~Tuesday~ Today’s buscapades were “bookended” by poor planning, which is to say that both buses (inbound in the morning and outbound in the afternoon) waited for me as I ran to them. I was grateful to make it on both accounts. He’s got no ticket to ride, He’s got no ticket to ride, He’s got … Read more
~Labor Day, Monday~ I made another one of those killer omelets this morning, adding some sliced ham to it, this time. Yummy! I wish I could make my omelets like this, but I can’t: Actually, I haven’t even tried doing all that flipping. Maybe I’ll try it next time. My biggest fear is that shit … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at 9:30 and had an Asiago-Parmesan bagel with low-fat cream cheese with chives for breakfast, along with some coffee. For lunch, I made an amazingly delicious omelet, taking advantage of some of the veggies I’d cut up yesterday. I put cheddar cheese, onions, red pepper, and mushrooms on it. So yummy! Have … Read more
~Thursday~ I forgot to mention yesterday, that on the way home, on that 8:15 bus, the Waffle House Lady was on her way to work. I always see her in the morning on the way home from work. She looks happier in the morning going home. I’m just saying… Just now-christened Diarrhea-of-the-Mouth was on board … Read more
~Saturday~ We were up at 9:00 in time to have the hotel’s complimentary breakfast, which ended at 10:00. Robert scored a table for us, which was no easy feat, and I enjoyed a bagel with cream cheese, along with a hard-boiled egg, topping it off with a small banana-nut muffin and some coffee. Life is … Read more
~Sunday~ I made cheddar cheese omelets for us for breakfast, with three turkey sausage links each, and an English muffin. And coffee, of course. I wrote an entry that I’m going to submit to AARP for a column they’re doing in September: “Tell us what you really know about television. E-mail your factual essay of … Read more
~Friday~ Five-sixths of the Salon—Sarah, Kim, Anna, Brad (in order of appearance in the slideshow)— met at Helios from 11:00 until about 1:30, where we proceeded to have an impromptu petit Salon. Two Tweeters made an appearance at Helios while I was there, always a delight to see both—@hughlh and @abbyladybug. I got an email … Read more
~Thursday~ I was up at 4:15, left my house at 4:30, picked up Joe at 4:45, dropped him off at Terminal 2 at 5:00, and returned home at 5:15. I had hoped to work from home today, as earlier in the week I had no meetings scheduled today. However, a 9:00 one got put on … Read more
~Saturday~ Today’s entry starts off with a confession. For the last two days I’ve been doing something I haven’t done in a long time. I’ve watched television. I used to love The Practice back when it was on and I had a TV. To be precise, I guess, what I loved was Dylan McDermott playing … Read more
I had my annual physical this morning, which I’ve been dreading for several months now. I got the usual cadre of annual physical checks starting with lab work, which I’d fasted for 12 hours in preparation for, and as always, I asked that an HIV test be included. The phlebotomist seemed like she was “in training”—which is … Read more
