~Thursday~ I’m probably about the only person I know who would notice this, much less complain about it, but here it goes: I don’t like how the first game says, “You lost…” but the second game says, “You win!” It should either be: “You lost!” and “You won!” or “You lose!” and “You win!” [or … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was ready for work with a lot of time before the next either city or university bus would arrive, so I decided to take a chance and drive to work. But when I got to the few spots relatively near my work that don’t have a two-hour limit to them, they were all … Read more
~Wednesday~ I drove into work this morning and parked in some 2-hour curbside parking near my office. I parked at 8:40 and promptly set my phone alarm clock to 10:30 to get out there and move it by 10:40. I happened to look at the time at 10:44 and found my alarm set to 10:30 … Read more
~Wednesday~ After shaving this morning, I made a note to check my Google calendar to see when I last put a new blade in my razor. Yes, I do track that on my Google calendar, along with other things, such as when I rotated my tires. Because I know you care, I last changed my … Read more
~Monday~ I parked up on Gorman near Avent Ferry and caught the #9 GV Tripper to DH Hill this morning. I ended up being “bookended” by two little hotties, one of whom looked a little like my friend Will. An Asian couple boarded and took seats opposite the aisle from each other instead of side-by-side … Read more
~Monday~ The 8:15 city bus arrived at 8:26. Who’s keeping track? I had just dialed the CAT line and had been instructed to “Press 1 to continue in English,” when screaming sirens came up so fast and so close that I couldn’t hear anything on the other end of the line, so I hung up. … Read more
~Thursday~ Stagnant Driver drove up and I boarded her mobile jalapeño. Temporary Alice was on board again, and I wondered if she’s switched to some kind of overnight shift somewhere. And if she has, I wonder if she’s still a temporary employee. ‘Cause if she’s not, I should probably change her name to Overnight Alice. … Read more
~Tuesday~ Hooray for today, as the university fall Wolfline schedule went into effect, which means four times more buses running about three times more often than over the summer. With that said, I didn’t take a Wolfline bus into work this morning. I was rushed, however, to get to the city bus stop by 8:15, … Read more
~Wednesday~ You’ve heard of the fork in the road, but how about the: I stepped over that walking to my bus stop this morning. That driver was back, but mercifully, she actually had on the air-conditioning. The Kanki Guy (officially named now) got on at the McDonald’s stop at Western/Gorman, and I’ve officially deemed that … Read more
~Tuesday~ This morning’s 8:15 city bus was sufficiently air-conditioned. A man sat in the front, right, center-facing seat holding up a little piece of paper with an address of 900 Gorman Street on it, and both the lady in the seat behind me and the seat across from me were engaged in helping him determine … Read more
