Return of the NEMATOMOBILE, a D-I-Y car repair, prisoner work, exercising, coffee, & scareyoke…

~Monday~ I worked from home this morning, and at lunch time I headed over to Thompson Collision Repair to pick up my car. My first stop was at Enterprise to turn in my rental, and from where I received a ride to Thompson by a man who had a chauffeur look to him and was … Read more

A compelling PostSecret, hot coffee and a hot daddy, a workout, and some scareyoke…

~Sunday~  I slept in this morning, and started my day off with a look at this week’s PostScrets. I found this one to be the most compelling of this week’s collection: I spent a good portion of the afternoon at Cup a Joe Mission Valley, where I spent a good portion of the time there … Read more

Senior seats & coffee, D-Day@work, an intellectual boner, and an immortal life…

~Friday~  I parked on Gorman Street, crossed the street, and got on the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus pulling up. The bus was sparse for a change, which was good, but we got behind a school bus, which wasn’t good, making it a slow ride in. Some might argue that ours is a school bus, … Read more

Clearer in the light of day, some cheese with that “house” wine, dinner@Red Lobster, & Caribou, too

~Sunday~  I ran to the grocery store, and on the ride over, I noticed a few things wrong with my car that I didn’t notice last night: 1) The Toyota emblem is missing from the front grill of my car, 2) My sunroof no longer slides open, and 3) The spare tire well in the … Read more

A glacial pace arm movement, interesting sweat formations, work affirmations, & Finger’s 30th…

~Friday~  I arrived at the city bus stop at 8:16, and I waited on the sunny side of the street (literally, not figuratively) until the bus arrived at 8:25. The Hot Mess Driver was at the helm, but it wasn’t outrageously hot on the bus—just rageously hot. Library Man was aboard, whom I haven’t seen … Read more

ROI training of type 1 statements, a perfect pun, a dandy dissertation topic, & nipples in a bag…

~Tuesday~  I drove over to Avent Ferry and Gorman to catch the Wolfline #1 Avent Ferry bus down to the Mission Valley Shopping Center stop, which is across the street from the building I’ll be taking a training class in all day today and tomorrow. Fortunately, I left enough time to endure the unbelievable 20 … Read more

Traveling inanimate object memories, dead relatives redux, team players in the gym, and Caribou…

~Sunday~  Oh glorious sleepful morning. I arose at 11:30. Guess what I did this morning! Right. Coffee. Breakfast. Country Gospel Music. PostSecrets. A few secrets captured my imagination this morning: to which someone had mailed in a related secret: I think about all the things my glasses have seen whenever I get a new pair. … Read more

The prodigal gym bunny, bleeding employees, crashing dishes, screaming babies, & a crowded bar…

~Saturday~  I finally got my lazy ass back to the gym today, where I did only 200 ab crunches, since I haven’t done them in over a week, and so I’ll still be able to sit up tomorrow. I followed that up with 40 minutes of cardio on the elliptical machine. I didn’t see any … Read more

A mode emerges, Black Love, a twofer shelter, a dismal view, and putting an end to The Help…

~Monday~  I arrived at the city bus stop at 8:15, and the bus arrived at 8:22. Not to get all back into frequency distribution and statistics, but I think 8:22 is starting to be a significant number. In the game of mean, median, mode, and range, 8:22 is clearly emerging as the mode. Who cares? … Read more

Picking your seat, friends age 8 years, Anna reads, gay men bowl, and I drink…

~Thursday~  It was a typical morning, except an hour earlier today. I was at the city bus stop at 7:17 and the bus arrived at 7:25. 70% Geek / 30% Military arrived at the stop after me, and as is his M.O., took out a hardback book and read. A man walking on the other … Read more
