OMG!

Ok, we went to China Town Buffet for lunch and as we were leaving in the car I opened my fortune cookie and this is what is said:



Is that crazy or what?  In my previous blog I was so upset about my battery being 1mm too big, my bike case being too big and the pump gauge not working.  Then I get this.

I found a solution to the Dell DJ.  I strapped it to the back with a rubber band and have it plugged it, it's charging now.  I can keep the bottom piece off as long as I keep it from getting dirty so Chip bought me a neoprene case at Target today.  He also bought me a helmet.   I really have no excuses for riding my bike now to get exercise.  The helmet looks horrible though lol.  It's not that particular helmet, it's helmets in general because my face is so round and it basically shows off just how round my face is.  But, I have faith that in time my round face will turn a bit more oval and I won't look as rediculous.  I will have to get me a new pair of sports sunglasses so hopefully that will even my face out lol.

Very disappointing

Well, I finally got my packages today and I'm not happy at all.  The battery came way earlier than it should've and I was ecstatic about that but it doesn't fit.  It's too wide.  I plugged it in and it turned the Dell DJ on instantly but since the battery was dead it said low battery and shut off.

The frame bag is way too big, that's why I bought the cheaper one because I thought it was going to be smaller.  It covers my drink holder, where will I put my bottle of water now?  I could shove it over so it doesn't cover my water cage I guess.

The pump doesn't do what it is supposed to do.  Sure it pumps the tire up but the gauge doesn't show me how much pressure is in the tire.  What is the point of having a pump with a pressure gauge if it doesn't work?

I can live with the big frame bag, I can even live with a pump that doesn't do it's job (gauge).  I just wanted a mini pump and that's what I got with a bonus feature (that doesn't work).  But the Dell DJ battery, that one I cannot keep and deal with.  That one has to go back and I'm back at square one.  No music.

I was just thinking, if I plug the battery in but then strap it to the back of the Dell DJ with a rubber band then charge it, I wonder if it will still work.  It will be a little bit bulky but at this point I really don't care.  I just want my DJ back.

I'm calming down now, trying to find a silver lining.
