Making Lemonade Kind Of
Dec. 20th, 2007 09:16 amSo this morning (remembering how useless I was on Tuesday due to exhaustion) I decided to give not getting up at 3:45 and getting a ride with Jeremy and instead getting up at 6:30 to catch the 7:20 bus and then walk a couple miles a try again. I got up at 7:30 instead. Still I figured I just needed to persist. I got dressed and my stuff together and was there in plenty of time to reach the 8:20 bus (god I hate break schedule). Unfortunately I was reading on the bus, lost track of where we were and accidentally got off really early. And I couldn't even just continue in the path the bus was going because the sidewalk disappears there. The next bus wasn't for another hour. So I had to backtrack a little (I had gone all the way east (in fact too far east) and still had to go south. I walked back west to a road that I knew went in the right general direction (despite curving back east) and started to walk south. I kept searching for a better option that would not take me further out of my way and found it in a road I knew intersected a bunch of the more direct north-south roads. Better yet, I took a chance on a greenbelt that I suspected would lead me right through the housing developments to within a block or two of my work and it actually led me right to my parking lot. So I was an hour late, but considering I didn't leave the house until I was already supposed to be here and that I messed up so badly it is not so bad. Especially since I think that the way I went might actually be better than the one I had planned on. All things considered I am seriously considering just walking to work in the future. I don't think it would take any longer than the hour early I need to leave for the bus method and I really do need more exercise.
