I broke down and reserved another room at Motel 6 for two nights. I had to do something. My last night in a bed was four or five days ago and I'm going insane. I been going back and forth between Kinkos, IHoP, and Barnes and Noble, with just little cat naps, only sleeping heavy for a few seconds at a time. And I'm so sleepy and exhausted I can't think straight...
I typed this yesterday at Kinkos and somehow lost the internet connection right as was going to stop the rant cold to pick it up later. I was jumpy and couldn't sit still, but too drowsy and exhausted to even walk straight. And my hip was on fire! Right now I'm sitting in another room at Motel 6. I've had a nap -- about an hour, hour and a half -- and the rest of IHoP's potato dish. I got my bike back, with two new tires so I can get around without so much time and pain. Four days with being able to lay down and I just knew I was going insane. Got the room for two days; then I'll start going out to Sally and the park every day, hoping for a bed. Haven't decided what to do about the bike. Maybe park it at storage until I get a bed, then keep it at Sally for trips to the library, using the granny cart or a suitcase to exchange clothes. That sounds like the best plan right now. Hauling that damn bike on and off the light rail is a killer. I haven't decided which is worse; riding and lifting the bike, or walking and hurting so bad.
I really needed the nap. I couldn't really afford the room, but at the time I could NOT afford not to get it. If I don't have Sally space by next Monday, maybe I'll have to do this again. At least IHoP food is good, and now that I have the bike back I can do Mimi's, Taco Bell, KFC/A&W, and Denny's.
