Yesterday morning I woke up at seven so I could go out onto Flatwoods Loop, a paved trail for bicyclists, skaters, and pedestrians. There are some geocaches hidden in the area, so I clipped my GPS onto the handlebars. And I often see interesting wildlife, so I brought my camera gear.
I think it was worth it. I rode and walked about 15 miles, and I got hungry about halfway through. I guess next time I need to make room for some Tofurky Jurky or something like that.
No photos yet -- I shot 16 and there are 8 left on the roll. Some closeups of wildflowers, some pictures of birds whose silhouettes I'd never seen before, some broad shots across a saw palmetto prairie. Oh, and I found a few geocaches, though there are still many more for me to find on future trips.
It's Easter. We're mostly going to ignore it, though we may torture some Peeps by immersing them in chocolate fondue. (I'd recreate the Geonosis battle with Peeps, only I don't know any web hosts that could survive the slashdotting a stupid idea like that would bring.)

Coca-Cola Blak
Apr. 16th, 2006 11:00 amWell, I tried Coke Blak this morning. I had fond memories of Cafe Cola, and Coke Blak reminded me of that flavor. Unfortunately, at $1.59 for 8 ounces, I don't think I'll be buying very much of it. Which is probably just as well. Although it only has 45 calories per bottle, those calories come from 12 grams of sugar in the form of high-fructose corn syrup. No thanks!
I was pleased to discover that Kash 'n Karry is open today. Publix was closed without even the courtesy of a note explaining themselves. Anti-secularist @$(*s... But Kash 'n Karry had some good fondue cheeses (Swiss Emmentaler and smoked gouda), crusty baguettes, red potatoes, etc. I may go out later and pick up some fresh apples and strawberries.
And now, time to shower and get ready for the day. I've got a library run to do, for Jodi's papers (it's crunch time; this is the beginning of Dead Week, if you're a Gator or know that tradition -- except that USF doesn't actually have a Dead Week, so there's still loads of stuff due). And then there will be fondue to do.
And, heck, I've got the makings of sushi. Maybe I'll make it to take to work for lunch.
