maybe

Maybe tonight I’ll have time to write a blog…

It is 8.20pm.
If you ask me, a good time to be asleep. Especially for kids who have to go to school tomorrow.
But she is still awake. And wondering if a bike can ride straight up mountain.” Like so…” And she lifts her arm up, straight up in the air. Far above her pillow.
We talk about biking. How a horizontal road without any rise in heights is the easiest to ride. But how steeper the road how harder it will be. We conclude that if a mountain would be perfectly vertical straight, you cannot bike on it.

But you can do it with a car. She is resolute when she says it.

No you can’t.
I’m resolute too.

Yes. You can!
Dismay.

No, you can’t!
Irritated. (8.25!!!)

You said you did that. With Sophie!
Desperate.

And we talk. I ask. She tells. I wonder and try to dig deeper in my memory were this idea comes from. With Sophie? So it was in the Netherlands? But there are no mountains in the Netherlands. No, she knows. But it was a road. Straight up.

Ding. A bell starts ringing.
I did tell her, about the typical Dutch thing. The bridge. To let ships through.

Now I tell her how I didn’t drive up that road. How that’s not allowed. And not possible. Gravity and such (it is only 8.30pm, so why not). How we stopped. Waited. Till the ship had passed. The road was horizontal again. And how we than could go on.

We both exhale.
Relieved.

Now we can sleep.

And the blogpost?
Maybe tomorrow.
