Tempting fate

deathpixieI knew I should have gotten myself a new inner tube for the bike when that last one went kablooey. Only I kept forgetting, and this morning my luck finally ran out - half way down Royal Parade I have a most emphatic flat, and the only option is to walk the bike home, get changed, and catch the tram in, thus making myself forty minutes late. :P I did call in, so it wasn't terrible, and it just means I'll have to stay longer tonight and/or work through lunch. I am going to nick down to City Cycles at some stage to get that tube I've been neglecting (two, I think, just to make sure) and indulge in a bit of repair after training tonight. I have to, otherwise I'm not going to be riding again tomorrow.
Of course, it does mean I'm behind in all things, including checking my mail and stuff. Yes, I know I'm here to work, it just takes me a bit of a run-up, is all. And I have no doubt the pile of applications on my desk will be gone by this afternoon - I'm that good. *buffs nails on shirt*
Oh, and if Oznur doesn't turn down her love song pap from the Eighties CD, I'm going to strangle her and leave her body for the cleaners.
