jedusor: (write and i understand)
Today was day one of [livejournal.com profile] sweaty_nano! I posted about it, complete with an excerpt of the day's writing, here. I exceeded my goal by almost a thousand words, which makes me happy.

What does not make me happy is the service Kat and I got at the Barnes & Noble cafe. I know, it's Starbucks, which ought to tell me something, but still. After I'd paid for my soy latte, they discovered they were out of soy milk. So I got a cranberry juice instead, which cost about half the price of the latte, and it took them 10-15 minutes to get together the authority to give me my money back (?!). I asked if there was an electrical outlet Kat and I could use for our laptops, and the guy behind the counter pointed me to one just outside the cafe. We plugged in and had been typing away quietly for about half an hour when a manager came up to us and told us that we were doing THREE things wrong: sitting on the floor, though we weren't in anyone's way or blocking any books; using the outlet, which apparently is for store use only, even when they aren't actually using it; and drinking outside the cafe, which we were only feet away from.

So we went to the library instead, which was much more pleasant, but the change in plans resulted in someone from the KC NaNo group showing up to B&N and not finding us where we'd said we would be. Sigh.

But aside from that, the day went well. I also joined Mom's yoga class this morning. That yoga business is no joke! O.o

Today on the Plaza I spotted a vehicle that appeared to be, for lack of a better term, a stretch motorcycle. There were somewhere between five and ten people sitting on it in a line. The back had two wheels; I'm not sure about the front, but I think it only had one. Apart from the two wheels in the back and the unusual length, it looked exactly like a motorcycle.

Does anyone know what this thing is? Mom suggested renting one for my sixteenth birthday, an idea of which I heartily approve, but I can't find it on Google. Help?
