Welcome to #Checkin for Monday, November 25th, 2024!
Why howdy there #Checkin people, it’s me, Rod yet again.
November 25 is the 329th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar; 36 days remain until the end of the year. Holy shit. That went by fast.
Today is Blasé Day.
Of French origin meaning to be indifferent or bored with life, unimpressed, as or as if from an excess of worldly pleasures.
"Blasé," is the past participle of blaser, a word that dates to the seventeenth century which means "to satiate." That word may come from the Dutch word blazen, which means "to blow," which may have the meaning, "puffed up under the effects of drinking." Huh?
It’s Shopping Reminder Day too. Ugh. National Parfait Day is something I can get behind. Even Gaspacho Day and National Eat With A Friend Day. It’s also the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Gee, what a great idea! Just get rid of a lot of stupid men.
I’ve been looking for a basket to put on Beater Bike so I could make make it the designated grocery getter. My regular bike needs a complete refresh and my pannier bags have seen far better days. Checking the local online sales sites, I stumbled across what looks to be a vintage Wald 535 Twin Rear Carrier. From the image it seems like I could probably fit a couple of shopping bags in each of those baskets. I just wonder how the bike will ride with that much weight in the rear. Hmm...
I meet with the owner on Tuesday. I was pretty excited about it at first, but now I'm feeling rather blasé about it.
As usual, the topic is open.
