sigh
so, today i rode two buses home from work and on each bus i rode i sat behind girls that had hair so red that it made my own red hair feel inadequate. for reals, their hair was like orange-y-red explosion. maybe it was colored, i don't know. but still.
the reason i was riding two buses home is that the buses are somewhat screwed up because of the fremont bridge thingy. which means the bus i used to ride to/from work is re-routed and doesn't really go anywhere near my work anymore. i found that out the hard way when i rode it last wednesday and got dropped off in magnolia (or something??) and didn't know how to get to the other side of the ballard bridge.
so now your probably saying to yourself "but wait, i thought you drove to work??" and it's true. i do drive to work! when my car works!!
i would tell you the whole long boring story but i don't feel like it. the bottom line we have to take it to go get fixed and it's totally bad timing. like, hello? we're going on vacation in a week and a half!! we thought about just leaving it in the drive way and dealing with it when we get back but i really would like freedom of having my own set of wheels back. jesus. i mean, if i want to ride the bus to work i have to walk practically half way there to get to the nearest bus stop. yesterday i decided to walk all the way to work. it was fine and all but it takes about 45 minutes compared to 5-7min. driving. guh.
i would really like to get a new car.
anyway. the other day corey and i switched "sides" of the bed. actually, he came in and was all "move over" because he wanted to be close to the alarm. so i slept on the other side and it sucked. last night i couldn't get any sleep. i'm already anticipating crappy sleep tonight.
oh yeah, today in between riding two buses home i stopped at the safeway to deposit a check. then i sat in one of those bloodpressure chairs and had my BP taken. 117 over 69. woop!
