I got a new tube for my road bike last night

I've been putting it off for a while because I had my mountain bike to use and I didn't want to spend the money. But I finally went for it last night. Great right!? Now I can zip around at breakneck speeds once again. Well... maybe not. Maybe God has something against me biking. See I got up this morning and gathered my stuff and rushed off to class. I wasn't even out of my driveway before I realized that my mountain bike (which was perfectly fine last night) had gone south :( .
So, since I hadn't put the new tube on my road bike yet, I had to drive. (kinda nice cause it was all drizzly) But after dinner I put on the new tube (which holds air 50% better!) and started heading in to campus. It may hold air 50% better but it's like 200% shorter and I was walking my bike by within five minutes of leaving. I was already more than half way to campus so I just walked there and locked up my bike. After I was done though, I couldn't just leave my bike to be vandalized so I had to run it all the way back to green gables. Ended up missing the first half of prayer :( .
Agggghhhhh That's two paragraphs ending in frownies. I really did have a good day. (well aside from leaving my jacket on the bus) I got a huge homework assignment done, AND I got all practiced up for my approach control simulator exam, and I got attendance points for a totally pointless English conference, and now I get to hang out and study for my ATP test. :)
