Digital scrapbooking, being mistaken for a Republican, hilariously Nearly Lear, and Pride night out

~Saturday~  I spent some time at work today working on a digital scrapbook for my boss’ retirement gathering, which will be on Thursday of this week. I made good progress on it. At around 5:30, I took a walk up and down Hillsborough Street, where this was going on: Hillsborough Street Grand Re-opening FestivalAs I … Read more

“Excuse me. I’m going to do some flogging, and I don’t want to accidentally hurt you…”

~Friday~  I wanted to catch the Wolfline bus in this morning in order to check out the parking situation on Gorman Street up by Avent Ferry now that the resurfacing project seems to be finished. Though there aren’t any “No Parking” signs in the area where you used to be able to street park all … Read more

A halter on the bus, a LARGE PRINT book, the 65 questions Facebook meme, & Trailer Park Prize Night

~Thursday~ I caught the 7:45 city bus, and the boy who ran up late to the bus on Tuesday was already there and waiting this morning. The weather was beautiful outside, but the air on the inside was still. A lady sat up and to the left of me in a center-facing seat with a … Read more

Avoiding the S-word, a freakin awesome affirmation, TMI pictures, and a Plastics Anonymous party…

~Wednesday~  I walked up to the bus stop at 8:19 and the bus arrived at 8:20. I love it when that happens. When I boarded there was a city bus newbie, who was asking the bus driver at which stop he should get off in order to catch a connector to somewhere. I walked around … Read more

A boo earworm, boss churn, jonesin’ for free Glee, and a lot of cognitive dissonance…

~Tuesday~  For some reason—and that would be that lady’s endearment (“boo”) yesterday to the boy on the cellphone who had to run across the street to catch the bus—I was singing (and I use the term loosely) Nelly’s Dilemma to myself. As I was boarding the 7:45 city bus, a kid ran up to the … Read more

All caught up with Glee, Mostly Social Book Club, and some short-lived insanity…

~Sunday~  I went to Jen’s at 1:00 for “Glee Club,” where we first reviewed the Wikipedia entries for the next three episodes picking up from where we left off last. The reason we only reviewed these instead of watching them was because I’d already seen them a while back, when I first watched the Laryngitis … Read more

The Greek Festival, Kathryn & Mark’s housewarming party, and brownout night…

~Saturday~  I was up at a decent hour, since I was to bed at a decent hour. Funny how that works. Robert arrived at shortly after noon, and we made our way over to the fairgrounds for The Greek Festival. I had free admission tickets, compliments of a (Greek) co-worker, who’s involved with the festival … Read more

The sheriff, fire potential, one thin dime, a junked trunk, space planning, Mardi Gras 2011, & TPPN

~Thursday~  A deputy sheriff was in the ‘hood this morning when I headed out to the bus stop. It stopped right in front of my house and I saw him walking with some papers in his hand toward the townhouse across from mine. You know I stretched my neck as far as it would stretch … Read more

Chin whisker laser surgery beard, a visually crisp morning, 2-years today, a haircut, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I caught the 6:45 bus, which was so on time that I would have missed it if I’d’ve run back to my house to get my phone charger that I’d forgotten, like I’d thought about doing. When I got on, there were two other people already aboard at this god-awful hour, including an older … Read more

Glee Club with Jen, stocking up food at work, Facebook twins, & scareyoke…

~Sunday~  My alarm was set for 11:15. I woke up at 11:30. Good thing it wasn’t a work day, as it turned out it was set for 11:15 PM. I hate it when that happens. I attended “Glee Club” at Jen’s house at 2:00, and we watched the first three episodes after the Sectionals episode: … Read more
