I mean, literally back on the saddle. A few weeks ago I fell off my bike in the dorkiest way possible because of my new shoes + clip pedals and ended up (mildly) fracturing my elbow. It sounds worse than it was luckily, but it hurt like hell that first week. I could only straighten my arm out maybe 60% of the way... no bueno. This week it's finally starting to fade away, so I hopped back on the saddle a bit earlier than the doc recommended and ripped around the park. I don't regret it at all. I feel incredible.
I made a mini album in 6 days and set a ton of constraints so that I would finish it. it was a life-changing experience to be honest and now I am more at peace !!! it is called Folk Noise to Fall Asleep To and I am happy it exists. where do people listen to music here? this is the Spotify link but I have it on most streaming services so that my parents could listen too (they do not understand SoundCloud and Bandcamp)
I started doing this when I was 30. there is always something interesting born from these images. years from now, I will step away, far enough away to see a pattern emerge from the chaos.
