Filled to capacity, 600 stamps, a wireless key and some condoms, houseguests arrive…

~Thursday~  I caught the Wolfline bus in again this morning, and what a difference a day (or two or three) makes. It was the most crowded I’ve ever seen the bus—everyone must have had 8:00 exams. It was also the most assertive I’ve ever seen any bus driver be as she knew it was going … Read more

An alarming buscapde, affirmations schmaffirmations, a workout, cleaning house, late nite coffee run

~Tuesday~  The bus was running late this morning—almost five minutes past the time when it usually is the latest that it arrives. I put on my patience hat, which never has fit very well. Entering the bus, I was greeted by an ear-piercingly loud noise that continued the entire trip. I don’t know how the bus … Read more

Getting out of jail time off, x-ray results, petty petticoats, Scrabble fun, & holiday cards…

~Monday~  Wrong Way Willie was driving this morning, but he took the correct route today. I suppose he may never live down the fact that he took a wrong turn one day. I certainly can’t see myself dropping it. I’m going to go ahead and rename a character here, and I’ll mention both of her … Read more

I’m a student again, not allowed to eat OPF, ASB dinner, Tiger’s woes, and Ennio…

~Thursday~  I caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus into work, which sadly, was lacking buscapde material. These drugs are kicking ass. I can already feel an improvement in my cough. My application for re-enrollment as a student in non-degree status was completed today, and I was accepted back getting my old student ID number … Read more

Conspiring buscapade characters, becoming a student again, MBD signs, and the trivial at trivia…

~Tuesday~  I think my buscapade characters are conspiring against me for riding the Wolfline buses a lot lately. This morning’s city bus offered up only Sci-Fi Fantasy Man, reading as usual, but without the usual ear buds in. None of my other peeps made an appearance today. We had our weekly department meeting from 9:00-10:00 … Read more

A rider with his legs spread, death in threes, Salon VI, and minimal karaoke…

~Monday~  I had the most ridiculous dreams all night long about editing a document in Microsoft Word that was going to be published on the web. Inane. I got behind enough this morning to miss the 8:15 city bus, so I carried myself over to Gorman Street to catch the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus. … Read more

Privacy vs. fame, a workout, missing Jupiter, and STC judging…

~Sunday~  I am enjoying the massa I received at Thanksgiving from my parents (as a belated birthday present) and I only have a couple left so you can expect only two more reports about it as a breakfast roll. Today, I skipped the egg (since I had three of them in that breakfast combo I … Read more

A Facebook money-wiring scam, Andre Agassi “Open,” and the “After Prom Party”…

~Saturday~  I was up at 8:30 and had a most delicious breakfast sandwich, consisting of turkey sausage, an over-easy egg, and a slice of American cheese melted on top—all on a Portuguese sweet roll. Heaven. I had just logged into Facebook to check out Robert’s Scrabble move, which he usually makes in the morning before … Read more

Thanksgiving meal redux, men and makeup, an exhausting dream, and a 17-year lie…

~Friday~  Joe came over for a late lunch, and I heated up all the leftovers from Vivian and Jeff’s Thanksgiving meal for a repeat, since Joe worked all day yesterday and didn’t have a “real” Thanksgiving dinner. Again, for identification purposes, starting at “12:00” and moving clockwise: chourico (Portuguese sausage), cranberry sauce, corn pudding, mashed … Read more

Thanksgiving, 2009

~Thursday, Thanksgiving Day~  I’d love to have the job of the person who gets to manipulate the art in Google’s logo for various occasions. Today’s was: See the archive of the logo art if you’re interested/curious. Robert arrived around 9:00 and shortly thereafter, we headed to Greenville. We checked in from Wilson to let Vivian … Read more
