Scrotal obstructions, an unsatisfactory customer experience, a mellowing yellow urinal, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I was at the city bus stop at 8:16, and the bus arrived at 8:23. The usual 8:15, Hot Mess Driver herself, was at the helm. The temperature outside was beautiful, so having absolutely no air circulating on the bus wasn’t as bad as it might have been. A couple of students took the … Read more

Was it good for you, where in the WORLD, an Easter bonnet mash-up, a reunion dinner, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I parked at the Avent Ferry Park & Ride this morning, and walking across the parking lot, I ran into my friend Jackie, student team leader of our 2010 ASB Gulf Coast trip. From our short conversation to the bus, I learned about what the Food Lion management considers to be “perimeter” parking there … Read more

Bus driver on trial, out of the rut at Sadlack’s, a rainbow Greenpeace rep, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I left my place at 8:00, and I parked at the Avent Ferry Park & Ride with plans to do a quick run into the Food Lion upon my return home this evening. Had to get those raisins I mentioned yesterday. The Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus driver was standing outside the bus talking … Read more

A hairy run, a meds drop-off, hateful overeating, a let-go bartender, and Jackasses…

~Wednesday~  I was totally not into going to work again today, which is a trend I don’t like. I’m going to make some adjustments to my personal calendar today to factor in a little me time. I don’t do the introvert thing often, but every once in a while it beckons me. I parked on … Read more

Rewarding behavior you don’t want to encourage, an impressive student, and cheap decadence…

~Wednesday~  I was at the city bus stop at 8:18. Shortly after that Exercising Asian Man walked down the entrance to our townhouse, but instead of coming to our stop, he turned left and jogged down to the one further down the street. The bus arrived at 8:24. Hot Mess Driver was at the helm, … Read more

Rolls in the morning, intellectual debate all day, and a sh*t-ton of exercise at night…

~Wednesday~  Before parking for the bus on Gorman, I ran into the Food Lion and bought a bag of King’s Hawaiian Sandwich Rolls and used one of them to make my breakfast sandwich and another to make my lunch sandwich later in the day. I initiated what turned out to be a fun, fun, fun … Read more

Much ado about a cell phone, sleepy bus drivers, lunch w/Susan, and an annoying dance night…

~Wednesday~  I was up at 6AM and down to the city bus stop at 6:45. When the bus hadn’t come by 6:54, I drove over to the Avent Ferry Food Lion Park & Ride (AFFLP&R), and when I arrived there found my cell phone missing. Thinking I must have dropped it inside my house when … Read more

A mountain of paperwork, user task improvement by Google, and a long night of dancing…

~Saturday~  I was up at 9:30 this morning, after a wonderful eight hours of sleep. Oh glorious weekend. I spent a good portion of the day going through mountains of paperwork in preparation for two things: 1) submitting my North Carolina Health Care Flexible Spending Account (NCHCFSA) form, which has to be in by March … Read more

A well-rounded derriere, a foiled planning meeting, a red-eye photo, dinner w/Andrew, & dancing…

~Wednesday~  I parked at the Avent Ferry Food Lion Park & Ride @ 7:30 and caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus. The young man who boarded in front of me sported a high-and-tight and wore a yellow T-shirt that highlighted his biceps, outlined his pecs, and showed only a little bit of paunch—presumably obtained … Read more

A late start, prolific eye candy, alligator wallpaper, and a fun night of dancing…

~Wednesday~  I got a late start today, missing the 8:15 city bus, so caught a Wolfline bus instead. As it was approaching 9:00, the bus was super-crowded, which inevitably lends itself to prolific eye candy. But I digress… A guy sitting across from me was reading The Machine That Changed The World, presumably as a … Read more
