Ooooooh! I bunged up my right leg! No nice, overly long, 5 hour walk for me today! Sigh! I shall be a caged monkey, forced to stay indoors, with the heater and food and anime, on a cold, cold day! How cruel!!!
It tells you how addicted I am to walking that I'd really rather just go for a walk, no jokes or sarcasm, bugger the rest!
I like being active! That is the only, only, only, big plus to being woefully unemployed, is that I do so have time to go out and about and appreciate the world! (Someone has to do it! I should get paid...)
But I do get to:-
see the other unemployed people and wave hello - we have a passing acquaintance;
marvel at the prices Checkers expects me to pay for oranges, oh hell no;
check the mail - sometimes there's interesting stuff, my divorce papers perhaps;
walk through waves of school kids - except on school holidays, gods bless them so;
step on acorns and egg shells and listen to that very satisfying CCCCCCCRUNCH under my shoe;
avoid the eyes of perverts - occasionally the hands as well;
wave at kids in buses;
bark back at dogs - most ignore me but some are rather taken aback;
buy bananas - oh bananas
and walk back home again, feeling my steps getting lighter and lighter as home gets closer and closer! (Esp. if someone's home!)
Okay that's just really really made me want to walk now. *Gets up, hobbles a bit, grimaces a lot, sits back down*
Okay, so who wants to chat on gtalk while I surf the net for employment? Suddenly that seems so very much more fun!!!
*stifles small sob*
