A mountain of paperwork, user task improvement by Google, and a long night of dancing…

~Saturday~  I was up at 9:30 this morning, after a wonderful eight hours of sleep. Oh glorious weekend. I spent a good portion of the day going through mountains of paperwork in preparation for two things: 1) submitting my North Carolina Health Care Flexible Spending Account (NCHCFSA) form, which has to be in by March … Read more

A fallen wall, a bus driver with a short little span of attention, a new morale low, & a workout…

~Friday~  As I walked down the short paved entrance into my townhouse area, I looked long and hard at this retaining wall to see if it had: 1) naturally eroded, 2) been vandalized, or 3) been hit by a vehicle. But in the end, I couldn’t draw any definite conclusion. Can you? I was at … Read more

Bus slippers, building appreciation, tax diversification & retail therapy, and my drag king friend!

~Thursday~  I checked my work e-mail on my phone while still in my bed. I had a request from my boss’s boss for a copy of some notes from a meeting last week that he wanted to look through before a 10:45 meeting of ours today. I caught the Wolfline #9a GV Tripper to DH … Read more

A well-rounded derriere, a foiled planning meeting, a red-eye photo, dinner w/Andrew, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I parked at the Avent Ferry Food Lion Park & Ride @ 7:30 and caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus. The young man who boarded in front of me sported a high-and-tight and wore a yellow T-shirt that highlighted his biceps, outlined his pecs, and showed only a little bit of paunch—presumably obtained … Read more

Laptop lunch bag, gone wild sorority girls, a selective trash reprimand, and a finished book…

~Monday~  I left my house with my laptop bag so stuffed I couldn’t zip it up. It was mostly filled with food. I caught the Wolfline #9 GV Tripper to DH Hill. At the Gorman and Conifer stop, several people ran to the bus, including Logorrhea, who’s loud enough on the city bus, but on … Read more

A compelling PostSecret, hot coffee and a hot daddy, a workout, and some scareyoke…

~Sunday~  I slept in this morning, and started my day off with a look at this week’s PostScrets. I found this one to be the most compelling of this week’s collection: I spent a good portion of the afternoon at Cup a Joe Mission Valley, where I spent a good portion of the time there … Read more

A board meeting, a chicken sausage sandwich, Ben joins the club, tea leaves read, & cocktails had…

~Saturday~  I was in Durham by 10:30 for our March Manbites Dog Theater Board of Directors meeting, which went well, and finished a little early, as Jeff had to leave early for a tech rehearsal of an upcoming show at Duke. Robert joined me afterwards, in the beautiful weather, and we ate at King’s Sandwich … Read more

A corn dog cultural artifact, early gender role assignment, birth of a word, and a $9 cocktail…

~Friday~  I caught the 8:58 #11 Avent Ferry city bus to Carmichael Gym on campus, where I transferred to the Wolfline #7 Wolflink Shuttle to get to the Butler Communications Building, where I had a 9:30-10:45 meeting. When I boarded the city bus, two girls sitting across from me were mid-conversation, in which the one … Read more

No-televersary, buscapades, insurancecapades, and St. Paddy’s @ Trailer Park Prize Night…

~Thursday~  I was at the city bus stop at 8:18, and when 8:22 came and went, I thought I might have missed this one, but it eventually came at 8:27. In the meantime, Exercising Asian Man ran (literally) up to the stop, precariously rested his book bag on top of a telephone company indicator pole: … Read more
