virginia, I had never even imagined something so bizarre was possible. It made me want to be weird. It just immediately made me want to give everyone the middle finger and be like, "Fuck you, I wanna be like that! - from This is a Call: The Life and Times of Dave Grohl
