mc day 4 aka guess who got a bike snitches!


morning
woke up several times startin from 5:45 am with the lax tea cramps (again). the tea entitled "smooth move" ain't so smooth after all. for some reason, didn't have an urge to do the do until i took the salt water. which, i must say, is getting a lot easier to drink.

afternoon-ish
after babysitting went on a mission to find a bike and ended up splurgin on that pretty young thang you see up there -- her name is nancy. after thinkin it all through, esp since i was gonna paint the $200 one and maybe revise it more, i decided might as well splurge and get one that's already ready to go -- booked to santa monica to pick up the size i needed. apparently a 24" bike, which i find most comfortable, is supposed to be for kids.
i dunno if you could see from the chart above, but 24" bikes are made for about 13 year olds (highlighted in pink in the chart). seems i am the size of half my age, yes! and, two different bike store dudes kept tryin to get me to get a bigger bike, by either whispering to my friend that "uh, i dunno if she knows this, but those are kid bikes," or giving me a funny look and directing me to the more adult bikes.

anyways, after bringin it home, ended up takin a nice ride to wilson park at sunset and ahead of me i saw a reflection of me riding as a little girl:

maybe i can add tassles to mine too! i don't look THAT young on a bike, do i?

night
overall, this lemonade cleanse is becoming routine and i don't really think about it too much. added an extra tablespoon to my servings, and its given me more energy. plannin to do a midnight ride tomorrow with homies across la, so that should be fun! i'm gonna need more lemonade tho!

goodbye day four! less than a week left!
