I haven't written for a couple of days, so I had better get y'all up-to-date with me. I survived two days of biking to work, barley. Yesterday was a code red ozone day, so I don’t think that help my breathing situation any. Danger bike is all screwed up, and I don’t think it could make another trip, so I am glad I have a car now.

On to my car situation. I got my big ol’ check Monday night, and then I promptly set about a series of unfortunate events. I figured it was a big check, so it needed “special protection,” so I put it into an envelope, which I did not seal. I also wanted to get it into my bank account ASAP, so I put it into my backpack to take to work on my bike, rather than wait the two days until I had a car. Needless to say, I got pretty hot on the 45 minute ride, which caused me to sweat profusely. When I got to work the first thing I did was take the envelope out of the backpack, which I noticed was slightly damp. Then, to my horror, I noticed that the glue had been activated, and the envelope was now stuck to the face of my check. An amused co-worker pointed out I could steam it off, but I had already damaged the check by trying to remove the envelope myself. Rather than take the check home again on my bike, I decide to go to the credit union and show them my plight. After all of the tellers and supervisors finished laughing at me, the manager said it would probably go through, but they would put a 9 day hold on it just in case. I haven’t heard anything yet, so I’m optimistic. If it doesn’t go through, I will have to figure out how to get a new check, and get my buyer to sign it again. I guess I just wanted this experience to be as exciting as possible.

All of my furniture is now sold! In fact, I have been so busy selling furniture, I have not had time to work on my website. I hope to get the redesign done this weekend.
