The Great Race
Apr. 2nd, 2006 11:24 amWell, the race wasn't so bad. Bib #253... Iunno, got something under 40 mins anyway. Averaged a less-than-10-minute-mile pace yay me! :D
Unfortunately, I forgot about daylight savings and was nearly late. This resulted in me not having enough time to drop by Katie's house and drop my sweats, so I had to leave them in like. the middle of NOWHERE. (on a bench in the middle of downtown Saratoga) T.T and afterwards I ought've gone back immediately, but, fool that I am, I did not. I'd feel kind of bad if I ditched Lisa... and the others... yeah she insisted on finding Charity Ashley and Sarah first. yeah I'm stupid.
So, it wasn't there when I got back. And oooh crap my cellphone was in the pocket, inside yes, wrapped up in a t-shirt but inside nonetheless. how depressing! I just got it, too~ but I called the race manager guy and he promised to check with all the clean up captains for me.
He was funny. he told me how he lost his cellphone yesterday and he kept calling it and no one picked up and he got it back today and and volunteer people: "... oh it kept ringing, but we thought we probably shouldn't pick up..." and he: "... wtf you're SUPPOSED to pick up..." but it's true, if you found a phone and you are an honest person who does not plot to steal it, if it kept ringing most people would leave it alone. =.= the irony.
/shrug I had my name on the t-shirt that was inside the sweatshirt pocket. So unless someone stole everything for earnest, I will hopefully get it back.
I feel like I should be feeling more guilty. or... SOMETHING. but... I've lived without a cellphone for so long, I almost feel indifferent... >>;; ehehe.
