A new bebé, hiding sardines (so to speak), a Valentine’s Day Affair, and a legal conversation…

~Monday~ I arrived at the city bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:24. Two Hispanic ladies were already on when I boarded and they sat—and talked—across the aisle from each other in the center-facing seats up front. I’m pretty sure one of them was someone I commented about at some point in … Read more

Clearer in the light of day, some cheese with that “house” wine, dinner@Red Lobster, & Caribou, too

~Sunday~  I ran to the grocery store, and on the ride over, I noticed a few things wrong with my car that I didn’t notice last night: 1) The Toyota emblem is missing from the front grill of my car, 2) My sunroof no longer slides open, and 3) The spare tire well in the … Read more

A glacial pace arm movement, interesting sweat formations, work affirmations, & Finger’s 30th…

~Friday~  I arrived at the city bus stop at 8:16, and I waited on the sunny side of the street (literally, not figuratively) until the bus arrived at 8:25. The Hot Mess Driver was at the helm, but it wasn’t outrageously hot on the bus—just rageously hot. Library Man was aboard, whom I haven’t seen … Read more

What’s that on your nose and belly, lunch with Libby & Jude @ Coquettes, and a night in…

~Thursday~  I woke up at 7:00 to a dusting of snow, which had covered my car, but was not sticking to the road at all. Which was a good thing, as I had an 8:00 follow-up appointment with my dermatologist to check on the two things she did two weeks ago, and to do a … Read more

Class(less), jalapeños and cheddar, Harry Baals, dancing, and a run of sell outs…

~Wednesday~  Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Another day of class, and I did what I could to check in, mentally, now and then in some bizarre attempt to appear interested when I clearly was not. I don’t think I fooled anyone, at all, not even for a minute. During the two episodes of RuPaul’s Drag Race that … Read more

ROI training of type 1 statements, a perfect pun, a dandy dissertation topic, & nipples in a bag…

~Tuesday~  I drove over to Avent Ferry and Gorman to catch the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus down to the Mission Valley Shopping Center stop, which is across the street from the building I’ll be taking a training class in all day today and tomorrow. Fortunately, I left enough time to endure the unbelievable 20 … Read more

Nice perfume, must you marinate in it; creepy guy lurks and leaves; and a seedling costs…

~Friday~  I caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus to the Student Health Services stop on Dan Allen Drive. A couple of stops later, two young ladies boarded and took seats next to me, and one of them smelled like she had marinated in Sweet Honesty perfume, if that’s still around. From the Student Health … Read more

What “saggy pants” is thinking, “Nightwork”: an absolute HOOT, and a short Black History Month…

~Thursday~ I was back on the city bus this morning, arriving at the bus stop at 8:17, and the bus arriving at 8:22, once again hitting its mode. For the first time I can ever remember all five people who were already seated were all at a window seat, leaving the aisle seat open in … Read more

A razor blade’s lifespan, no double negatives please, canine badging, and dancing…

~Wednesday~  After shaving this morning, I made a note to check my Google calendar to see when I last put a new blade in my razor. Yes, I do track that on my Google calendar, along with other things, such as when I rotated my tires. Because I know you care, I last changed my … Read more
