Today I ironically have yet to smoke.

I was probably the only non-stoned person on the cluster**** of a bart train I was on. Had to have my bike vertically in front of me with the saddle between my legs.
**** that.

Oooof, today I got laid off. Was locked out of the company email before I could even send a proper goodbye. They're paying me till the end of the month but not paying out for unused vacation days.

Looking on the bright side: I didn't really like the job and now I get to enjoy NYC during the weekedays with the GF.

If I were you I would sue for your rightfully earned vacation days. That's a very ****ty move (I have weeks of unused vac time)

I know everyone has been wondering what Huffandstuff's Portland commute is like, but wait no longer. Now that I have a Gopro I made a video of my commute, notable moments are 3:00 for my sick whip skid(it's not a fixie edit without), 7:00 for sweet hill bombings, 12:45 for Unicycle commuter and 14:40 for trackstandzzzzzz.
