It looks all but certain now that I’ve found a little work that will help with the bills and it starts in less than eight hours from the moment I write this. As if it wasn’t going to be hard enough falling asleep at a reasonable time tonight after being up until past 6:00am the last two nights, now I have to do it thinking how I need to fall asleep for work. Already back to the structure of time and work days! I’m forcing myself not to begin number crunching on the amount of sleep I’ll have when I awake and so far it hasn’t been that bad.
This work happens to be out near the airport, which is about nine miles from my house. Because Buffalo is only a real city in theory but not in practice, there isn’t any light rail connecting downtown (near where I live) and the airport (near where I will be doing this work). But why would anyone want to get downtown from the airport? (Or just get a car hippie?) And so instead of taking maybe a 45 minute light rail ride that would especially help during the colder months—if don’t decide to quit before then—I plan on making the trek via bike, even going through the dreaded [sic] East Side of Buffalo to get there. It shouldn’t take much more than 45 minutes and, even though this will add 90 or more minutes to each work day, it’s a way of forcing me to use my bike, be outside during the summer weather and perhaps even get in a little better shape.
If I can find the silver lining in work, I just might be able to find it in nearly anything.
