Perfect.
I should probably take note of this one, because I'm just short of 40 and still prefer to ride my bicycle wearing a sun hat over a helmet.
Although yesterday I ordered one of those helmet hats and a helmet to fix it too at my parents insistence.
I'm really bad about wearing a helmet too, and a bicycle is my main mode of transportation.
I've gotten kind of spoiled by the fact that just about anywhere I need to go here you can get to by bike trail, so a helmet doesn't seem that necessary, although I know it's still a good idea.
Wait until you try the local mint and lemon gin where I live. The hangover from that makes you feel like you have no skeleton.
There was the beer in Korea that did that. I swear it was literally poison. But boy was it cheap.
We have a federal election this Monday, so I'll be spending most of the weekend fretting.
(All uselessly - I already voted. But still...)
Other than that... today I mowed the lawn and cleaned my filthy, filthy bike.
That's gotta be worse than a hangover. My condolences.
I'm feeling better now at least. Food seemed to help.
Now I'm just enjoying the rainstorm we're having. We've desperately needed rain here.

It just rained all day here. It's glorious. We haven't had a rain storm like that since last year.
Yup, this summer has been ridiculously dry and hot. I don't like it.
I invited my friends over and we watched a movie Room (2015).
I can't wait till it rains a little further south where I am!
We had a tiny tease sprinkle the other day and I got so excited lol.

Here is a coin I bought recently.
It is of Constantine, minted ~313 AD in Arles (for a while renamed Constantina after his daughter, hence the Const in mintmark).
Bronze coin ('campgate' type) with some of the silvering remaining.

Wow! Pretty cool. How much would this coin have been worth at the time? Do we know?
anna.

Bronze coins generally are what your regular working folks (but not soldiers) would have mainly used. A bronze coin or two would buy you a loaf of bread and a dried fish, something like that. Gold and silver were beyond the reach of most people then.

Replica I hope.
Purchasing actually artifacts is not exactly legal in most places.

I do not buy replicas and ancient coins are legally auctioned off daily. I am not sure what you mean.
