It's that time of year again
Oct. 16th, 2002 10:56 amWhen due to flooding, East Bristol grinds to a standstill and I get to spend more time on the bus than I do at home. When living here goes from almost tolerable to a complete nightmare (as this is also the time of year the neighbours like to set off fireworks when I'm trying to sleep).
This morning I was on the bus for an hour and 15 minutes instead of the usual 20 to 30. Good thing I didn't have anything important to do this morning. Last night it took an hour to get home. I wouldn't mind so much if I could read on the bus in the evening, but I'm too tired and it gives me a headache at that time of day.
This is when I really resent being too disabled to cycle to work, which is the only sane way to get around this city, and/or resent being so deeply in debt and having such a pathetic excuse for a job that I can't afford to live somewhere within walking distance (the only other sane solution to Bristol).
It doesn't help that things at work are still rather sucky, so it's not like I have a lot of motivation to get out of bed in the first place.
