bike day

today, in addtion to be cleaning day, is also bike day. i think it's about phase 6 in my bike saga.

phase 1: decide i will have a bike in nyc

phase 2: get parents to transport brother's old toys-r-us huffy bike from garage to nyc apt

phase 3: watch bike take up space in apt

phase 4: get bike-expert-friend JF to inspect bike, only to tell me there are 10 things wrong with it but it will still only take less than $20 to fix it if i do the mechanics myself. ha.

phase 5: bring bike to bike shop only to be made fun of for having crappy old bike. buy bike parts and ignore bike store worker's advice to invest in a new bike for $180. also ignore bike store worker who wants me to pay him for the mechanics. ha. oh yeah and buy a helmet of course! parts: $16, helmet: $40. i'm so close!

phase 6: hazon buddy ss is coming tonight with tools. am i nearing the phinal phase yet?
