Zyrtec? Check. Benadryl? Check.
Let the loopiness commence. Maybe they'll let me go home early if I get really whacked out. 4/5/2010 10:00:38 AM |

I never had allergies anywhere (NYC, NC the first time, California) but now I have 'em bad. I don't know why? Is it exceedingly bad this year? More than past years? Or did I somehow become susceptible somehow over the time I spent away from here?
Either way, it sucks... 4/5/2010 10:10:01 AM |

I have never suffered in the way that I've suffered the last 5 days or so. The pollen in this area has mutated into something straight out of a SyFy movie.4/5/2010 10:11:36 AM |

I agree with that. I normally don't have very bad allergies at all but this year they are kicking my butt. 4/5/2010 10:12:10 AM |

It pisses me off that so many outdoor things don't open for another month or so when it's really nice out right now and opening in May doesn't leave much time before it's 100 degrees every day. 4/5/2010 11:32:42 AM |

I was at Lake Crabtree yesterday and got excited when I saw the canoes out on a rack. But they don't start renting them for another month. That is lame. 4/5/2010 11:37:05 AM |

^Lake Jordan is renting out their shit. We got a paddle boat yesterday for 8 bucks for an hour. They also have Jon boats, kayaks, and canoes probably.
Turns out bmel and I are too competitive to use one nicely 4/5/2010 11:45:39 AM |

Psh, I'd take him...back in the day .
Well, when you both control the same paddle rod, one person ends up going faster, and the other catches up and goes faster, and then its a vicious cycle until you're both pedaling as fast as possible until one gets too tired and quits Of course this ramp up occurs in a matter of seconds, and repeats every couple of minutes.

He does. Can you just tie it to the roof rack? I have never moved a canoe before. I figured you needed something special to carry it on. 4/5/2010 12:00:35 PM |

yeah, you can. if you know simple knotts its not hard at all.
hell, you could tie it down to the top of your car but i wouldnt recommend it, says the eagle scout

I saw a guy in a sedan move around a ~Queen size mattress on his roof without straps. He just held it with one arm while driving around. This was on Western too
His Jeep has bars on top so you'd be able to strap it down no problem 4/5/2010 12:04:16 PM |

I would try it because it would be fun to do alone sometime, but I would likely off myself trying to get it down. 4/5/2010 12:04:41 PM |
