Babysitting

I got back to Okinawa yesterday to find that my friend that had borrowed my van wile I was gone, is now in Korea; and left his bike in the back of my van. Of course I can't just leave it in there the whole time that he's gone, so I brought it up to my room. Now I have three bicycles (one road, two mountain) in my room. It also gives me some time to work on his bike; there have been so many little things with it that have bothered the both of us and he could just never find the time to bring it by for me to tinker with it.

PostSecret

Form time to time I look over the PostSecret blog. I really wish I'd have found out about Post Secret a long time ago, it fascinates me. Anyway, I read this just now and thought it was sweet:

"At my college we have a bulletin board inspired by PostSecret. One day a photograph of a sunset was posted. Written across the photo in white ink it said "sometimes I wonder if anyone would care if I didn't wake up in the morning". 

A few weeks later another photograph was posted. This was a photo of a sunrise. In white ink it said "yes, I would". . . I wish I could tell the person "thank-you" because the sunset was mine."

I'm a Daddy again.
