~Tuesday~ I wanted to get in earlier than I would have had I waited for the 8:15 city bus, so I took the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus. Note to future self: Do not take buses that have any chance of getting students to campus on the hour. I got on at the second stop … Read more
~Tuesday~ I drove over to Gorman and Avent Ferry, and picked up the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus at about 8:00. Once again, the bus filled up within the first two or three stops, which meant that soon thereafter there were rear ends about my face. I couldn’t help thinking that the back pocket (or … Read more
~Saturday~ I was up at 6:30 and off to NC State at 7:15 for a 7:30 departure with the Alternative Spring Break 2011 Gulf Coast team for an all-day retreat out at the Braemar Habitat for Humanity site in Zebulon, NC. It worked out that we had four cars going, so I drove separately and … Read more
~Tuesday~ I was pleased with my Tuesday morning weigh-in, another three pounds intently—and intensely—worked off. I caught the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus at around 8:15 from the Food Lion Park & Ride on Avent Ferry Road. At a subsequent stop, a girl who looked a little bit like Tonya Harding, boarded and took the … Read more
~Wednesday~ I caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, and just as I took a seat, I thought I heard, “John!” and then I knew I heard, “John!!!” from a few seats away.

~Thursday~ I picked up the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus this morning, and was pleased to see Jackie on the bus and took a seat next to her. Jackie was the student leader on our 2010 Gulf Coast Alternative Spring Break Trip last year to Thibodaux, LA, where we did post-Katrina Habitat for Humanity Work. … Read more
~Tuesday~ The weather was just perfect today, which translates into temperatures in the high 60s. I think it’s been fairly clearly established here that my body temperature tends to run a little high. Ya think? I caught the 8:15 city bus in, and Try Transit Week has finally arrived, and this is how it will … Read more
~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
~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
~Tuesday~ I was up at 5:15 this morning, and out of the house by 5:30. I picked up Joe at his house at 5:45 and dropped him off in the Delta Airlines area at about 6:05 for his trip to Key West. Lucky bugger. I was back in my bed by 6:30, and although I … Read more
