What's that bashing sound?
So, I'm all sunscreened and packed and ready to go and I figured I'd even drop some stuff off at the dry cleaner and swing by the comic store to see why they haven't called me back and -
My bike tire is flat.
We never bothered to get a patching kit and foot pump. The only pump we have is in the car.
I still can't ride the black bike (No basket, too tall, set up with seat and handlebars level so when I wear a backpack - which: no basket = always - it really really hurts my shoulder because the weight is on it weird. I can pedal it, it's not too tall to pedal, but it's too tall for me to put my feet down which makes me feel unsafe and the balance issue makes it unusable.)
I don't feel like walking at 2. I'll go on Monday TUESDAY - damn long weekends. This crimps my plans and makes me really annoyed. Stupid ugly flat tired schwinn. Wm promised that if it looks like I'm still going to use my bike I can get a new one. But those keep getting put off and put off - I was supposed to get a new one the first time when I proved I would ride it at all. I wonder how long it'll take and then what'll be in the way when I've proved I'll still use it at the new place. I'm so sick of being a dependant. I'm sick of dealing with hand me down crap from my in-laws that only half works. I'm sick of the scorn from the liberal kids at school. I need a real job. But I have no skills except for quick learning, passable Japanese, and Microsoft Office fluency. I need to write a resume but that's why I was going to the career center.
