(no subject)
last night was awesome.
okay. done as of yesterday and today:
-finished ann's bike. she gave me 50 bucks.
-delivered the necklaces. i think they liked them.
-finshed designing my future british bike-to-be
-called spectrum about coating the peugeot frame and fork. $310! whoa.
my city quiver/fleet/stable/gaggle of bikes will now consist of two headliners: the badass, ridiculously fast pearl white unmarked peugeot and the recklessly convention-bucking, traditionally inspired converted british-three-speed utilitarian in gloss black, a surprisingly fast sleeper on the straightaway.
i got a haircut. i am shorn, like samson, like the proud lion without his mane. I am nothing.
anyway, the week is coming to an end. juneschool is over, I leave for bigkid CTY in two days, and the blue raleigh is getting ready for sale. in a matter of tires, a seatpost, a cog and chainring bolts, the thing will go up on ebay and hopefully sell for a profit.
still left on the list:
BIKES
finish rebuilding and sell the blue raleigh for profit
dremel axle slots on fork
get chainring bolts/track cog/cheap chain/front tire
fix up pedals
figure out seatpost
refurbish/repaint/rebuild the badass raleigh for myself
peugeot
dremel off the brazeons
get it powdercoated (arranged)
get a new 20mm tire
redo hubs
flip/cut bars
nice, classy stem
COMPUTERS
silence the current case
nice sound card
get another palm pilot
PERSONAL GROOMING
get a wardrobe (in progress)
MUSIC
move better speakers into the room
digital amp?
make a fretless bass out of a 2x4?
get an ipod/equivalent?
COOL SHIT
call nell and see when she gets back to the city, start gearing up for movies in WSP <-- bryant park film festival too!?
16th birthday party in the style of GG, with a little help from a certain SS
17th birthday party
redo my room
figure out the party bus
ride to cool places
write essays on the dalton plan
learn to weld
