smug. just, smug.

miles: 1.6

i live about 0.8 miles from the local super market so i often ride my bike there. the hardest part about the whole trip is getting the bike out of the front doors, which close automatically, and there are some tight corners. today i left later than i normally do, or it's just getting noticeably darker earlier, and it's a bit rainy so i brought my blinky light. well, at the first light i came to a woman rolled up next to me congratulating me on having such a bright light... by this point i was beginning to feel like a responsible adult and replied that it was "common sense". a few more words about how good it was that ride to the store instead of driving such a short distance and she was off. honestly, sometimes i make my self sick with smugness. strangers don't help that at all.

at the store, as is normal routine, i ran into some friends' parents. after some light chatting, as i am known to do,  i was off to collect my food for the evening. yes, i forgot to get a Brita water filter again. i loaded up my pannier and headed home.


 my 1.6 mile ride is short but it's still time in the saddle. it goes by quick but i enjoy it while it lasts.
