Constant state of flux

So the baker called me this evening to state her concern that we might not have enough time to finish all of the pies. This is a fairly valid concern, our ovens are small and our orders are many. So I returned to work to help out and cook some key limes.

That should take a little bit of the pressure off of them tomorrow night.

It does suck that I opened this morning at 6 AM and as of now it is 9:15 PM. I was able to take off a few hours inbetween during which I built up my new bike as a single speed.

Crazy thing is that the clearance for the rear wheel is so small that I wasn't able to use my 28m tire I had on the Phil's. I switched out with a 23m that came with the bike, the tire was in good shape. I just used the same tube that was in there, it seemed to be holding air ok. Quick note, both tires changed in total time of less than 3 minutes, new record for me, I was able to get away with using just one lever as well.

Well the bike was all ready to go, just fill the tires up and go. Fill up the back and the stem starts leaking. I didn't have enough time to do another swap, especially considering I would have had to take the bike back down to the basement in order to do so (chain tension etc).

So as of this I haven't ridden the bike yet.

It looks real nice though, but I need to get a shorter spindle BB, the chain line is a tad off. I don't know how bad it is yet, since I haven't ridden it but I assume it will go clunk-a-chunk-chunk.


Good thing I drove to work anyway, CopyMax messed up our order, so we didn't have any of the labels we needed for this order tomorrow morning.

FYI 7 Minutes from here to the Quarry Office Max.

(I might have exceeded the speed limit a little.)

Back to pies.
