panic attacks me

::panics::

Toronto public transit workes are on stirke since Monday.

Wah!!! What am I going to do? I need it to go work (half an hour), to college (fifteen mitutes from work) and then home (forty five minutes in the subway)

Is it the Fate’s way of telling me to exercise more and use a bicycle to go everywhere?

I lived through the awful transit strike in Vancouver, and I don’t want to do it again. Especially since most time of that strike we had a car, and then that old Ford Tempo died and we were left with his useless dead body and the necessity to buy another car immediately. Poor old Tempo! We bought it for 700 dollars, and I don’t regret those money spent at all. Standard transmission, too many quirks and something really bad with the electricity system… good memories

Anyway. I hate transit strikes. Hate.

We’ll speak of it no more.

Onto the book meme:

Total number of books in your house: twelve boxes (big book boxes from Chapters) and number of scattered around books.

2. Last book you read: I am finishing American Gods, by Neil Gaiman..

3. What was the last book you read before that? The last books I finished prior to it was In the forests of Serre, but I read several books along that I haven’t finished yet.

4. Write down five books you often read or that mean a lot to you:
1. Alice in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll
2. The Selected Poems by Marina Tsvetaeva
3. Evgeny Onegin by Aleksandr Pushkin
4. European Middle Ages by Jacques Le Goff
5. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy – I also love listening to the radio show. Over and over again.

there are much more, but I suck at remembering which are more deserving, so I’ll leave you with those that came to my mind.
