A hairy run, a meds drop-off, hateful overeating, a let-go bartender, and Jackasses…

~Wednesday~  I was totally not into going to work again today, which is a trend I don’t like. I’m going to make some adjustments to my personal calendar today to factor in a little me time. I don’t do the introvert thing often, but every once in a while it beckons me. I parked on … Read more

Football, not teaching, stupid; eating affirmations; scientific miracles; & a distressing defense…

~Tuesday~  I was dragging ass this morning, and it took everything I had in me not to call in sick for the day. I put off getting out of bed so long that I didn’t have time to make breakfast, lunch, or even coffee to take to with me to work. I parked on Gorman, … Read more

A short history in a fat book, an amazingly affirming gift, and an update on our Habitat house…

~Thursday~  I got a late start this morning, and after making my breakfast and lunch sandwiches while waiting for my four cups of coffee to brew, I drove over to Gorman and Avent Ferry to catch the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus.

It was a beautiful, sunny, 69° spring morning with the smell of fresh-cut grass in the air, remnants of fresh-cut grass on the pavement, and the sound of fresh-cut grass becoming … Read more

An up non sequitur, a creepy backseat theater man, The Virginia Gentlemen, & a late night workout…

~Monday~  I caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus, and a guy with nice legs sat to my left doing a crossword puzzle on his iTouch. At a subsequent stop, a student on crutches got on and an Asian guy gave up one of the handicap seats for him, which reminded me of this sign … Read more

Facebooking on the bus, one out of three meetings agree, and a bad connection @ Helios…

~Friday~  I parked on Gorman and caught the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus in. After taking my seat in the back, I looked around and saw someone that I thought was my friend Jackie, but I couldn’t be absolutely sure, as her face was turned toward the front of the bus, and she was behind some … Read more
