Rock Collections

another warning:

if you compare the color of your friend's cat's fur to those black and brown shiny, smooth rocks that came in rock collections that you got when you were younger, your friend will, in fact, think you are a dork who collected rocks. which is true.

also the black and brown shiny smooth one was very pretty. and i like cats.

Warning: The G Bus Route is Long

if you get on the G bus on the wrong side of the street, the ride you thought was going to be 15 minutes long and go directly to the library will actually take you on an hour and a half bus tour of some back neighborhoods.

at a certain point as you get deeper into these neighborhoods you realize that there are fewer and fewer people on the bus... and once you reach the end of the route, you might get called out/pitied for getting on the bus going the wrong way.

on the bright side, if you are looking to befriend a bus driver, you will have a 45 minute span of bus ride where it is just the two of you, and you can talk about a large variety of topics.

Banana Chips

yesterday, i was wearing a tanktop and eating banana chips in the library in a corner nook.

i accidentally dropped one down my shirt, so i pull my shirt back a bit to find and have both my hands in my shirt looking for this crumb.

at this exact moment, random dude walks around the corner and i go into deer in headlights mode--stare, still with my hands in my shirt, not moving. he makes eye contact with me and i just stare back.

he glances at what i'm doing, makes a skeptical sort of face, and then walks off with raised eyebrows...

found it a half a second later. hooray, coordination!
