Man, The Current's weekday morning show fucking SUCKS. I love it. The DJs have irritating personalities, they talk about the most banal shit imaginable, and their taste in music is execrable. It's one of the only radio shows so unrelentingly bad that it can force me out of bed. Take Friday morning, for instance: I was seriously considering just letting it play and getting up whenever the buzz-alarm got around to ringing, but then they played two Nashville Sound country songs about god-damned semi-trucks in a row, and before I knew it, I was (at 7:40 AM, on a non-workday) out of bed and stumbling toward the kill button, ranting deliriously. ("WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU TWO?! WHY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CAN'T YOU LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE? AAARRRRRRRRRRGH!") And then I put on some good music and had a productive and fulfilling morning. Thanks, morning show!

But seriously, it's really bad.

Yesterday was mostly nothing to write home about, but MAN, there was this like 25 minute stretch last night where everything that could have gone wrong WENT.

  • Got caught in the single gnarliest patch of a thunderstorm for the ride between Lake and Franklin, which is the ten-minute leg of my commute home that I spend on my bike.
  • Caught my headphone cord on my shifter while getting my bike through the door, which meant that I:
  • ...Slammed the front door on my rear drailer.
  • Then I went ahead and smashed some glass all over the basement stairwell.

And then I had a beer and some cinnamon toast.
