Today at work, Crazy and Hostile faced off against each other again. IT was started by one of them returning something to the other but dropping it just short of the table. The one at the table told the first to pick it up, that offer was refused, the other began to walk away and ran her shoulder into the other’s shoulder. Then came the yelling, which was the real fun part. Didn’t last too long before Crazy marched off to talk to Jeff in her angry-boyish walk.

Jeff tried to calm her down while Joe tried to calm down Hostile. This went on for about forty minutes or so. Once Crazy crushed her safety glasses in her hands, however, Jeff sent her home to cool off.

Ridiculous.

Otherwise… it was a ho-hum day. I finally got a nap but not much else done.

So one of my neighbours has been using my bike cable. He’s been running his chain lock through the open end where I attach my U-lock. this means I can’t run the cable through my front wheel before locking it up, which is less safe but oh well. Mostly it’s just annoying since it makes it much more difficult to get my bike in and out.

A concern I had was what would happen if I locked up my bike and then this guy locked his bike to my lock? That would mean I couldn’t get the cable out from through my wheel and I’d be stuck.

Tonight I was going out for groceries and it happened. I had to canvas my neighbours door-to-door to find whose it was. Turns out it belongs to one of the guys next door. The guys who used to bounce a basketball at all hours. Except now they’re not there and it’s full of Asian guys. Anyway, the bike belongs to a nice guy who just moved here from Tokyo so I said it was fine if he kept using the cable I’d just avoid running it through my front wheel.

Yeah, I’m a pushover.

just to get you to bite
