~Friday~ I was up and logged in to work at 5:30 this morning, and I’d sent three e-mails by 6:00. At 7:30, I ran out to my doctor’s office to have some lab work done. When I walked into the bathroom where I was to “produce a sample,” my first thought was, “There really needs … Read more
~Tuesday~ Due to my early retirement last night, I was up at 5:30, and on the bus at 6:15. Well, I was out in the rain at the stop at 6:17, and I waited in that rain until 6:24 for the bus. The bus was surprisingly crowded for the first bus of the day and … Read more
~Tuesday~ The 8:15 bus was once again commandeered by the outdoorsy loud hello bus driver—who I actually like in case you can’t tell. I think I’ve mentioned these two Hispanic ladies before—they each have a child, and they always sit across the aisle from one another as opposed to in front of or behind each … Read more
~Wednesday~ The 7:45 city bus was on the late side, arriving at about 7:58. Who’s keeping track? When it pulled up, I noticed that its front and center sign that alternately displays the route (#12 Method) and the direction (Inbound or Outbound) indicated outbound. However, when it gets to my stop, it is inbound. I’m … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at a decent hour, since I stayed in last night and got to bed at a decent hour. What a concept. I spent a couple hours beginning the process of cleaning up the clutter in my house in anticipation of two house guests I have coming—at different times—over the next couple … Read more
~Wednesday~ I caught the #9 Greek Village Wolfline bus in this morning, and tracked its progress to my stop on my BlackBerry via this website. Shortly after I arrived at the Kaplan/Gorman stop to wait for the bus, a young lady wearing a backpack walked up to the stop and stood within hearing distance of … 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
~Wednesday~ Another nipply morning, and another rider paying his bus fare with gloves on. This was a sensible person, though, as he was not trying to deposit coins, but merely sliding his fare card, which he did beautifully and it worked perfectly. Oh yeah, he was me. Sci-Fi Fantasy Man was reading a small hard-bound … Read more
~Monday~ I caught the 8:30 #1 Avent Ferry Wolfline bus in this morning, as I had a class at the Avent Ferry Technology Center (AFTC), which is right across from the Mission Valley Shopping Center on Avent Ferry Road. I’ve only ever taken that bus before to take it all the way into campus. I … Read more
~Sunday~ I caught up my Friday and Saturday blog entries, with the Friday one taking way, way more time than I wanted it to working on that community service history table. Oh well, it’s nice to have it now that it’s done. I did a load of laundry while I worked on those. I did … Read more
