learnteachRain comes to Copenhagen, especially Christiana. Which is cool, but the police have cleared out all the open drugs. Still, walking distance from here with funky art, cool people, and a nice (but smokey in a european sense) music venue.
Change in thoughts: Saying No to Technology. Combining thoughts of src and thoughts of Mr. CM, I'm going to cut around my indecision about what to do, by listing what I'm not going to do, especially on the technology front:
1. No more vehicles. In fact, fix one of the autos up and move it off. I'm not going to get a biodiesel car unless I get rid of BOTH the current cars. Sell the boat. Dump the excess bicycles that have accumulated, and other vehicles.
2. Sell the freezer in the garage. A dream from someone else. But I'll keep dehydrating food...
3. Fix the bicycle up with a carrier, so that I can use it to pick stuff up in a 5 mile radius...It'd be cool to have a Christiana bike...www.christiania.org/bikesframe.html but that's not going to happen.
4. By the same token, pick up a local bikelock and also put a stand on the bike.
5. Any computer bits not being used, give away.
6. Get rid of the uninstalled dishwasher.
7. Install or pitch the plastic gutters.
8, Move TV out of main area.
But I will:
1. Continue to dehydrate food.
2. Keep on being a bibliophiliac. And sell the suckers back.
3. Throw more parties.
4. Move music and pictures onto a laptop.
5. Wireless laptop.

Date: 2004-10-20 04:56 pm (UTC)I tried to bring my bicycling lifestyle back to the States with me when I returned from Europe. It didn't work out very well for very long, even when I worked within biking distance of home. I'm not certain why that is. Social attitudes? Laziness? Perceived waste of time? The fact, I often ended up having to fetch my car to go places anyway? I don't know. I hope you will be able to make a better run of it than I did.
Have fun in Denmark!
