~Sunday~ I slept in long enough to get eight hours sleep. Yay for Sundays, and morning routines: Coffee with breakfast, country gospel music, and a gander through this week’s PostSecrets. At around 4:00, I took about a two-mile walk, over to the Food Lion and back. I didn’t buy anything while I was there; I … Read more
~Saturday~ My alarm was set for 10:00 this morning, but I got up at 9:30. I had some leftover cooked Italian sausage and some mushrooms from my spaghetti dinner the other night, and along with some cheese, I made a most delicious omelet with them. I did two loads of laundry, one of sheets and … Read more
~Friday~ I caught the 7:45 city bus, which arrived late. I am so ambivalent about riding the city bus lately. If it wasn’t for the potential blog fodder, I’d choose the frequency and consistency of the university buses in a New York minute. With that said, I used the time waiting this morning to come … Read more
~Thursday~ I picked up the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus this morning, and was pleased to see Jackie on the bus and took a seat next to her. Jackie was the student leader on our 2010 Gulf Coast Alternative Spring Break Trip last year to Thibodaux, LA, where we did post-Katrina Habitat for Humanity Work. … Read more
~Wednesday~ It was rough getting up this morning. I had my alarm set for 7:30, but got up a little before, and I was down to breakfast by a little after 8:00. I sat at a table by myself, since I was on the tail end of the 7:00-8:30 serving time, and the place was … Read more
~Sunday~ This morning’s breakfast situation was a wash, rinse, and repeat of yesterday’s. I had a relaxing (well at least in terms of it not being crowded) and free hotel breakfast again. A lady on her phone spoke loudly the entire time I was there saying what a particular dog was thinking at any one … Read more
~Wednesday~ In an anomaly, the 7:45 bus was not early, and in fact didn’t come until 7:55. When taking a seat on the bus, I always put my bags—a laptop bag and a soft-sided briefcase, both black—in the window seat and I take the aisle seat. That’s as much as I ever think about it, … Read more
~Tuesday, Election Day~ I had my alarm set for 7:00, with the intention of running up the street to vote and being back to catch the 8:15 bus. I tossed and turned not wanting to get up, running through various scenarios of voting during lunch or after work. Since I didn’t feel like getting up, … Read more
~Monday~ I had my alarm set to 7:00, which is when my doctor’s office opens, and I called to tell them I wouldn’t be making my 7:30 appointment to have lab work done, and rescheduled it for this coming Friday when I’ll be working from home. I caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus in … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at 9:00, and settled into my Sunday morning routine of country gospel music on my iPod—for that fresh just-gone-to-church feeling—along with a gander at this week’s PostSecrets. I spent a couple of hours this morning creating my first “fan page” on Facebook as part of my volunteer work on the board … Read more
