On the list of things I never thought could be used to describe me are two things I have seemingly become this week. These things include (a) being a biker (b) being a dater.
*GASP*
No, I can't say anything more. But I sort of have a few quasi-dates that actually barely count as dates this week and if I talk about it anymore I will back out right now by sheer force of anticipation and pressure. (Spoiler alert: I don't think I'm going to be a good dater.)
I will say that becoming a biker this week has solved so many problems. In the area of appearances, in particular, makeup is suddenly irrelevant. Put it on in the morning before my 2.5 mile bike ride and by the time I walk up the two flights of stairs to Spanish after my ride, it's like a just got out of the shower with a freshly washed face. Except, those aren't beats of water. In the area of being a newly reformed frugal college student, there is no need to spend money on gas! You mean not spend forty dollars every 17 days on gas!? By golly, I can't imagine anything better. In a month, that's like a month of groceries!
This week, my friend wanted someone to go with her to do her field research homework assignment. She was like, "There's a cool abandoned homestead with old barns and you have to have a code to get through the gate and I have it!" Sold. So naturally we brought a puppy and I explored some really neat abandoned barns. I actually remembered to bring both my battery charger AND SD card, too, so I could prove I was there.
Wish me luck! That I.... don't flip upside down on my handlebars. Or hit another curb and fall over sideways on bike. Or jam my gears again. And, wish me luck... on those other.... things....
Lastly I feel like I should mention this is the exact spot where Kate Bosworth got married last weekend. You heard it from me first.
