deceived!

at midday the rain ended and the sun came out and the day turned glorious so i rallied all my energies, donned gym clothing and began the walk to the gym. never clocked the distance but it takes 90 minutes so i estimate somewhere around five miles. it started pouring again 30 minutes in. i loathe getting rained on, especially just for a cardio day. hell, i could've run in place while watching a movie and been much happier.

bad flashbacks on the walk back when a driver stopped a little short to allow me to use the crosswalk and got superbly rear ended. and i was close enough that he would have hit me had i been two or three steps into the crosswalk. if he had only known that i was slowing my pace to let him make the right turn his day would be going much more lovely right now. the sound of the impact two feet away from me brought back all those unpleasant memories from December. and i was in a foul mood because it was raining twice as hard then and i was freezing and my joints were tightening up. then i got to wait 45 minutes to make a witness statement for cops who never showed. curse you, karma!

two hours later and i'm finally starting to thaw out. diving back into twin peaks and working on a new master plan: owning some sort of dubious bar/casino/brothel just across a border. haven't decided on which border yet though. hmmmmmmmm mexico or canada? rage onward debate!
