Today, I was brutally ripped out of my sleep by the most dreadful racket emanating from the enormous construction site in our street. When I ventured outside on my bike, I was forced to make a big detour because the road was blocked. Then, on switching to the public transport, we had to wait for about fifteen minutes because - you guessed it - the road was blocked further ahead. Finally, for the last lap, I ascended the bus, looking forward to a hitch-free ride.
Due to another road blockage, the bus had to change its route and spill us out onto the nearest tram...after which I finally arrived at uni with the minimum of patience and the maximum of wrath.
And since the autumn fair stalls were being taken down and loaded into vans, thus clogging up the footpaths, we had to walk in the middle of the road with annoyed cyclists swerving and swooping around us.
