2 Weeks Off

So it turns out that I'm not going to be working for the next two weeks. There was a complication in the company that I work for, and it came to the point where either me or my coworker had to take time off. Well technically, my coworker was the one who drew the short straw, but he really needed the hours more than I did. So he's pretty much taking over my shifts for the next 14 days.

I guess I have mixed feelings about this whole situation. Well, it's nice to have some time off, especially with Thanksgiving coming up next week. Not only that, but I should really be focusing on school right now (finals are just right around the corner!). Oh, and I also have a photo assignment due in two weeks and I haven't even started on it yet. Well with work out of the picture for two weeks, I'm going to have a lot more time to focus on the things that I should really be considering as top priority right now.

But with two weeks off, it's going to hit me financially. I currently have enough in the bank to get by, and two weeks won't hurt me too much. But at the same time, having an extra $400 in the course of two weeks would be nice. Like all things in life, there is a fair balance of good and bad. I guess I'll just have to tough it out for the next two weeks and go into hobo mode. Haha, maybe it wasn't such a good idea buying cranks at a time like this... =/

Saturday's Photo Dump

Here are a few pics from Saturday. Met up with Wilson at the Caltrain station, rode around Embarcadero, took some pics by Ghirardelli square, rode through the Marina, through the Presidio, took some pics by the Golden Gate Bridge, up Arguello, ate at a sushi boat place on Clement, met up with Tim, check out his new S-Works, rode through Richmond, through Golden Gate Park, up 7th ave, up Laguna Honda, took some pics, went our separate ways, and I went home. Yep, fun Saturday. Then I took a bunch of random pics on Sunday. Hmm, haven't taken any pics in a while. So the weekend was quite fun. Okay, time to unload.

Tourist for the day

I'm sitting in my living room waiting for a buddy of mine to give me a call so we can ride around the city. I have to take a few pics for my photography assignment coming up, and I thought that shooting at a few "cliche" tourist spots would work out with what I'm aiming for. Hmm, haven't rode around SF for a while, so this will be fun. I guess we'll be planning to hit up Twin Peaks, GG Bridge, The Pier, Marina, various places downtown, maybe Japantown, Ocean Beach, and Cliffhouse. I'm hoping to get a good amount of miles in today, since I haven't been riding lately. But yeah, today shall be quite fun. Picture update to come!

I think I just creamed my pants.
