I keep track of the hours I work in my own spread sheet at the office. This is an important way of keeping track of what I'm doing at the office in case of dispute at some point down the road. And dispute happens.

Then it occurred to me that I could track the use of my bike in a similar fashion as a sorof personal-milepost-thing. As of today, I've cycled every day in the past five weeks except for two days. In that time, I've saved $100 in TTC fares (only $700 more and the bike will have paid for itself! Ahaha!) and cycled more than 500 kilometres, if I just count the commute and not the side trips, pleasure jaunts, and errand runs.

I'd see the publicity guy come on the set and I'd go hide in the rafters. The crew would be like, ‘I haven't seen him.' And then they'd leave and I'd go back to work. Because that's what's fun: the doing, not the talking.
