~Monday~ I had another big ol’ bowl of All-Bran Bran Buds cereal for breakfast and brushed my teeth right after eating it, which was gross. Nothing worse than a fiber-toothed tiger. Packing my lunch to bring into the office, I couldn’t find my pill box. Not my pillbox hat; I know where that is—right there … Read more
~Tuesday~ I parked at the Avent Ferry Park & Ride in anticipation of heading downtown after work for the End-of-the-Semester SIGDOC gathering at Flying Saucer. There was only a handful of folks on the bus, and several of the kids on it were studying en route. It is exam week after all. In an unusual … Read more
~Thursday~ I so wanted to stay in bed this morning, but I made myself get up instead of hitting the snooze a number of times. I got back to my routine of making a thermos full of coffee and both a breakfast and lunch sandwich to take to work with me. The weather was moist, … Read more
~Tuesday~ I was dragging ass this morning, and it took everything I had in me not to call in sick for the day. I put off getting out of bed so long that I didn’t have time to make breakfast, lunch, or even coffee to take to with me to work. I parked on Gorman, … Read more

~Tuesday~ I parked on Gorman, and as I was parking, the #9 Greek Village bus was pulling away. I literally ran down to and across Avent Ferry Road and onto the #1 Avent Ferry bus. There was no air circulating on the bus, and needless to say I immediately started slightly perspiring after running like … Read more
~Thursday~ I was at the city bus stop at 8:17 and the bus arrived at 8:21. A minute ahead of schedule if you buy 8:22 as the mode. A little mixed race boy sat with his very white mother, who had shocking red hair, played with some sort of gadget that spoke in one of … Read more
~Wednesday~ I caught the 8:45 bus in instead of the 8:15, as the university was on a weather delay opening at 10:00. It’s the day after the “big ice storm” that brought everything to a standstill around here, and it was cold while I waited for the bus, about which warnings had been posted on … Read more
