~Tuesday~ I’ve been running behind in the mornings lately, so today I set my alarm ten minutes earlier than I have been. I was out at the bus stop at 8:17, and the bus arrived at 8:23. It was a beautiful morning weather-wise, and the sun caught the trees near my house and stop at … 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
~Saturday~ I was up at 9:15 and went down to the hotel lobby for breakfast. In a change from normal, it was uncrowded, which made it a very relaxing and free breakfast. Upon heading back to the room, I picked up a cup of coffee, a cup of orange juice, and some danish for Joe. … Read more

~Tuesday~ As I was walking up to the city bus stop, a student (at least he was young and wore a backpack) walked past me, presumably walking down to the Wolfline stop at Gorman and Kaplan. I had to resist saying, “Excuse me. Are you a student? ‘Cause if you are, you can just catch … Read more
~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
