another(!) flat tire

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2008.02.25

The thing with the flat tires is getting out of hand. I managed to cycle most of the way home, this time, but this is the third week in a row that's started with a flat.

Now I'm riding on a tube that I've patched myself. A minor sense of experience even if it's along with a large sense of aggravation.

One thing I have to wonder at: why is that when you stop to change your tube on the street, the people around you look at you like must be mad. I mean, people have a tendency to look at me like I'm attempted open heart surgery while sitting on the steps of some building. It's really not that complicated!

A creative person would prefer their music to be stolen and enjoyed than ignored. This is the dilemma for every creative soul: he or she would prefer to starve and be heard than to eat well and be ignored.
