So it is about 4:40 in the a.m. and I'm trying to get out of cruise control so I can make it to north Scottsdale to work on time (by 7). I teach cpr and other classes for the red cross. And to start the morning off I have to drive to a storage unit where we pick all of our gear up (manikins, books, t.v., etc...). It was about five by the time I Left the apartment and headed for the storage unit. well come to find out the storage unit gate is shut down until 6 am. so i sit in my car and wait while listening to my favorite radio show. Well Finally 6 rolls around and I gather my stuff up as quickly as possible so I can get stuck in the morning gridlock on the 101 N. O.K. so now its6:30 and I am trying to find this company (Centex Homes).... (there is one problem, I ran out of computer paper the night before and forgot to bring the post it note that I wrote the map quest directions on) So as stubborn as I am I will not call for directions unless I am desperate. Well after 20 minutes of driving around I called my coworker who was meeting me there and come to find out I am about 10 miles off target.
So I show up fashionably late and hurry up and bring three full bags of manikins up two flights of stairs. my coworker and I are putting together all the manikins when I check My watch and class was supposed to start. So I am wondering where the heck all these people are!!! I send my coworker to investigate and he finds out that the class had cancelled. haha so we take apart all the manikins and I lug it all back to my car.
When I got home I decided to hit the road on the new trek bike my bro gave me. Well I gear up and head outside to start my ride. The ride was good until the last mile or so. Well I thought I had mastered the "clip in take off" and found out quickly that I am a rookie. I Pull up to a Red light and unclip the right foot. well for what ever reason I start to tip to the left in which my left foot is still clipped in. I totally lose my balance and proceed to get into a wrestling match with trek! All the while The lady in a brown mini van is watching the battle unfold next to her... I felt really dumb...just dumb!! So after I TAKE OFF FINALLY there is about a mile back home and I start to sprint on the bike... when something does not feel right I look down and see a flat on the front tire! I am ROOKIE I don't know how to change a flat. so I decided to save the frustration and I picked trek up and carried her home. I will repair the flat before this weekend. But for now its just strictly spin classes at the gym.
