i am a hater of technology today. nothing is working. diaryland is unstable, my email is giong crazy, my computer keeps crashing, the sun is shining. i need to be hiking. but i cant. i cant get to the mountain. what an absurd thought. take the bus you might say. well hoo ha! transit strike still in effect. i am trapped in the city. i could walk the streets and look at all the wonderful (sure) things but i would end up spending money. i want to hike and that is all.
