Stupid Moped

Last night I was riding home from the gym, stopped at a red light, when my moped died. I was sitting there waiting, and it just died. Luckily all the lanes I had to cross to get off the road were also at a red light and I was able to get their attention and push the thing to a parking lot. I was fine, and there was no reason to be that upset, but I was pretty panicky. I think it's because things like that put into high relief that I'm pretty alone here still.

I ended up having to push the damn thing home about a mile and a half. I have a nice big bump and bruise on the back of my leg where the kickstand hit me too! I'm going to take it into the shop after work today. We get off two hours early because it's the day before a holiday, so I get to leave at 1:30. Hopefully the moped is just out of gas and the fuel light/guage doesn't work and it's a quick fix. The store gave me a warranty for the entire time I'm here, so I shouldn't have to put out more money after only having the moped for a week and a half.

So Jess, Mom, Sarah, anyone who wants pictures of me riding, you'll just have to wait a little longer =)
