~Sunday~ I slept in this morning. Oh glorious Sunday. I didn’t have any bread, which is a real bummer to me when it comes to breakfast. I made a ham-onion-cheddar omelet, and suffered through it without toast. This entry from today’s PostSecrets made me think of the three voicemail messages I have saved of my … Read more
~Saturday~ I finally got my lazy ass back to the gym today, where I did only 200 ab crunches, since I haven’t done them in over a week, and so I’ll still be able to sit up tomorrow. I followed that up with 40 minutes of cardio on the elliptical machine. I didn’t see any … Read more
~Friday~ I caught the city bus for the first time in a while, arriving at the stop at 8:17 and boarding the bus at 8:25. Hot Mess Driver was at the helm, and the temperature on the bus was warm, but not excruciating. A guy who boarded at the Gorman and Conifer stop took way … Read more
~Thursday~ I was running very late this morning, and I parked on Gorman near Avent Ferry to catch the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, which came at around 8:45. An Asian girl was at the stop and she had on black, knitted gloves that had white rabbit faces raised on the back side of the … Read more
~Wednesday~ I had a first-time appointment with a dermatologist who was recommended by my friend, Kevin (av8rdude). When I entered the building in which the practice resides, I was struck by a sign that reminded me of failblog.org‘s new feature called, “Oddly Specific,” which includes entries like: and I mean I’ve heard of pain clinics … Read more
~Tuesday~ I drove over to Gorman and Avent Ferry, and picked up the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus at about 8:00. Once again, the bus filled up within the first two or three stops, which meant that soon thereafter there were rear ends about my face. I couldn’t help thinking that the back pocket (or … Read more
~Monday~ I was up early this morning, and I drove over to the Avent Ferry Park & Ride to catch one of the Wolfline buses. Both the #9 Greek Village and the #1 Avent Ferry were there, and I walked up to the closed door of the #9, which was in front of the #1, … Read more
~Sunday~ From 2:00-4:00 I attended, and documented, our Manbites Dog 25th Anniversary Planning Gathering, at the home of Michael Hayes and his wife Mig, in Durham. It was a very productive meeting of long-time supporters, new business neighbors (including TJ, the owner of Kings Sandwich Shop next door to the theater) and past and present … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up at 6:30 and off to NC State at 7:15 for a 7:30 departure with the Alternative Spring Break 2011 Gulf Coast team for an all-day retreat out at the Braemar Habitat for Humanity site in Zebulon, NC. It worked out that we had four cars going, so I drove separately and … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was at the city bus stop at 8:14 and the bus arrived at 8:25, with Hot Mess Driver at the helm. I made a quick assessment as to whether I thought I could make it the entire ride with my sweatjacket on and decided I couldn’t. Too hot. At a subsequent stop, a … Read more
