~Tuesday~ I was back on the 8:15 bus today, which was driven by the usual driver, but with unusual hair. Not unusual in general, just unusual for her. It was teased out, and I liked it. A couple of stops into the route, a plus-sized lady boarded with a turquoise and lime green top on. … Read more
~Sunday~ My alarm went off 6:00 and I snoozed until the 6:09 ring. I didn’t hear any movement in the hallway, which was surprising since Xolani and I had to leave at 6:30 to head downtown to the Clarion Hotel to meet Jesse and the others for their trip to DC. I knocked on Xolani’s door, … Read more
~Wednesday~ Xolani and I rode the bus together this morning. It was running a little behind, arriving at our stop closer to 7:30 than 7:20. Li’l Dino boarded at her stop and she said hello to me while touching my shoulder as she passed me. Cell Phone Lady boarded at her regular stop and she … Read more
~Tuesday~ I had a two-bus ride to work this morning, as I had a 9:00-10:30 meeting in a building I don’t work in. The first leg was the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus, upon which a girl boarding after me walked by sporting an old-fashioned, metal, 101 Dalmatians, lunch box. Following closely behind her was … Read more
~Saturday~ We were up shortly after eight, and at the NC State’s Farmers’ Market Restaurant for breakfast by 10:00. We each had their most delicious French Toast. I had an egg over easy on the side with mine, and Robert had a side of bacon with his. Back at home, I was in and out, … Read more
~Friday~ I took a “mental health day” from work today—taking eight hours of leave time, and sleeping a glorious eight hours. I caught up a day of my blog, did some laundry, and got through my pile of mail from last week. Robert came over after work, and we went to see Sandra Bullock‘s Academy Award-winning … Read more
~Monday~ I’m itching to get back to my “life’s routine,” but I didn’t start the day that way, waking up five minutes after I should have been at work. I’d set my alarm clock for 7:30PM instead of 7:30AM. After a quick e-mail to my boss, I rushed through my morning ritual and arrived at … Read more
~Sunday~ We were up and at ’em bright and early this morning, checking out at 7:30, stopping for a quick gas fill-up, and checking in for our flights. On the New Orleans-to-Atlanta leg, there were monitors on the backs of each seat and many members of the group played electronic trivia against each other. We … Read more
~Saturday~ The Maryland group left at about 6:30. We packed up and cleaned up the house in and got on the road to New Orleans at about 10:00. We dropped Casey off at her grandmother’s and then spent four hours in New Orleans. I walked to a gay bar called JohnPaul’s to see where it … Read more
~Friday~ See my NC State Alternative Spring Break 2010 Gulf Coast trip group for three blog entries today: Sign, sign, everywhere a sign…” As promised… pictures from Tuesday.” Letters to Home.”
