I’m riding the bus home as usual, backpack on my lap. This older guy stumbles into the bus and sits down next to me. The bus begins moving and for some reason he decides to get up. As he’s getting up the bus lurches a little more forward and he takes a giant step past me, but not before catching the side of my backpack with his leg. The sheer force of him pushing against my backpack laterally tore part of the straps at the top seam. It may not seem like a massive tear in the photo but it’s at a critical point that holds a lot of stress. I tugged on it a little and it’s clearly weakened to the point that sewing it back wouldn’t give the same strength. Ugh! I was going to use this pack in England too!

So now I’m off to Sports Basement to try to find a replacement. I could use a little bigger one anyways.

I had a relatively small car before. It was a 2-door coupe. An RSX to be exact. 172.2 inches in length of happy driving experience. And yet, for the life of me, I couldn’t find a parking spot in San Francisco. I mean, c’mon, it’s a small car! Almost all of my friends drive decently-sized sedans and whatnot, so I felt I was definitely on the more petite side of things. But in SF, even a car as small as the RSX is overbearingly huge compared to those tiny little spaces between driveways. (Which, if you go over, can cost you a $75 ticket or a tow-away or both.)

However …

I think I can live with this. At only 145.6 inches, 26.6 inches shorter, the MINI easily fits almost anywhere, and I’m very surprised when it doesn’t. I’m 12.5″ smaller than the Kia Rio, 11.8″ than the Honda Fit, 9.7″ than the Scion xB, 4.4″ than the Toyota Yaris. Granted, the MINI is pretty wide at 75.8″, but still it’s the length of the car that counts.

I love it love it love it.
