~Thursday~ This morning’s city bus ride featured Library Man reading not an industry trade magazine, but what I at first thought might be Woman’s Day magazine, but turned out to be the Parade magazine, a Sunday paper insert in these parts. Library Man had some kind of sinus issue going on this morning, which exposed … Read more
~Wednesday~ I rode the Wolfline bus in, and I went in early, so there were very few people on the bus to observe. I took advantage of the opportunity to read the rest of my homework assignment for class tonight. Speaking of class, I had totally forgotten about it (in spite of doing homework for … Read more
~Tuesday~ A couple got on the bus—the gentleman first, followed by the lady. He put his money into the machine, grabbed his printed fare card, and started down the aisle toward a seat. The lady stood in front of the fare machine, turned toward him, and with her hands on her hips hollered, “What? You … Read more
~Monday~ Gerald Sydnor, my plumber, arrived at about 9:20, and he spent a good three-and-a-half hours here replacing: my kitchen sink faucet, my garbage disposal, my master bathroom sink faucet, and my master bathroom shower head. I actually didn’t have the garbage disposal or the shower arm/head, so I ran to Lowe’s to buy them … Read more
~Sunday~ At 9:30, I headed out to Durberville to see Tess. Not really. But, I did head to Durham to attend our 10:00-11:30 Manbites Dog Theater Board of Directors Meeting. It was a very good and productive meeting, one where emotions got a little high, but with everyone’s obvious commitment to the success of the … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up after eight glorious hours of sleep. I was having some very involved dreams, which I was happy to leave behind to dissolve in my mind. I spent a couple of hours going through papers and straightening out things in anticipation of cleaning my house tomorrow afternoon in preparation for Casey’s arrival … Read more
~Friday~ I was back on the city bus and back at 8:15. I took a seat across and one row back from Sci-Fi Fantasy Man, who was wearing a very nice London Fog charcoal-colored trench coat and heads down in a book. His books are usually small and thin. This one was larger and thicker … Read more
~Thursday~ Because there was ice on my windshield this morning, I did something I can’t ever remember doing—I started my car to run while I poured my coffee into my thermos and gathered my things up to leave. As I returned to my living room, which faces the parking area, I could hear my car … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was up early again this morning, and caught the Wolfline (#9 Greek Village) bus in to work. This was probably the last bus students could catch to get to an 8:00 class, and before it was all said and done, there were people standing in the aisle, but it wasn’t butts-to-nuts. 8:00 classes … Read more
~Tuesday~ I caught the 6:45 bus this morning and part of the trip was déjà vu and the other part brand spanking new. I’m a poet and don’t know it. I can make a rhyme any old time. The part that was déjà vu was the two people who got off the bus just as … Read more
