Complications are irrelevant.
Even though they are irrelevant, I get experience points in "Expert travelling" skill.
The ride for a movie for the forum was a piece of cake compared to this.
Monday:
Provo -> Sandy: 811
Sandy -> Historic Sandy: TRAX
Historic Sandy -> ~2000 East 9400 South: 94
___WENT OUT OF BUSINESS, door locked___
~2000 East 9400 South -> Historic Sandy: 94
Historic Sandy -> Murray: TRAX
Murray -> ~4800 S State St: walk.
In a great piece of Russian literature "12 chairs" there was a town which had two types of businesses: haircutters and undertakers. Murray has one type of business, it's selling cars. EVERYBODY IS SELLING CARS. The whole Main street is built of car dealers.
Anyways, they (not the car dealers) didn't have ANYTHING I've been looking for. And no I don't want to special order and wait for a week I need it today.
~4800 S State St -> Murray: walk
Murray -> Millcreek: TRAX
Oh sh*t oh sh*t oh sh*t this schedule sucks I am not making it on a bus. Or I'll be spending this night at Sandy bus station. Let's walk 3000 yards.
*After 700 yards* I am not making it on foot either. Whatever. Beback tomorrow.
Millcreek -> Sandy: TRAX
Sandy -> Provo: 811
Tuesday:
BYU -> ~80 E University Pkwy: 830
These have nothing, these have nothing, these only got CDs. Shmucks.
~80 E University Pkwy -> Sandy: 811
Sandy -> Millcreek: TRAX
Millcreek -> ~2000 E. 3300 S.: 31
COFFEE SHOP! YES! *censored due to a description of honor code violation*
These guys have a lot of stuff, but not what I am looking for. At all. I don't need Darth Vader's head thanks. Only if you have the actual genuine one.
~2000 E. 3300 S. -> ~3000 E. 3300 S.: 31
OK, I really expected this to be bigger for "The only shop in the State". They have such a nifty web-site. Got something from them at least, but I really hoped for more. Now, the last resort. Am I making it? Unlikely.
~3000 E. 3300 S -> ... wait a sec what's that? Bus, STOP!
OK, that's all cool and if I ever need a model of a tank I know where to come. But I don't really need all that definitely-boyish stuff right now. Do you have...? Ok, didn't really expect you to.
...-> Millcreek: walk
Millcreek -> Sandy: TRAX
Sandy -> Provo: 811
Am I am making it to the last resort? 21:30? No, I don't really know bus schedules around these parts. Will have to do it tomorrow.
Wednesday:
Before going to the last resort let's check some other place that's on the way... I vaguely rememeber them having some stuff...
BYU -> Timp: 830
Shop 1: DARTH TATER??? SPUDTROOPER??? Wow. These are completely not what I planned, but they are hilarious. Make them candidates. Yea, children 2 years old and above. You mature when you are not ashamed anymore of studying toys that are definitely below your age.
Shop 2: *Music plays: bud-a-bud-a-I-am-still-waiting-for-my-bid-on-ebay* What? That's your music? OK, what have you got? "MySpace ruined my social life" t-short. Umm... Umm... Well I'd go for Xanga. Maybe. No I won't. Now, back on topic. YES! YES! That's what I need! Oh foolish I was for going to Salt Lake twice when everything is right here! Now we are done.
Cashier: wow this stuff is like experiencing great boost in popularity recently. I sold a lot of it!
Yea right. That's cause everyone else is closed.
Timp -> BYU: 830
Total number of rides: 18. I made UTA work for their $60 bus pass.
...
Epilogue
Later in the evening:
Quark officers: Aaaa! We don't have the movie! Aaaa! We are gonna watch Cartoon Network for the whole film forum!
Time to save the day.
First phone call.
-Blockbuster video, this is Chelsea...
-Hello, I am looking for an anime title "Place promised in our early days". Do you have it?
-No we don't. Actually someone asked before. Is there like a school assignment or something?
*~30 phone calls. Noone has it.*
Thirty first phone call.
-Blockbuster video, this is Chelsea (I swear, they ALL were named Chelsea. I don't get it. Do DVD rentals only hire Chelseas?)
-I am looking for an anime title...
-We don't have it but did you try our website?
-I tried EVERYTHING.
Wait a sec, I didn't try their website. Maybe it's smart and knows which movies are available where.
Website: Kearns!
Where the heck is Kearns?
For future reference, when I save the world again: I don't like mints. But I do like Toblerone :)
