Why I hate working in Seattle
Today we received a notice that are parking price in the downstairs garage is going up again. They jacked the price up to over $200/mo.
While I enjoy the luxury of being able to park AT work.. I’m not going to let them continue raping my wallet… that’s for boys that are much much much prettier. To top it off I never get a parking spot as it is. They over book and the valet has to move my car around all day since there are no open spots. I guess I assumed when I purchased a spot, I’d actually HAVE a spot when I got here.
So I ordered an electric bicycle and am going to begin biking it to work. Which will be awesome after all the bitching I’ve done over the last year about bicyclists.
I went with this tricycle, I’m thinking of painting it pink and putting hello kitties all over it… maybe a white plastic basket with one of those overly fake white flowers stuck to it… oh and don’t forget the streamers off the handles..woot woot! I’ll make sure to wear my best leather biking gear to top off the look.
I know I could have just hit the local bike shop and probably have been okay with a standard bike, but let’s face it…I’m fat and need help up hills :P
It should be here next Wednesday.
How cool! You’ll have to tell us how it works for ya. I’ve been considering biking to work…but it’s a few miles straight down hwy 100…so it’d be pretty wild.

How many days are you going to be able to ride it with all the rain up there?
