As Far As I Can Tell


So the parts that I’ve been waiting on for over 3 weeks finally arrive today from Handy Bikes. Of course they’re missing the one piece that I need the most: the rear brake assembly for Meredith’s Kreidler. A quick phone call confirms that they don’t have one, leaving me even more dismayed about their service.

I’ve sent off a frantic email to a guy who had one on eBay a couple of weeks ago, which I didn’t bid on because I thought I was getting it from Handy Bikes. I really wish I could just go down to a local shop and buy the parts I need; ahh, mopeds.

It’s a lazy, rainy day in Kalamazoo. I think I’ll make some soup and read.

I love my headphones. The sound is so spatially separated that just now I swore I heard a noise downstairs while listening to Diplo.

Working on a conference abstract, so far it's a little obtuse.
