torquillI hit a bike today.
Fortunately, it was mounted on the back of a truck, which I managed to back into (after an initial glance, I hadn't been paying attention to directly behind me, where he started pulling out as well). We got out, looked it over, concluded that there was no damage; the bike rack had given it enough freedom to move. No damage to my car, either.
I've been having this feeling that I'm going to get into an accident these last couple of days; frankly, if this is it, I will consider myself to be very, very lucky.
If you hadn't guessed, I drove up today. My last 10-ride pass was going to fall one trip short, and a regular ticket is $22.80 round-trip... it costs less than that in gas and parking to do two trips by car, let alone one. Besides, we're cleaning out the greenhouse in Plant Prop, and I'll have to haul home a bunch of plants.
I need to pick up my biochem exam before lab. Not looking forward to it; the last one was a nasty shock. If I do better than a 70% on this one, I'll be happy... hopefully that will set the bar low enough that I won't be crushed.
A note to the trance DJs out there: the surest way to my heart is to find one of the (rare) copies of Skylab's "Satellite" and mix it in. A DJ from Germany was the latest one to win me over that way. Not an easy piece to find, but quite lovely.
