first step

in an effort to prevent the oil giants from getting as much money from me as they can, i decided tonight that i am cancelling my trip to kansas city [sobs uncontrollably] for the weekend. it was to be an architecture school reunion that i was really looking forward to. that, and being able to see my surrogate family whom i miss terribly.

but alas, my wake-up call came yesterday, at the gas pump, when my car took over fifty dollars to fill up. i also notified boss and clients that from this moment forward all meeting must take place at my office, as i am not driving anywhere i don't have to. this being my own personal protest since company is not raising the mileage reimbursement for personal car use for meetings. i did suggest to boss that i wouldn't mind taking my bike to all of my meetings, but i guarantee i'll be late. and smell like man sweat. oh, and be wearing spandex, too! i thought they'd see it my way.

so back to my weekend: now i have an entire weekend to bike about town and save even more gas. apart from getting two[!] eighty-mile bike rides in this weekend, what [or whom?!] shall i do with the rest of my weekend? maybe i should i hold auditions....just a thought.
