Internet being poop today :(

March 22nd, 2010 at 06:43 pm

I work on the internet-- mostly through social networking sites, and my internet has been running like crap. Consequently, most of the work I did today is for naught. So frustrating!

In other news, I published a couple more articles today... so things are moving along nicely.

In other news, I was getting frustrated about this army training next month due to transportation, and having to pay everything out of pocket to begin with (I would be reimbursed, but still). BF mentioned a really awesome option: buying a bike while I'm out there to use for transportation. Not only would it be far less expensive than renting a car for a month, but I'm thinking the army may pay for it. Mind you, I mean a bicycle, not motorcycle. lol.

I love riding. A lot. And the idea of getting to ride around on bike trails in AZ and use it as my main form of transportation is really exciting. Hell, I'll ship it back to Ohio in the end... I've wanted a new one anyway Smile

So that's certainly an exciting prospect.

Going to the rec after work on campus today. Going to swim some laps... I really need to get in shape. Then class. Joy of joys, so much to do til the end of the semester!

Speaking of which, I better get back to work Smile Hope everyone has a great night!

    I'd be shocked if the Army would pay for your bike. It's just not a normal expense...even if cheaper than renting a car. Let us know if it pans out though!

    I would too, but if they did that would be great. Guess we'll find out! Regardless, I'll probably get one. It would just be a shame not too... so many great bike trails around there!

    Heck, make inquiries and find out if they'll spring for the bike. My son had a summer job that was set to pay for his air fare both ways. There was a month before he had to be there, so he took a 4 weeks driving tour of the western US on the way to his job. They agreeably paid what airfare would have cost, which was more than he spent driving, camping, and making sandwiches for a month. For them, it was just standard to pay what airfare cost.
