~Wednesday~  I just made it to the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, such that I crossed the street and walked right on it. At the last minute yesterday, my colleague and peer manager to mine, Sarah, asked me to fill in as the back-up presenter for this morning’s student orientation. I got there a little … Read more

Buscapades, day-old bagels, post office box roulette, a haircut, and visualizing a workout…

~Monday~  I caught the 8:15 city bus, and there were only two people already on when I boarded. At the next stop, a sync stop, the bus driver actually got out of the bus holding his pointer and middle finger up saying, “Two minutes folks,” as he departed. He played on his smart phone for … Read more

~Sunday~  Here are two things I wanted to capture last night, but forgot to—both having to do with songs I heard on Foxy 107/104 on the way downtown to Courtney’s gig at Hibernian: The first was this song with the most inane lyrics by a guy with a deep—trying to be sexy—voice à la Barry … Read more

A LOL workout, a graph about how I roll with voicemail, and a “meh” night out…

~Saturday~  I stayed close to home, well at home to be exact, until about 5:30 at which time my stomach felt settled enough to venture to the gym. I did cardio work, with 60 minutes on the elliptical machine for a 1070-calorie burn, during which I listened to the Recordings for Someone podcast episode of … Read more

~Friday~  In a repeat performance of Wednesday, Jen picked me up to ride into work together, as I was once again her back-up presenter / assistant at this morning’s Information Technology presentation to the students at New Student Orientation (NSO). And once again, we stopped in the office before walking over to the Cinema in … Read more

Panera’s choice, a potential publishing publication, Outer Banks bound, & NCGLFF choices…

~Thursday~  I drove over to the Avent Ferry post office to mail two items—one birthday card and one thank-you card—before heading to work this morning. At the corner of Kaplan and Gorman, I caught the 8:04 Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, on which there were 7 riders in addition to myself when I boarded. At … Read more

New student orientations, the Google migration continues, butter face, dancing, and Vince dies…

~Wednesday~  Jen was right on time this morning, and we had enough time to stop in the office before walking over to Witherspoon for her 8:45 Information Technology (IT) presentation to the students at New Student Orientation. I actually advanced the slides for her, because the remote they had available didn’t work. I walked back … Read more

Bobbing on the bus, an editing emergency, ice cream sandwich-induced happiness, & Glee guessing…

~Tuesday~  I was running behind schedule this morning, so I drove down the street and parked by the Wolfline #9 Greek Village Kaplan/Gorman stop. I’d scoped out the location of the bus online before leaving the house, so I pretty much arrived just before it did. I love technology when it works and makes life … Read more

NSO Info Fair OIT table staffing, customer response FAIL, a quick workout, and time out with Anna…

~Monday~  It was not overly sunny this morning, but it was hot and there was no breeze. A bird sat perched at the top of the bus stop sign, right in the middle of it like it was placed there rather than having just landed there. I took a picture of it with my cell … Read more
