Short but sweet.

Tonight, I worked until 11ish, so the buses weren't running as frequently. I really didn't have to wait long for the first bus to come-maybe a couple of minutes. What was really nice thought, was thatI didn't have to wait for the second bus at all. It came right away. That makes a long night seem less long because you aren't standing around waiting for your bus. So today's favourite thing is when you don't have to wait long for public transportation.

Probably going to regret writing about this TODAY...

I am probably not going to enjoy the fact that I chose today to write about this later on, but what can you do? (Not write about it, but I have already decided against that,) Anyway, the buses are back on the road, which is great because it allows me to be less of a shut-in. I have much more freedom in terms of when I do certain things because I don't have to plan in advance to drive my sister to work so that I have the car. Today was the first time I rode the bus in nearly two months. It was nice because a) I didn't have to park downtown, 2) I didn't have to drive downtown, c) my sister didn't have to pick me up (She drove me there though. Thank you, Colette!) and 4) it was free! Yes indeed, I didn't have to pay to ride the bus, and probably won't have to for the rest of the week or so. One of the few benefits of the strike. I was very excited yesterday when I kept seeing buses on the road. It made me realize how much I had missed seeing them.
