This morning, I ran out of the house without the essentials to get me to work quickly – MUNI/BART pass or cash. Unfortunately, my keys were also sitting next to the pass on the kitchen counter, so I couldn’t just run back inside. I was already running a little later than I would’ve liked, even though I don’t technically have to clock in at a certain time. Luckily, I had my wallet [sadly, no cash], which contained an ATM card.

Since I wasn’t using a B of A card nor did I have one of those no-ATM-fee Schwab cards, I would have to incur some sort of fee anyway. So I ran inside the liquor store down the street instead of trekking for another five minutes to the bank.

Of course, the story would not be without extra complications. My ATM card got rejected. What?! So an extra seven minutes over the phone with a customer service rep. Apparently, the ATM card was linked to a closed savings account. Good going, Shitty Bank [Can you guess which bank this is?]!

The ATM fee of $1.99 – not horrific. AND the guy running the store did not even blink an eye when I, without having made a purchase, went on and on about my horrible morning and then asked him to please break a $20 so that I could catch the bus.

OMG, lifesaver!

  • going to bed earlier for once. #
  • driver on muni 8361 this morning’s a bit cramky. #

  • could definitely go for a snack. grumbly tummy. #
  • haven’t eaten lunch yet. my goal is to leave this client by 4… #

On Sunday, I went indoor rock climbing for the first time. Oh man, my arms were super sore for the last few days. Even areas that normally do not hurt were sore, such as the armpits. Hah! It’s an interesting sport. Very individualistic in that you really have to push yourself when you are so far off the ground and figure out where you need to go by yourself. At the same time, you need a belaying partner too, someone to watch out for you.

I know that if I’m straining myself that I must be 1) super weak, and/or 2) doing something wrong. Maybe I should do other exercises to strengthen the arms. As for technique, I’m just going to get used to climbing a bit first. I’ll work on technique when I can.

I plan to go again once I’ve fully recovered.

Imagine these lanky arms up a wall. My belaying partner said that I looked like a spider. Hahaha. The shirt is from BustedTees who is having a 24-hour sale on their tees – all for $12 on April 23rd. I wore it out on Friday night when we were doing the usual Friday night bar crawl. Good times.
