Juneathon 2009 Day 11 – The Long Way Home

Today I had planned a 3 mile run but after drinking too much wine last night to recover from actually doing some work yesterday I woke up feeling a bit  the worse for wear and as Shaun had asked me if I could go to the Post Office to pay the electricity bill if I could find some time in between playing on Facebook working really hard, I decided to cycle down there and come the long way back.

I’m brave and cycle all the way to the Post Office in the road but the Post Office is on the other side of the road and I don’t know how to get across the road on my bike and I can hear a bus behind me and the lights are on red and I can hear the bus slow down and then the lights turn green and the bus speeds up and overtakes me and it’s not a bus, it’s a lorry and I go onto the pavement and lock my bike up and cross the road and go to the Post Office and pay the electricity bill and then I go to the cashpoint to get some money to spend in the pub tonight and at Donington tomorrow when I go to stand in a field all day and watch Faith No More and I cross back over the road and my bike’s still there and I unlock it and it falls over and I hope no one notices or hears the loud crashing sound it made and I pick it up and cycle up the pavement and a woman stops to let me go past and she says sorry and I say sorry too and I wonder why she’s saying sorry as I shouldn’t be on the pavement anyway and I get to the road where the library is and I cycle up the road and  lock my bike outside the library and go in to pick up a book I ordered and I go round the corner and cycle the long way home.
