Pretty cool when your local bike shop misplaces your bike when it's supposed to be getting a tune-up (with home pick-up and delivery). UPDATE: THEY FOUND IT. I CAN RIDE AGAIN!

Finally got around to spinning my copy of Blossom Dearie only to realize they're a pretty gnarly scratch on Side B, Track 3. The rest of the record sounds absolutely flawless, though.
