Getting out of jail time off, x-ray results, petty petticoats, Scrabble fun, & holiday cards…

~Monday~  Wrong Way Willie was driving this morning, but he took the correct route today. I suppose he may never live down the fact that he took a wrong turn one day. I certainly can’t see myself dropping it. I’m going to go ahead and rename a character here, and I’ll mention both of her … Read more

Buscapades and digitally-captured dialog all the day long…

~Tuesday~  While I waited for the bus this morning, a college student walked by walking his dachshund, which had the most interesting coloring. It looked like this little guy, except all gray and black even on the paws. What made it even more interesting to me, and made me audibly chuckle actually, was that the … Read more

A plethora of buscapades, a quartet of affirmations, and a smörgåsbord of religions to chose from…

~Monday~  The bus driver this morning was Wrong Way Willie—I just now named him although he earned his name two weeks ago. Madonna and Genetically-Beautiful Daughter got off at the stop after I got on, and Sophia’s hair was not tied up, which always makes her look precociously old, reminding me of Donna Summer’s hair … Read more

Buscapades, manhole issues, a prodigal umbrella, a 21% profit, & Caleb Calypso@Manbites…

~Friday~  Though the rain was supposed to stop today and it was only slightly drizzling, I schlepped that big-assed golf umbrella to the bus stop again. Madonna & Genetically-Beautiful Daughter were getting ready to get off at the next stop, and little Sophia was holding a book that I so wanted to see the title … Read more

The strangest buscapades to date, and Salon V…

~Monday~  Excitement on the bus this morning, although it started out like any other day: Madonna and Genetically-Beautiful Daughter got off at the stop after mine (with Sophia’s beautiful hair tied in a long braid that hung down the middle of her back), Sci-Fi Fantasy Man read, and as far as I saw when I … Read more

Bus-riding rule-breakers, bus cards don’t open doors for you, and Coco Before Chanel…

~Friday~  This is the first time I’ve seen the bus do this, as I’m pretty sure it’s “against the rules”: There was a family—father, mother, and child—waving at the bus right smack dab in the middle of two stops, and it stopped and picked them up. Li’l Dino boarded this morning and sat up front … Read more

Swine flu vomit, odds & ends, and dancing…

~Wednesday~ Back to the long bus today, and accompanied by Diarrhea-of-the-Mouth who not only talks incessantly, but loud, as I’m sure I’ve characterized her before. Here’s a part of her vomit stream today, and yes, I know that all caps is annoying and implies screaming, which is exactly why I’m employ it as a rhetorical … Read more

Losers at the credit bureau, meetings with food, and off the grid early…

~Tuesday~ Thong Lady was on the bus—sans thong, or I suppose it would be more accurate to say—thong not visible. She was reading an Agatha Christie mystery, which made me feel connected to her in some small way, considering my recent delve into three Mary Higgins Clark mystery novels. Right-Hand Rule Lady was present along … Read more

A buscapade, on Sen. Ted Kennedy, an affirmation, some thank yous, & Pimps & ‘HOs…

~Friday~ Diarrhea-of-the-Mouth lady was back this morning and once again living up to her name. Loud, liquid, flow. Folded Red-Tipped White Caner (FR-TWC) guy got on this morning, who I’ve talked about a few times now. In earlier buscapades, this is the guy who the bus driver waved the fare ticket at him that he’d left … Read more

A buscapade, an off-my-game presentation, an affirmation love-fest, a soirée and TPPN…

~Thursday~  I forgot to mention yesterday, that on the way home, on that 8:15 bus, the Waffle House Lady was on her way to work. I always see her in the morning on the way home from work. She looks happier in the morning going home. I’m just saying… Just now-christened Diarrhea-of-the-Mouth was on board … Read more
