ARGH.
So, I finally made it to the gym today. I've been signed up since January 5, but as I hurt my knee the next day, no gym for me. Of course I haven't been to PT yet so I don't know that I should've gone to the gym, but dammit. As londo keeps telling me, I complain about my body shape but I don't do anything about it. So I decided to do something about it.
I figured I'd go at 5, do 20-30 minutes of low-impact cardio, and leave. Catch the 5:30 or 5:45 bus to Central, get home at 6:30-7:00.
By the time I walked to the gym, talked to the guy at the front desk about stuff, found the ladies' locker room, found an empty locker, and changed clothes, it was 5:30. Grr. I still did 20 min on an elliptical, getting out at 5:50. Assumed I'd catch the 6:00, then. Which I did, although it left at more like 6:12. (Which means the bus I saw passing as I was walking to the stop, at about 5:55, was probably the 5:45 bus.) So it got to Central not in time to catch the NEXT bus I need to catch, the 91 at 6:30. Which means I had until 6:50 for the next one. "Cool," I thought, "I'll run to Whole Foods and visit
sandrylene and pick up some stuff."
I am in checkout when the 6:50 bus goes by. Things hadn't gone as planned inside the store. Sigh. The next bus is at 7:45 - no way I'm waiting for that. I begin walking towards home (with heavy grocery bags!) and planning.
I call
kobold a couple times; no answer. I mentally bitch about lack of car and lack of car-having friends. I walk up to Cambridge and wait for the 69. Find out I missed that one by about 5 minutes too, and have 15 to wait. Knit. Be cold.
Get on 69 bus. Get to Lechmere 10 minutes after connecting bus. Wait another 20. Get home.
So... instead of getting home at 6:30-7:00, I'm home at 8:10. Tired, pissed off, and my knee
hurts like hell from all of the walking I did.
And yes, I could've gotten a taxi at any time; I had $12 in cash on me. I didn't feel like it. Sod off.
Also, it's Valentine's Day, and although I don't feel the need to do anything special with londo for it, it would be nice to at least talk to him. He was going to bed this morning as I was waking up, and I haven't seen hide/hair of him since. Bleh.
