Bike ordered, only two thousand dollars late

So, instead of further studying for my midterm this morning, I ordered my bike from Zanes. I got a quick sizing done yesterday at East Coast Cycling Academy (after getting lost and irritating the owner, Les), called in to Brendan at HQ, and got the ball rolling. Once the sizing was done it all went pretty fast, I have to say that I'm impressed with the efficiency of it all. Maybe it's because I've been terribly inefficient of late. Because I could have ordered my bicycle two thousand fund-raised dollars ago. Ooops. But, it's done now, and tommorrow I'm leaving to go back home for spring break. Sadly, it shan't be super fun for me; I need to work as a substitute teacher for as many days of the week as possible. I don't really care for the job, but the money's great for essentially babysitting. I really commend my mother, and all educators out there.

With any luck there will be a little fun to be had over break; I'm planning on biking from Shepardstown to D.C. with a friend of mine, and also visiting another friend in Richmond at the end of the break. So essentially, I just have to muscle my way through five unpleasant days of employment. I really don't want to graduate, ever. Because then what am I looking at? Forty, fifty years of work? Ughhh. Maybe I can pick up enough about bikes this summer to become a retailer or something like that. Specialty retail is supposed to be a lot of fun. Anyway, this is a time for gladness, because my BIKE IS ORDERED, SUCKER!!!!!!! SPRING BREAK, HOMBRESSSSSSSSS!
