Today was a really good day. Actually I cant really complain about the past few weeks. Everything has been going pretty well, or that Ive just learned to not let all the bad stuff affect me. Cause I am having some car problems at the moment which left me with no choice but to ride my bike to work. That mean riding back and forth from school all day. But you wont hear no complaints here. This is one of the reasons why I love my job. In nursing school I always dreaded the thought of wearing scrubs for the rest of my life. I would have never thought I could dress up in regular clothes, ride my bike all day, and still be a nurse! Awesome right?
Well after work I got a text from Ruel telling me to go to Berkeley to meet up with Ryan. It was spontaneous, I had no plans for the rest of the day, and I feel like my life is starting to turn into a routine, so I rode to the closest BART station and headed out to meet up with them.
Saw this really cool BART ad. Id like to see more ads like these. Artistic, creative, and still easy enough to translate what its trying to show; that BART is filled with weirdos.
As I got out of Downtown Berkeley, there were teachers with picket signs. Its about the current problem with the state budgets and how they are trying to lay off a whole bunch of school staff, and that is even including the nurses. We'll find out tomorrow though if Ill be staying next year or not, but either way I have a Plan B so Im not so worried. The other nurses are though, since some of them are nearing retirement age and their choices for other jobs are very slim, especially in this economy. So hoping for the best.
Met up Ryan and Ruel at the "stairs" at the UC Berkeley campus. We used to do at least once a week summer of '09. We were all unemployed or working 1-2 days a week and just had nothing to do but ride bikes and eat. I still dont know how we were able to afford all of that, but we always managed to do the things we wanted to with spending the minimum amount of money.
I was hungry and Ruel came up with the BEST idea of the day. To go eat at Brazilian Cafe! I havent been here in almost a year and I LOVE their tri-tip sandwich. Ahhh so good.
After filling up we went and rode to Montano Velo to talk and look at bikes. Got some tea to try and wake up Ruel and headed home.
Montano Velo had a bin of vintage cycling jerseys, bibs, shorts, etc. and they were cheap! I felt like a kid in a candy store. I had to control myself and not go crazy. But I did pick up a kit and a jersey. These are usually really expensive, I was really happy to get these for the price that I did. Plus they look pretty damn good and fit me really well.
But man, today was really really good. It felt the same way back 2 years ago. When all we really did was hang out all day. I felt unemployed! haha. I had no worries, just enjoying the wonderful weather, riding, joking around, eating, and all the usual shenanigans. Ah such a good day. We definitely need to have more of these. Summer is just around the corner though and I have a feeling we will.
