Cripes…

Well…yeah, I’m not doing my job by doing a political one today but I’ll get back to it tomorrow…I hope…today was not as bad a day as yesterday and it was pretty quiet until right now so I had to make another call to have the cops come out and shut down the same house as last night…but, that’s not what this is about….after I got my morning ride in, I parked the bike in the back yard since I knew I was going to get back on it at some time today…and I did but just as I took off from the alley, the damn bike had a flat rear tire…so I put it back in the garage and took the back tire off and went downstairs where my tools and parts are to replace the tube…and I found what had pierced it which is normally a relief…so I put a new tube in the tire and aired it up but didn’t notice that I had run over something that had cut the sidewall of the tire and had made it unusable…so I had to take the whole thing back apart to put a new tire on, too, and that took me a half hour altogether and didn’t get back on the bike until after 4:30 which made me late to come here and finish up for the day….I did need to replace that tire at some point since it was pretty bald so I don’t feel bad about that and I am going to try to repair the tube since it was punctured with what looked like a small piece of wire and I should be able to fix it for a spare tube…I hope….will save me 8 bucks…
