A menopause check, a bowl for breakfast, reasons to blog, an MSBC book, and Brad’s book…

~Friday~  I walked up to the bus stop and onto the bus. Get out of my dreams, get into my car. It was the 8:15 bus, and a chubby white guy was driving, but there was no air circulating and it was somewhere between bake and broil in that Jenn-Air oven. I checked out two … 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

SSDD on the bus, 3 parts to a genuine apology, ASB starts up, and happiness social media style…

~Tuesday~  I caught the 8:15 city bus, and although Stagnant Driver wasn’t the driver, it was stagnant on the bus anyway. I just don’t understand. What’s so hard about sensing that even just a fan blowing to circulate the air on the bus would make it more comfortable? A guy who got on at Gorman … Read more

Kevin departs, a couple of snap-snaps, a chancellor chalk talk, and Salon XIV…

~Monday~  Kevin ended up getting in closer to 4AM than 3AM, but he got up at 8AM to come downstairs to bid me adieu. At about 8:10, I said to Kevin, “I don’t want to get out there too early for the bus.” I went to my kitchen window and looked out saying, “I wonder … 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

The weather’s perfect, so Stagnant Driver wears a coat; and a potential coke-blowing utensil…

~Friday~  The weather was absolutely perfect this morning at 63° and 65% humidity; although, it’s kind of scary when 65% humidity feels great. Since I was back on the 8:15 bus, Stagnant Driver pulled up and boarding I noted that she had on a windbreaker jacket, which was zipped all the way up. And although … Read more

Faux temps, hyperbolic sunshine, finding a church on the bus, & dealt 2 cards—a Queen & a 3…

~Thursday~  At the bus stop, the weather felt crisp and I wondered what the temperature was. A quick check of The Weather Channel app on my CrackBerry indicated 59°, which I just couldn’t believe. “It can’t be that cold out here.” I checked wral.com’s weather page, and it said 67°, which seemed much more plausible. … Read more

Being earsprayed and fishing on the bus, a good day at work, and Geromy’s swan dance…

~Wednesday~  The 7:45 city bus was on the late side, arriving at about 7:58. Who’s keeping track? When it pulled up, I noticed that its front and center sign that alternately displays the route (#12 Method) and the direction (Inbound or Outbound) indicated outbound. However, when it gets to my stop, it is inbound. I’m … Read more

An airport run, working from home, a sympathy card, a workout, and money & happiness…

~Tuesday~  I took Kevin (av8rdude) to the airport this morning to pick up his rental car instead of this afternoon to catch his flight back to Seattle, as his plans changed while he was here, and he’s off to the northeast instead. I worked from home with the exception of running in to the office … Read more
