Bike and Bus

I was excited to start driving Al's car to work next Monday, but my progress is preventing that from happening! I get better every time that I practice, but I'm not going to be ready by Monday. Unless some miracle happens (like a launch of a computer program that teaches people to drive manual cars the same way that Neo learned Kung Fu in The Matrix), I will  use the bike or the bus to get to work until further notice.

I bought my bike when I came to Australia last year, and I used  it daily before I started working. It's been sitting in Al's parent's shed for months. Poor little bike! Since Al has the week off, I think he's going over there tomorrow to clean our bikes and fill the tires with air.

Luckily, the streets I would bike to work have bike lanes on the roads, so they will be pretty safe. It will be interesting to see if I actually follow through with morning and afternoon bike rides.

 There are two good bus routes that can take me to work, although I hate taking it in the morning. I took it for the first time today, because SOMEBODY wanted to sleep in. It wasn't very bad overall, but I still miss out on 15 minutes of sleep. It will be good motivation to learn to drive perfectly.

I need to get in bed NOW so that I can hopefully make up for those 15 minutes. Good night!
