A long blog entry about a long day, spent mostly in service…

~Saturday~  I was up at 6:45 and looking in my bathroom mirror saw this one-inch gash on my nose with dried blood on it. I have no idea how that happened during the night. With some peroxide (and therefore bubbling), I was able to wipe away the blood and fold the slightly hanging skin back … Read more

Sudoko, Tiger’s dead baby, a deaf genie, an affirmation, and dinner w/Robert & Casey…

~Friday~ A non-regular rider was doing a Sudoku puzzle in my line of vision on the bus this morning, and I had the following thoughts watching him: I just never have been engaged by those. I would much rather be playing with words in a crossword puzzle, as I prefer words to numbers and at … Read more

Buscapades, after-work drinks, and an early night in…

~Thursday~  This morning’s city bus ride featured Library Man reading not an industry trade magazine, but what I at first thought might be Woman’s Day magazine, but turned out to be the Parade magazine, a Sunday paper insert in these parts. Library Man had some kind of sinus issue going on this morning, which exposed … Read more

Google Apps @ NC State, class canceled, a healthy dinner, and dancing with Casey…

~Wednesday~  I rode the Wolfline bus in, and I went in early, so there were very few people on the bus to observe. I took advantage of the opportunity to read the rest of my homework assignment for class tonight. Speaking of class, I had totally forgotten about it (in spite of doing homework for … Read more

A board meeting, a fortuitous lunch, a workout, ebony/ivory & chubby/older fetishes, & Casey arrives

~Sunday~  At 9:30, I headed out to Durberville to see Tess. Not really. But, I did head to Durham to attend our 10:00-11:30 Manbites Dog Theater Board of Directors Meeting. It was a very good and productive meeting, one where emotions got a little high, but with everyone’s obvious commitment to the success of the … Read more

Implicit affirmations, eating weenies with men, a personal space invader, and hours of minutes…

~Sunday~  Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Slept in. Sesame seed bagel with honey walnut cream cheese. Yolkless hard-boiled egg. Coffee. What can I say? I’m and ESFJ, and I like routine. The good news is that that was the last bagel. Look for a change-up tomorrow. I’ve been meaning to capture this: Although I didn’t attend any … Read more

Waning vacation days, a mistaken identity caller, coffee w/Patrick, and dancing…

~Saturday~  I was up at 11:00 after a full eight hours sleep. Glorious—albeit too-quickly disappearing—vacation days. For breakfast, I had a bagel and a yolkless hard-boiled egg along with a sesame seed bagel with honey walnut cream cheese on it, and some coffee from a coffee pot that was on its best behavior this morning. … Read more

New Year’s Eve… another complete calendar year of not missing a day of blogging…

~Thursday, New Year’s Eve~  This is my 365th entry this year. Another full calendar year of not missing a day of blogging. Yay, me. I was up at 9:00, which is fairly early for me on a vacation day, and after a sesame bagel with honey walnut cream cheese and some coffee, I put in … Read more

There’s only so much you can do with an egg, too much alcohol, and some dancing…

~Wednesday~  I had breakfast at Pam’s Farm House restaurant, and the waitress was at our table and poised with her pad and pen within seconds after having delivered our coffee. The two people with me were still looking at their menus, so I joked to her as she stood in the ready position, “You sure … Read more
