I guess I will be buying new tires sooner than expected.

I got in some rainy commute rides last week, and as I was doing some chain maintenance this weekend I noticed a concerning amount of tire wear.

That looks concerning.

Oh, that looks worse!

Yeah, I have no idea where these came from but I would guess the gravel access road I take for around a mile to get in and out of the Arb have not been kind. Which is why I'm wondering if I should trade in for a gravel bike at some point. In either case I guess it's time to order a new set of tires.

It's the little things

I don't have much time to spend with my not quite as new anymore x-box, but when I played some in between classes this spring the downstairs tv being a little off was driving me crazy.

With the dog in the house the basement isn't really getting much use as our ready-space for the kids, so we brought the fancy TCL upstairs and put the older LG downstairs. I reconnected everything, but the placement of the basement tv was off. It was never quite straight, but it was a little too high on the wall too. It shouldn't have bothered me as much as it did since we weren't getting much use out of it anyway, but I guess my brain was looking for a distraction b/c I could not let it go.

So I re-hung it this weekend and I feel so much better. It's actually kind of worrying me how satisfied I feel just moving the tv down a few inches and reconnecting everything. I need to get out more.
