Is the bus close, credit card fraud free-for-all, a really misplaced modifier, & smokes for dancing

~Wednesday~  I was running way behind this morning, so much so that I caught the #9 Wolfline at the Gorman and Kaplan stop at 8:40. When I arrived at the stop, a student was there waiting and seeing me look at my CrackBerry, she asked, “Is it close?” “Yes, it’s at the stop before this … Read more

To work, back, and to work again; the idiom police; a hellbent task completed; & melon criteria fail

~Wednesday~  I was ready for work with a lot of time before the next either city or university bus would arrive, so I decided to take a chance and drive to work. But when I got to the few spots relatively near my work that don’t have a two-hour limit to them, they were all … Read more

The unsure, wrong decision; waiting to rotate; just-in-time watermelon facts; & out-of-town dancers

~Wednesday~  I was awake before my alarm this morning and ready early enough to have a debate as to whether to potentially wait a bit longer for the sure thing (the Wolfline bus, which I could see on GPS) or possibly an earlier ride, but with a bigger schedule variation (the city bus). In the end, … Read more

Hey baby on the bus, not sitting well, photo-in-a-photo, the back of the bus, & that’s not lasagna..

~Wednesday~  I was at the city bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:30. There were three kids in the back of the bus, two of whom talked loudly non-stop, while the other one, a baby, wailed intermittently. The bus made a stop in front of the new Bristol Creek apartments at the … Read more

A missing buses kind of day, good-looking an under-40 phenomenon, desperate for a mailman, & dancing

~Wednesday~  I checked the online GPS location of the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, and although it was doubtful I would make it to the stop in time, I tried anyway. As I was parking, the bus pulled up about 200 feet away. I walked to the nearest city bus stop, which was pretty close … Read more

Willy-nilly seats, NOT a handpack, implicit AND explict affirmations, & a birthday wish@The Borough

~Wednesday~  I was quasi organized this morning, so I only had to add the four heaping teaspoons of coffee into the coffee maker, which was already primed with a filter and water. I arrived at the city bus stop at 8:14, where within view there were three areas of the sidewalk “under construction.” I’m not … Read more

She works hard for her money, leg-rubbing intimacy, lunch w/Myra & Sarah, & wrong major humor…

~Wednesday~  I drove into work this morning and parked in some 2-hour curbside parking near my office. I parked at 8:40 and promptly set my phone alarm clock to 10:30 to get out there and move it by 10:40. I happened to look at the time at 10:44 and found my alarm set to 10:30 … Read more

Snoozed and loozed, missed buses, a productive work day, bad Mexican cucumbers, and dancing…

~Wednesday~ I snoozed enough times this morning to miss the 8:15 city bus. I killed a little time online, as I watched the progress of the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus on the online GPS system that tracks it. When I thought it was close enough, I hopped in my car, and drove down to … Read more

Google as a yenta tool, Jasmine speaks Spanish, found pills, Suzanne’s mom passes, and dancing…

~Wednesday~  I woke up not feeling at all well this morning. I had sniffles (perhaps a “summer cold” coming on, as they like to say “down here”), and I had an upset stomach. I arrived at the bus stop at 7:19, which was starting to push it for the 7:15 bus, but it didn’t arrive … Read more
