~Friday~ One of the reasons I don’t want to change my cell phone plan is that I am “grandfathered in” (at least so far) with an unlimited data plan. To that end, I don’t ever pay attention to how much bandwidth I’m using each month, but I have often wondered what it is. I logged … Read more
~Monday~ Those of you who know me well know that I don’t like to talk on the phone at all. Robert and I share a Verizon “family plan” for our cell phone service, and when our previous plan that allowed a total of 300 shared minutes per month ended, we had to move up to … Read more
~Thursday~ My throat was sore when I woke up this morning, and I harked up gobs of unmentionable goo. Mark that one up to over-sharing first thing in the morning. I was at the bus stop at 8:10, way too early for the the 8:15 bus, but I had my Kindle with me and used … Read more
~Thursday~ I was able to quickly pack up my breakfast and lunch today, as I’d done a little “prep” work last night, namely peeling, removing the yolk from, and slicing my hard-boiled egg, separating out a weighed portion of ham, and setting the coffee pot to start brewing at 8:00. I’m not really avoiding the … Read more
~Monday~ I left my house at 8:14, was at the bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:20. That’s the kind of timing I like when it’s in the 30s in the morning. There were only three other people already on when I boarded, and I was kind of surprised when the bus … Read more
~Monday~ I was running behind this morning, and arriving at the bus stop at 8:18, I couldn’t be sure if I hadn’t missed the 8:15 bus. At 8:29, I was just about to admit defeat, when the bus pulled up to the nearby intersection. There was a new driver behind the wheel, and he didn’t … Read more
~Saturday~ Internet and e-mail access on my Blackberry was still out this morning when I turned on my phone. I tried to make a phone call and found out that that wasn’t working either. I thought it was just the data plan part that wasn’t working. Checking the “Manage Connections” settings, I found everything indicating … Read more
~Friday~ It wasn’t overly hot this morning, but I still waited on the shady side of the street. In contrast to the one or two people that have been on in the past couple of weeks, the bus actually had 8-10 people on it already when I boarded. Library Man was aboard, and since there … Read more
~Tuesday~ I was back on the 8:15 bus today, which was driven by the usual driver, but with unusual hair. Not unusual in general, just unusual for her. It was teased out, and I liked it. A couple of stops into the route, a plus-sized lady boarded with a turquoise and lime green top on. … Read more
~Monday~ There was a slight drizzle of rain at the bus stop this morning, and when I walked up a young African-American guy was there holding his book bag over his head. I watched him from under my umbrella-ella-ella (sorry—channeling Rihanna there for a second), and at one point he put the bag down, reached … Read more
