Sound of the Man Working on the Chain

Yesterday, I broke my bike chain. I tried to fix it, but the pieces are too bent to click back in place. The cool thing is I figured out how to use the chain tool. The bad thing is I figured it out enough to know my chain was a goner.

So, hopefully tonight, I'll take the bike in for a new chain.

We are watching the Race of California. Stage 3 today. Some jerk stole Lance's time trail bike.

Farewells can be fun

I sent this letter and they posted it here.

Dear Dallas (and pegasusnews),

I moved to Austin. I know this is sudden and we haven’t finished painting the living room, but what’s done is done. I moved out. We can talk about your sweater later.

With that, please cancel my account.

While I enjoyed your community and writers very much during our relationship, I’m not keeping up with your news as much as I should. Blame my new location, new job and family, but not me. I did everything I could for you. Remember Valentine’s Day? That special stroll along White Rock? That was me.

Also, you’re showing up in my online search results and it might give the false impression I’m still living with you. My mom asked me about that and I had to explain the whole sweater thing and why we moved. She understood , of course. She’s my mom. But, she also told me she just had sprinklers installed and she’s quite committed to her relationship with Dallas. So she’s cool with you.

Anyway, we will always have the sunsets,

Nathan S.
