Bus-riding rule-breakers, bus cards don’t open doors for you, and Coco Before Chanel…

~Friday~  This is the first time I’ve seen the bus do this, as I’m pretty sure it’s “against the rules”: There was a family—father, mother, and child—waving at the bus right smack dab in the middle of two stops, and it stopped and picked them up. Li’l Dino boarded this morning and sat up front … Read more

Mr. Wiggles; identical twins; hoop earrings & wires; Sadlacks; & dancing…

~Wednesday~  The bus this morning brought us Madonna and Genetically-Beautiful Daughter in the front of the long center-facing seat on the right side of the bus, and passing them to choose my seat, I heard Sophia ask her mother, “But what about Mr. Wiggles?” Approaching the second or third stop after mine, I saw a hot—but … Read more

Paying it forward & back, Rhonda’s birthday, a URL for Pen Island, Hump5 winners, & creative spam…

~Tuesday~  Library Man was on the bus this morning, and as always, was reading a magazine. I took the seat behind him, and you know I peered over the seat to see what he was reading—PC World magazine an article called, “Why you should use sleep mode every day.” Sci-Fi Fantasy Man was also on … Read more

Leftovers, running a fever and a fruitless ATM errand, a few to-do items checked off…

~Sunday~  I forgot to mention a couple of things from last night: 1) There was a guy at Flex, who if he didn’t enter the “Low Budget” category of the costume contest, he should have. His body was heavily tattooed, and he was completely naked except that his junk was stuck into a hard plastic … Read more

Nuts-to-butts, an outrageously wasteful stir stick, and a business trip to Greensboro…

~Thursday~  Another morning on the Wolfline bus instead of the city bus, and another N-2-B situation. I listened to my iPod on the ride in. At first I put on Macy Gray, but finding her a little too edgy for morning music (I am not a morning person), I switched over to the melodious Norah … Read more

Buscapade lacking, I’ve only just begun, a study in B&W, and the wind ensemble…

~Tuesday~  Not one of my named characters was on the bus this morning. I even re-checked the bus route (not that I could be on any bus other than the #12 Method Inbound, since it’s the only one that stops by my house) and I checked the time to see if perhaps I had fallen … Read more

A new search feature, Hugh & Renee’s wedding, some entertaining piano, and a late night snack…

~Saturday~  Evidently LiveJournal has introduced a search tool. Thank goodness! Not having one has long been one of the very few things that I don’t like about LJ. I’m not quite sure why I didn’t see an announcement on it; I found out via an e-mail from my friend Casey (cpeel):  Howdy John, You’ll be … Read more

A buscapade, meeting my tripmate leaders, a workout, and frenemies…

~Thursday~  I rode the Wolfline bus in again this morning. Students. Lots of them. Nuts to butts. We had our monthly area meeting to which our CIO was invited. Surprisingly, there was no lull in the Q&As. In fact, it took up a whole hour of the 1.5-hour meeting. We canceled our weekly 1.5-hour working … Read more
