~Monday~ I woke up at 8:30 again, and once again after not being able to fall back asleep for an hour, I got up. In an attempt to salvage some of those dreadful deviled eggs from yesterday, I scooped out the mixture and chopped up the whites of a few of them, which I sautéed … Read more
~Thursday~ I was at the city bus stop at 8:18. Because the bus didn’t arrive until 8:25, and there was no one else waiting at the stop after that deluge of students yesterday, I was starting to wonder if I’d missed it getting out there at 8:18. I guess those students only have Monday-Wednesday classes … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up at 7:30 this morning, after some very weird, very “involved” dreams. I didn’t mention my stop at the grocery store yesterday on the way home from the gym, but while there, I bought a box of All-Bran cereal and ate a huge bowl of it for dinner last night, along with … Read more
~Monday~ I was ready to head out at 8:05, which is about 15 minutes too early for the city bus, so I checked to see where the Wolfline bus was. The GPS service indicated, “Route not in service.” Oh yes, it’s that week after summer session ends, but before fall session starts, so only three … Read more
~Tuesday~ Since I was up on the early side this morning, I decided to drive to work, and I got the penultimate free parking spot down by the Raleigh Little Theater. Sweet. And since I don’t have a buscapde to share, I’ll share a link to this very short article from The Onion sent to … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was totally not into going to work again today, which is a trend I don’t like. I’m going to make some adjustments to my personal calendar today to factor in a little me time. I don’t do the introvert thing often, but every once in a while it beckons me. I parked on … Read more
~Sunday~ I slept in late today, managing to get up just before it turned afternoon. I worked some more on the “paperwork process,” getting through the bank statements pile, the insurance pile, and the medical and dental pile. I had two file folders for insurance. The first one holds my Nationwide policies, which includes an … Read more
~Tuesday~ My alarm went off at 6:00, but I snoozed a couple of alarm cycles, probably due to the somewhat restless night of what, in retrospect I suppose, were nightmares. I say it that way, because I woke up at one point from them, but instead of my heart pounding and my mind racing like … Read more
~Wednesday~ I caught the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus, to which I ran from my parking spot to catch. Although it was only the second stop, all of the seats were already taken and there were already students standing in the aisle. That’s just crazy. I had a glorious work day of no meetings. I … Read more
~Saturday~ I stopped by Food Lion on the way to Durham and used today’s Krispy Kreme Challenge as an excuse to bring a dozen of their plain, glazed donuts to our Manbites Dog Theater board meeting. I arrived at Manbites right at noon to an appropriate amount of thanks and affirmations, both for the donuts … Read more
