Little Bits

Had a doctor look at my knee for the first time in the nearly eight weeks since my surgery. Looks like the kneecap is stitching itself back together again, and it’s ready to have the two supporting pins removed. As soon as I get them out I can begin physical therapy again to restore flexibility and strength to my leg. If I was to try to bend my knee with the pins still in it, they would “shred the flesh”, as the doctor put it. Two little bastard steel toothpicks live in my leg, but not for long.

Looks like I’ve almost secured a new apartment. My current lease ends next Wednesday and I’ll be able to start moving into the new place the following Friday, so it looks like some couch crashing will be in order. Slowly my belongings are getting boxed in preparation for brief storage and eventual moving into the new digs. I am looking forward to have a gas range, a garden, and a one bedroom apartment all to myself.

I think bicycle frame builders who blog and/or upload photos of frames-in-progress are hot. There are plenty of them on Flickr, including but not limited to Mike of ANT, COURAGE Bicycles, Jordan Hufnagel, Ira Ryan, M.A.P. Cycles, Pereira Cycles, Signal Cycles, and especially Sweetpea Bicycles. Almost all of those builders are from Portland, hey, whadyaknow.
