Bus times
10.26.07 (9:52 am)   [edit]

I was on the bus after work yesterday, and there were slim pickins’ for seats. I was about to sit in the back row, but I ended up sitting on the seats that face towards the aisle (over the wheel) next to the back row instead. I hate sitting in the back row because my feet can’t touch the ground. But there was a bum sitting there, too.

My seat was still really close to him. He was reading the paper or doing something, and he kept jabbing my hair accidentally. He was also really sniffly and snotty.

Sitting next to me was a guy who took up about 2/3 of our seat. He leaned forward and proceeded to sleep. However, he kept falling into me.

I was leaning forward to avoid the bum, but I still had to lean towards the bum because of this sleeping giant. If I hadn’t leaned away, the guy’s head would have been right in front of my face. And I couldn’t tell if the stench was coming from him either.

I didn’t want to stare at the bum, but I think he was changing. At one point, he was shirtless because he changed out of a shirt and put on a vest??

Tomorrow is a full bus day. I’m leaving the car at home after I get my snow tires on. I’m bussing out to the movie theatres to lead a training session for the Vancouver Asian Film Festival. Then I’m off to get some career advice from an astrologist, and then it’s off to Mr. Nick’s!

Oooh, tonight I’m going to do some baking. I hope it doesn’t take too long. I want to watch TV. I’m baking peanut blossoms for a friend’s birthday tomorrow. I call them breast cookies because they remind me of breasts. And I’m going to try these peanut butter and jam cookies, too! Oh oh. I think I gave Mr. Nick the jam that I would have used!

Sheesh it sounds like quite the workout just to ride the bus!! heh
I think it would be so cool to be able to hop on a bus and ride to where ever I wanted to go :)

Mr. Nick has gotten off the bus before just because he couldn't deal with the other riders! The bus system is only convenient in Vancouver...It's a real pain to take public transit in the suburbs!

Ok the bus ride was not that great but you got a blog entry out of it. LOL

What did the astrologist say?
Cookies sound interesting. How nice of you to do that for a friend.

Oh, those cookies...My boyfriend helped me out with them, and we were baking down to the wire! I had used the wrong amount of butter, so I had to start the cookies all over again!

I have another bus trip to take today...maybe it will be more pleasant ;-)

I'll be posting about my astrological reading later :)

BWAHAHA Does this mean you don't take the bus very often? Sometimes you can't avoid having people in your personal space on the bus.

I wish those cookies didn't look so much like breasts, but they're just round peanut butter cookies with a Hershey's kiss in the middle!
