Selling my car...
Hi Everyone,
Well, as it comes down to it I am nervous about being "carless". Tomorrow is the big day and the plan is still on. However, I don't know what the hold up is emotionally. It seems so ingrained that having a car is somehow the adult thing, and might I say it the American thing as well.
I really believe that I don't need a car while I live in the Bay Area. Months have gone by and I have not used it. There is good and great mass transit here in the East Bay. CityCarShare is wonderful, easy and cheep. I will save hundreds of dollars a year (maybe even thousands).
Still I have this hesitation in doing the deed - finally being done with the car. I will be healthier without it. It is a good economic choice. (and it is pretty darn eco-happy).
I love riding my bike, especially in the rain.
Car Owner,
Mary
PS My plan is to mail the Aids Life Cycle caps soon -- so I will cut off the give at the same time. I wanted to give out at least 20 and I am at 18ish. Tell your friends to email me if they are going to ride in the ALC 2010. I will give them a cap -- for fund raising --or just for fun.

Great shop in Hayward TU TIENDA AZTECA and Aids Life Cycle cap give a way!!
Hi Everyone,
Walked in to this great shop in Hayward on B street. It is called Tu Tienda Azteca. This shop is full of wonders from Mexico. And the owner of the shop Oscar is a fab artist as well. I love his Mexican Wrestler Wall Mirror - he made it with stensles and spray paint. It is just so nifty with a 50's vibe.
Here i a link to the shop: http://www.ttazteca.com/. Or better yet go to the shop. Lots of great Day of the Dead items too, and a new Loteria set of cards (& the old one too).
See you soon,
Mary
P.S. Aids Life Cycle riders : If you have ordered your free cap for riding this year -- they will be mailed out at the end of March (I am making them now). If you haven't resquested your yet... well why not. Send me an email at alloneword.etsy@gmail.com with your address and I will add you to the list. It is that easy. The cap will be one of my Lupe caps and I will mail it to you. You can use it for fund raising or just keep it for good luck while riding. You are doing the hard part ... I just make caps. :)X
