too funny not to share this txt convo w/ my friend who just moved to Stanford today- she is starting their physician assistant program (woot, girl!):

CJ: how did the big move in day go? all settled in? welcome to my part of the state :D
[redacted]: I live in the ghetto :( there is an adult superstore and this other joint called hanky panky across the street from me
CJ: ha! i can’t help but laugh. cant beat em, join em….??
CJ: ps- it’s palo alto… i am sure they are very upscale stores, for only the most discriminating pervs
[redacted]: Hello my name is candy and I work nights!!!

hee, hee, hee. just lurve my friends.

hopefully i can convince “candy” to embark on a couple long rides and trail runs with me in the upcoming months. i am simply beyond stoked to have her living in my neighboring ‘hood.
