Somehow our apartment became the cool place for the kids from the bus stop to hang out after school, which is great, but it would also be great if it wasn’t?
@bikepedantic maybe you could impress them with many plays of weird Al’s another one rides the bus as a sort of repellent
@seachanger also, I just tuned my banjo!
@bikepedantic @seachanger you should get some Groucho Marx glasses. Kids love those.
@bikepedantic lean into it and set out a bowl of Cheetos or something whenever it happens.
@bikepedantic There are a dozen or more kids in my neighborhood who know they can always count on me for minor bike repairs, a cold glass of water, or some apple slices - but by the fifth or sixth knock on the door on a random beautiful Sunday my nerves do start to wear thin. Kids! 😬
Kids in the neighborhood bonding with my kid - good!
Me getting like 30 minutes of personal time per day - something else!
