Did you know that it is National Bike Month? Next week is Bike to Work week, and next Friday, May 18 is Bike to Work Day. I am participating in Bike to Work Day and I’ll try to ride my bike to work as many days as I can next week. I’ve been riding my bike to work a couple days a week for the past several weeks. I’m lucky I live pretty close to where I work.  It’s nice that my city supports biking.

Jobs I Don’t Want

In no particular order:

1. Chain gang

2. Cleaner of windows on high rise buildings

3. Bus driver

4. Sanitation worker

5. Mortician

6. TV news guy

7. Teller at that bank on lower Brownsboro Rd. that is always getting robbed so they now have this super-secure door where you have to go in one at a time and stand in a certain place for it to open, which isn’t clear so they have to tell every.single.person. who comes to the bank how to get in.

I ordered some new Tevas from The Walking Company online, but they were too big, so I had to go to the mall & exchange them at a Walking Company store. I found the shoes in the background that are absolutely perfect- I wanted a lightweight, closed toe sandal that I could walk & bike in. I’ve ridden my bike w/them twice already & love them. I’d never heard of the brand “Abeo” before. The sales guy brought out the flip flops in the foreground too, trying to make some extra commission, probably, but it totally worked because I tried these guys on & they were so comfy. I’m always buying shoes from Shoe Hell (Carnival) or some other discount place, or online where half the time they don’t fit. Plus, buying 2 pairs at once means one less trip to the mall.

I’ve been keeping a diary off and on since I was seven. I quit keeping a diary in 2002 when I first started blogging, but I started keeping this “paper journal” in 2010. It’s almost time for another notebook. Diary keeping/journalling is such a good practice.

I haven’t gotten my haircut in about a year. It’s a combination of my hating the bangs I got a few years ago, not wanting to spend money on things like haircuts and a vague desire to have it long again. There you have it.
