Body temperature differences, a heart-to-heart work talk, and Jen’s birthday…

~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

A rhetorically brilliant sign, stretching myself as emcee, a close call with convenience, & coffee..

~Monday~  I caught the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus this morning and was pleased to get a seat. A young lady with enough luggage with her that it could have easily taken up the seat next to her—and in fact it later did when the seat became available—sat across from me. At one point, with … Read more

Much ado about a cell phone, sleepy bus drivers, lunch w/Susan, and an annoying dance night…

~Wednesday~  I was up at 6AM and down to the city bus stop at 6:45. When the bus hadn’t come by 6:54, I drove over to the Avent Ferry Food Lion Park & Ride (AFFLP&R), and when I arrived there found my cell phone missing. Thinking I must have dropped it inside my house when … 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 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
