Thoughts

Walking to work today I saw the cutest little old lady getting out of her car. She had a denim jumper with a yellow sweater and purse...tre Karnette. As she passed me, I realized she had a state badge hanging from her neck. It really hit me that this lady belongs in an RV or out gardening-not getting to work before 9am. I've always wanted a really good paying job so that when it comes her time, my momma won't have to work. I want her to chill out after working her whole life and raising two twin hellions.

Other thought, I am taking a mini break from riding my bike. As in not riding every single day. I love my bicycles so very much, but I ride them so much I have to repair them all the time. Walking the grid has so many opportunites. I make eye contact with way more people, I get to talk to strangers (my favorite). Just a few days ago as I was walking back from Safeway that guy from Intervention who was a pro cyclist asked me for change on a $4000 bike. I laughed and said no. The lady behind me mumbled something, so I turned around and explained who that guy was. I ended up walking with her for a block, just strolling and bitching. I can't even stiffle the smiles.

Work is ok. I would kill a kitten to make more money. I rearraged my desk yesterday and like the newer attempt at privacy. This month my homegirl is getting married. Every single weekend she has an event. Seriously? Shower, Bachelorette, and then wedding. Just to get to all three events would cost me at least $160. With lodging in Tahoe and such, its upwards of $400.00. Yikes! She didn't even put me in the wedding party! I secretly hope the budget will cause me to stay here in Sac. Who would want to leave this weather?
