There I was, in the brand new bike lane at Lincoln Park, and there was the UPS truck, parked smack in the middle of my brand new bike lane at Lincoln Park. Curse curse, grumble grumble, gtfo of my lane, HOLY CRAP MY CONTACT.
So my contact fell out while I was riding my bike in traffic. Luckily I grabbed it right as it was falling out of my eye, and just held onto it as I made the next two blocks so I could pull over and try to manage the situation. I was two blocks from work, and had about 5 minutes to spare before I needed to be there so I was in no major rush but as I was attempting to stick my contact back in my eye, I was going through the plethora of terrible things that happen if I drop my contact on the ground. My mobile contact solution that I used to carry in my bag is now stationary, not to mention, if I drop my contact, there's no way in hell I can find it on the asphalt in the dusk with just one functional eye.
None of those terrible things happened! I got my contact back in my eye. WOO. High fives all around.
That whole shenanigan is a thing that has Never Happened To Me Before. I wish for it to Never Happen Again.
I feel like my New Things are kind of lame. I am pretty sure there will be one Really Awesome New Thing before the end of the month, seeing as how it is only the 12th and we are actually going all the way to the 8th of December?? So, that's good.
Heat and shower are both back in business. We got a new furnace and a new diverter. Yay!
