So, what did you guys do this morning?

Sep 23, 2010 12:51

I'm the world's worst morning person. I alternate between being a zombie and being within a kind word of biting people's faces off. (Seriously, do not say "Good morning!" to me some days, you might lose a nose.) I hate getting up early, and if I worked a 9-to-5 job (versus a faces-saving 10-to-6 job like I've got), I'd probably explode.

One of the ( Read more... )

work, kitties, biking

That's an awesome work benefit, even if it did mean getting up earlier than usual. :)

They have lots of these little fairs/fests/expos, and I so rarely motivate myself to go. While I was there, I was reminded that I need to bring my laptops over some time when they're marking those against theft, too.

OMG you exist!

You're not kidding. I haven't posted in over a week, which I'm sure is an LJ first, seeing as I, like, post even when on vacation.

We need to hang out more. You have to stop being so popular, though.

You should respond to my email about events.

It helped that the second I started to stir at my new, earlier alarm, Oscar was head-butting me in the face and being distractingly adorable.

Hey, the cats head-butt me, and they always have food. (They only eat dry, so they have the big dispenser.) Maybe it is love?

I always thought they were trying to help me wake up so I could write in the morning...

I know it's at least partially love, since he's purring and all, but I think I read a study where they demonstrated that cats know to purr to get what they want. They truly are one opposeable thumb away from world domination.

Please don't talk about crashing in a post about bicycling! Seriously, I saw a bicyclist get cut off in the bicycle lane by a car yesterday; he made it, but he screamed at the driver for it. It's frightening out there.

But then I nearly get clipped by bicyclists on the sidewalk, and my sympathy wavers.

I did get a very angry horn honk from a driver today. There was a truck that had failed to get completely around the corner as it turned right which was blocking everything in that corner. Pedestrians went around its back end, and so did I, and so did several cars try to do while simultaneously trying not to kill pedestrians and me. The one car just held his horn down for an age at me when I cut him off. Well, from his perspective I cut him off; reality is somewhat different, though I'm by no means blameless.

To date, that, and a near dooring are the only times I've come close to any incidents. Been thiiiiiiis close to wanting to Force Choke drivers, pedestrians, and other cyclists (WHO ALMOST RAN INTO ME WHEN THEY WERE GOING THE WRONG WAY ON THE BIKE LANE WTF THERE ARE LANES ON BOTH SIDE OF THE ROAD WTF ARE YOU DOING!!!!???), but ::knock on wood:: so far, so good.

Haha I've never been a real morning person at work either, although I do a good enough pretending. And you would probably hate working with me 'cause I enjoy being a retard and harassing coworkers. I'm not obnoxious about it or anything. I'm good at gauging peoples temperaments and do enough to make them laugh and cringe, but stop short of being annoying. There's no fun in not knowing when to say when. ANYWAY...

Great news about the bicycling to work and the tuneup! I hope you're able to stay motivated and take advantage of it until the weather no longer permits it.
