my bike got stolen

it was cold cycling to the gym today. cold and windy. california time is 8 hours behind london. today you would think it was 8 hours and 6 months. it genuinely looks and feels like a winters day here in london, and yet we are in the month of june. how lame is this place?.

.....and then to top it all off....the cherry on top of the cake.....my bike got stolen from outside my gym. i have 3 locks on it and it is tied around a lamp post and some shithead must have had some industrial bolt cutters or something, because when i came out after my work out, my bike was gone.

to whoever stole it, can i just say i hope you fall under a bus ....and then a big truck....but you still survive, but then one of those little g-wiz electric cars runs over you and finishes you off.

so i ended up getting a train home from the gym. i live a 22 minute bike ride from my gym(if i had a bike). its about 4 miles and about 5 stops on the tube. i went to buy a single, one way ticket home and it was £4 (nearly $7). 5 stops on the subway, on a weekend at off-peak hours is £4. are you fucking serious!!!???. christ almighty, i thought to myself, i have already been robbed once today, and now i am getting robbed again!. to put it in perspective, when i am in new jersey, i buy an offpeak return ticket to new york and its $11. the train journey is 45 minutes and its around 20 miles each way. 11 bucks seems fair and thats a return ticket. nearly 7 bucks to go 5 stops on the subway. what a joke!.

i think i might watch taxi driver tonight. i don't like this city today. the forecast is for rain tomorrow. am hoping its a heavy rain that will wash all the filth and scum off the streets.
