i'm back

I tried the Facebook thing, rather begrudgingly and hypocritically I admit, but in turned into not the time-suck I was warned, since I'm no lurker nor care to spy on old flames or people I used to know. I check it like I do email, a quick glance, separate the important from the trash and continue with my day. The shortcoming of stepping away from the blog is that I am a windy, circular thinking typist. I waste words like Americans waste gas and this is not a conducive habit for the character limiting Social Network. Any road, back I come. I find, in the past at least, writing about stuff publicly lent a bit of accountability to the tasks I've set forth for myself. Also, I feel interesting things upon the wind that I'll want to document in image and word for myself and that statement is nothing to rely upon without returning to some sort pressure, albeit weak, to update the ol' blog.

I will be building more bikes in the coming months. Especially with Jim's bike done (pictures and words to come) I will have more time, and more importantly less pressure to get them done. I've a few other projects to sort first, but my plan after is to build a half dozen stock sized bikes and have local artists do the paint. Also, working on a recyclery here in Salem with a friend of mine, a labor of love that will need publicity.

Here's to the return to the exercise of the daily expungement of happenings and ideas, so, hello again.
