in the far right hand lane 6

This always happens to me. Every bus I take seems to have some sort of problem. Either it’s too full, too slow, too bumpy, or breaks down like today. We had to wait ten minutes while the silly bus driver tried to get the bus started again — as if the first three times […]

I look up from my book and realize that the bus is not moving anymore, and has not been for some time. People do not appear to be very angry, but some of them do seem to be annoyed. The book I’m reading, Wittgenstein’s Poker, is a bit about philosophy and just spoke about a […]

thirty-seven, four, and my next year

On first glance, there is nothing interesting about the number thirty-seven. It is not divisible by anything. It is two odd and prime numbers, three and seven. It is one more than a highly divisible number, thirty-six, which is a very good number indeed.
I think numbers are better when they are divisible and […]

the guy with the beer 1

Good. Tuesday again. I can go to Osco and get more beer. My mom gives me more money every Monday night, and it’s Tuesday morning before I can get to the Osco to buy more beer. So I walk over, and I walk back. Three beers a day, four on […]

in the far right hand lane 4

Well, if we had to stop somewhere, at least we stopped in front of the golf course. And luckily I’m standing so I have a great view of it and the lake beyond. The sailboats are out already and it’s only 7:00 in the morning.
I don’t take this express bus everyday, but I take […]

in the far right hand lane 3

If that man next to me does not stop his rocking soon, I think I might have to slap him. I mean, we’ve just stopped for a little bit, some other bus will come along soon to collect us. He should just chill and be glad we’re some of the seated passengers. He […]

in the far right hand lane 2

This is exactly what I did not need today, the bus being stopped on Lake Shore Drive. I guess it doesn’t really matter if we break down, we are here so early. I have not been able to sleep at all lately. I haven’t quite determined why, but I keep going to doctors […]

in the far right hand lane 1

I thought that today was going to be an extraordinary day, because my first two buses were perfectly on schedule.
I usually leave my house at exactly 6:24, so that I can get to the Foster bus stop at 6:29, and then there is a Foster bus that collects me at my stop at 6:31. […]

in the far right hand lane

The other day, I chose to take an express bus from the north down to my work. It was very crowded for some reason, and I was right up at the front, looking out the front window, mere feet from the driver. We were halfway down Lake Shore drive when the driver said, […]

they’re not meeting on the lakefront any more 7

They’re not meeting on the lakefront any more. That bitch. Dad would never have done this of his own accord - he doesn’t make decisions for himself, ever. We pretty much tell him what to do. That woman must have really worked on him to get him to meet her before […]
