In non-violent news, I've found a nice grocery store that I can quickly and easily bike (or walk!) to. It's called The Market, but it's basically a more up-scale version of Farm Fresh, which is what we've been using forever. So I know what they have, what they don't have, how the store is generally laid out, all that. And despite all the fancy wines and mirrored waterfall logo, the prices are the same.

Plus, this one has a Starbucks, free wi-fi, free parking garage (if we do drive), and the nice bag boys will help you get your groceries up to your car. Which was a bit weird. I know the mustache makes me look older, but not that old!
Ever wondered why I'm such a chipper chocolate chip cookie in the morning?
For serious though, once you've become an official bike commuter these people show up with music and a disco ball and high-five you as you walk into work. Dogs not included.
Last night the Gal and I watched the 1997 Austrian version of Funny Games, in preparation for (or perhaps in place of) the American version that is supposedly out in theatres but isn't playing anywhere. It was good, and the ending was what I wanted. Not as "Holy Gawd That's So Messed Up!" as I thought it'd be, but I still enjoyed it a lot. I can't wait to see Michael Pitt do it. The Remote Scene is a bit iffy, but nobody is perfect. Except Brick.
Okay, I need to be working. Can you believe it's Thursday already? Jeebus.
