Huh.

Thank Godzilla for livejournal, otherwise I might never have known that the TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) is on strike

It would be nice for it to be resolved. The traffic is crazy today.

TTC bathrooms are always gross. I don't know why that must be...but I'm sure that you couldn't pay me enough to clean them either.

biking to the airport?!? with a bike strapped to your bike?!?

i'm hugely impressed. that sounds impossible, to me.

FYI - If something goes wrong with the bike plan, there is a shuttle bus to/from the airport that stops at some of the big hotels downtown. anyone can take it. its $12 one-way.

[monster_grrrl]

Or the bus from Yorkdale...Yorkdale could work...nah, Yorkdale is a far bike ride. But at least I know the way!

[monster_grrrl]

It might actually be impossible. I'm not sure I know how to bike to the airport.

i rode my trike to cherry beach the other day and was too tired to ride it back to bloor and dufferin after, so i left it at my friend's place at dundas and ontario. was planning on taking the streetcar to pick it up today. so now i'm stranded at home, sans wheels. at least i'm sick and have no desire to leave the house. later i'm hopefully getting a ride to my bike so that i can ride it home through the smog with my already-congested chest.

[monster_grrrl]

Poor stranded you! Perhaps a kind person would ride your trike over to you. At least you're not trying to go anywhere today.

i was so happy to have lentin this morning, and i didn't even know about the strike until got to work. the bumper to bumper traffic was awful!

i like the idea of you picking up the doctor on a bicycle limousine, though!

[monster_grrrl]

Not sure I can actually handle the bike ride out to the airport, but I do really like the idea.

Wasn't traffic awful? I'm so glad that I regularly bike, because trying to do it in this traffic for the first time would have been horrible!

[lumo]

it really would be horrific riding to the airport - especially without ttc when so many people are driving and creating even more smog for us to breathe in. it would be so hard on the lungs!

but yes... very cute idea.
i imagined it with you decorating the basket and just putting him in it, though ;)

[monster_grrrl]

Aww. That would be the cutest. Although the cargo bike basket is not the most comfortable.

if you hadn't gone bike shopping with me, i may have had to walk to work. and that's far first thing in the morning.

also, you should friend me (or however this so-called "livejournal" works), because i now have an account. i almost wrote excuse. weird.

lesley. xoxo.

You are friended! Hurrah! Now you can spy on me and know all the intimate details that I share on the internet. ;)

Lemme know if you want on my sex filter.

Bike shopping was fun. And part of my master plan to get everyone I know to ride a bicycle!

Re: thankyouthankyouthankyou

[sabotagerabbit]

sex filter is fine, if you want to put me on (i'm no prude!).

as for everyone you know riding a bike: now all we need are those red and white striped onesies!

xo.
