the half-green bike

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kenny's new bike is coming along nicely: the first coat of final paint is now half done, and I've replaced the white tires with black ones.

Sadly I managed to spray-paint the chain, which in a small child's bike is looped through the frame. Not too clever of me, but I reckon it'll still work.

It's been a moderate amount of work, but it's coming along nicely.

Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces.

—Sigmund Freud
