I just realized I had yet to officially update you on a new addition to my life. About three weeks ago I acquired a new bike. It's fire truck red and black. It's just a cruising bike, having only 3 gears. But for me it's perfect!! It's capable of doing everything I would ever think to do with a bike and it's just the right size for midget me. Which actually was the entire motivation behind getting a new bike in the first place. The bike that the Brueckmeier's had planned on me using beforehand, and that every one of the previous au pairs had used, was just too big for wee little me. I even tried my best to make it work, which entailed me hoisting myself onto it then attempting to pedal - I say "attempting" because my feet failed to reach the pedals at the lowest point of the wheels' rotation - and then hurling myself off the bike once I managed to stop it. Oh yeah I somewhere in that process I managed to take a gouge at my thumb, and was subsequently left bleeding profusely for the next half hour or so. So needlesstosay this new bike is a good change.
