A not hot ear cigarette, a memorable bug, Laziz Biryani Corner, and a weepy Glee episode…

~Tuesday~  I drove to the Wolfline #9 Greek Village stop at Avent Ferry and Gorman, where I had a very short wait for the bus. At the next stop, the one with the infamous sign that’s now correct, a man was handing a pamphlet to an Asian girl who was waiting for the bus.  I … Read more

Burning flesh, unsolicited survey feedback, born the Glee way, and my name written all over it…

~Sunday~  I slept in and had a pretty lazy day. I peeled the bread off my lunch sandwich that I made at work yesterday, but didn’t eat, and which had become soggy, and I stuck it in my toaster oven on broil to “stiffen” it back up some. When I reached in the oven to … Read more

Hey baby on the bus, not sitting well, photo-in-a-photo, the back of the bus, & that’s not lasagna..

~Wednesday~  I was at the city bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:30. There were three kids in the back of the bus, two of whom talked loudly non-stop, while the other one, a baby, wailed intermittently. The bus made a stop in front of the new Bristol Creek apartments at the … Read more

Higher math change, sand-of-a-beach, catching up on Glee with Jen & Nala, and a little scareyoke…

~Sunday~  I woke up at just before 10:00 and immediately called the front desk asking for a late checkout, which they granted until 1:00. We were actually out of there by about 11:30, and we stopped at Dunkin’ Donuts, where I ordered a bagel with cream cheese, and a small coffee, which came to $3.65. … Read more

Bad bus breath, tinny Eminem & Rihanna, lost in the library, and catching up on Glee…

~Thursday~  I drove over to Gorman and Avent Ferry and caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus at 8:03. Someone sitting next to me had the worst breath ever. They couldn’t possibly have brushed their teeth before they left home this morning. “Officer Thomas” stood next to me—an ROTC guy in his camouflage outfit with … Read more

Endearing egg yolks, Diet Squirt, scar-on-scar action, car damage assessment, & Glee…

~Tuesday~  I left my house by car at 8:18 and just missed both the Wolfline #1 and #9 buses. I checked the buses’ GPS via TVS and chose the #9 stop, as it was next to come. As I waited, I realized that I’d forgotten my hard-boiled egg whites this morning to go with my … Read more

A sick day, a redundant or complementary breakfast, YouTube copyright infringements, and dancing…

~Wednesday~  I took a sick day from work today, and started off my morning with a piece of delicious homemade banana bread, which Sarah so graciously gave to me at Salon on Monday. Here’s a picture of, and comment about, it that I put on Facebook: Redundant or Complementary? Sarah asked on Facebook if that … Read more

Coffee klatsche @ CupAJoe, romping around campus for egg nog, a workout, and a night in…

~Friday~  I drove into the office today, using one of those three remaining daily parking permits that are expiring on 12/31/10 to park in the Van Allen Deck. The suite in which my office resides was deserted when I got in, which is odd, because I’m usually one of the last people in. I took … Read more

A piece of War & Peace, enriching a life, a customer service rant, disturbing ENOUGH, & Anna reads

~Thursday~  I caught the university’s #9 Greek Village bus at Avent Ferry & Gorman at 8:30. I did have on long pants and a sweatshirt, but at one point, I thought, “Damn, it’s freezing out here!” I looked at the weather app on my phone, and it sure enough was: 32° At the stop after … Read more
