Something for Nothing

 Why is it everyone expects something for nothing? I can't stand it. Especially in the line of work I am in. Working in a Community Bike Shop is tough sometimes. Everyone expects a hand out..well let's be honest...I understand the money doesn't grow on trees, that is the very reason I am doing what I am doing to help people get things done for as little as possible. However, I get people expecting things for free. What they don't understand is that we as an organization have to pay for rent, electricity, supplies not to mention pay for staff and that if we do not get support we can not be around to support them. It is a vicious cycle and everyone is afraid to step on anyones toes but at the end of the day I have to keep calm and keep pushing forward. Making moves as a wise friend of mine has said. I will weed out the people who do not appreciate what I am doing and get new faces who do. With that said I am done.

My little girl is the best lite helper while I'm getting the Subaru BRAT ready. Should get the stripes on soon. 

Street parked

Spotted this Volvo wagon while I was camping in pismo, ca. Things like this make me stop and snap a photo.

A new day waits you

Everyday is a new day, everyday is a chance to start over, start fresh, look at yesterday and laugh because today is your day. For those living in the past I don't envy you. Stop thinking about what could have been and start focusing on the right now because you only get once chance to live so make sure everyday counts. 

New mountain bike day!

So today I put together a new to me frame/fork for my off road pleasures. It's an older Schwinn and rock shock that I migrated all my old parts too. Just waiting to get a new front brake and then put some miles in. 

Late nights

Tonight I'm sitting here trying to find sleep. It's nights like these that keep me up for no reason. My mind going a mile a minute but in no direction but in every direction at the same time. So I sit here and ramble about nothing. Why? I have no idea. No one will read this. No one will care. I don't care, I won't read this again. It's just to pass the time. Fuck time, fuck nights, fuck days and fuck my life. I'm nothing, I'm nobody, I'm not important so why do I think I need to write this? Maybe one day ill find the answers to my questions, but until then fuck it.
