yesterday i was adventure-minded and, consequentially, i had an excellent day. this is ironic though because almost everything that could have went wrong did go wrong. the train and the bus could not have taken longer or been more crowded with obnoxious people, get i just smiled. my food choices, while being healthy and exotic, turned out to be things i will never choose again. yet i really didn’t mind becuase it is just food afterall. my latenight adventure to the 24 hour gym turned out to be a disaster as this gym is no longer 24 hours (even though i check the website first) AND they turned the lights out on me in the middle of my workout. A crazed and possibly crazy man started yelling at the gym staff and then started to yell at me because i wasn’t complaining with him.

Still I smiled and made it back to my little apartment in the sky. At least being at home lessens the chances of these unexpected moments of chaos, right?

but wait, there’s more.

At about 2:30am, whlie explaining to Sarah how much I love people - even the crazy ones - we hear a LOUD pounding on our door. This has never happened before. It’s one of our lovely 20-something neighbors completely wasted and under the impression that she lives with us. We waited for a few minutes and realized that she was not going to stop trying to get in. Sarah bravely opened the door and offered to help out. Turns out it was her birthday. She was completely sweet and we walked her up the two additional stories that she undershot.

Today is a new day, and while I would like to make another attempt for adventure, I think I will instead focus on getting organized for another busy and exciting week....and hey, if adventure happens, so be it!
