new futon

7:25 am Wednesday 3 April 2002

After work, which was some good some bad, Eric helped me do a futon switcharoo. He and Meredith bought a new home and wanted their futon back, which I had been using for a couple months now.

Before he got to my house, he called and prompted me with, "I'm in Meredith's Explorer, so she has a great sound system, but bad music, so bring some CDs that we can rock out to." Awesome!

Prince, Life is Meat, BAD, Schoolhouse Rocks, 20 Best Boomin' Bass Hits, Public Image Limited, Whodini, Young MC, and others

Dropped off a couch at his storage shed, picked up my dad's futon from his storage shed, brought dad's futon to my apartment (stopped in Tomball at Wendy's for food and I went in barefoot, but they didn't notice, ha ha), took Eric's futon out of my apartment.

Eric said he could get his futon into his storage shed without a problem (it's significantly lighter than my dad's), so I stayed at home, called Gene the cooking-and-bike-maintenance machine to look over my bike after my accident on Monday.

Put the futon together while waiting for Gene, who was slightly delayed; he got to my apartment about 11pm.

Beautiful cleaning and re-lube job, and he found a broken spoke on my back wheel. I'll get it fixed tonight. I'm very thankful that I asked Gene to look at the bike. I wouldn't have inspected it, and woldn't have found the broken spoke...

Thankful for Eric and Gene in my life. :-)
