The helpful man

OK, so, I got off work at 6 am on Friday. Went to my brother's house to walk and feed the dog. Tried to get some sleep, but the dog wanted to play, and wouldn't leave me alone. I think I managed to get about an hour. Back to my place, and I'm awake all day.

Off to work at 8:45pm, get off work at 6 am. Bus fiasco. As in, during the half hour I was standing at the bus stop, 6 buses should have driven by. None did. NONE. When one finally did drive by, he actually drove by me, and then noticed there was someone at the stop.

Went to Elle's house to help her move. Thankfully, she let me crash in her rather comfy bed for an hour and a half before we started the moving. She also had EVERYTHING packed up already, except for the bed and refrigerator. This is one of those times where her CDO comes in handy. (Yes, I have to put it in alphabetical order, just to mess with her.) We got everything put into the truck in about an hour. Mostly because there was 7 of us. That made it pretty easy.

Off to the Ferry!

We go to Bremerton, and I am in awe of her new place. And it's cheap, too! A 2 bedroom, 1 bath, HOUSE in downtown, 10 minute walk from the ferry, for $900. I almost pay that much for my shitty little apartment in West Seattle!

Unloading took even less time, and we only had 6 people for the unload. Then we had pizza, bullshitted about politics, and got back on the ferry.

Went back to my brother's house to feed and walk the dog. Back to my house, but with another bus disaster. I thought I'd be slick and try to work the bus system like my own personal driver, but didn't remember that it's Saturday, and apparently, some buses just don't run at times that I want them to. So, instead of walking a quarter mile to catch a bus that went a block from my place, I ended up taking one two miles out of the way, and then starting to walk home, and then waiting a half hour for a bus because they were running late. There were 5 people on the bus.

How the hell can you be running late, when you don't have a shitload of people, and there's barely any traffic?

So, I left my brother's place at 4:15, and got home at 6. All because I didn't want to walk a quarter mile to wait for 20 minutes for one bus, and ended up walking 2 miles anyway, and waited 30 minutes for a different bus. Bad decision on my part.

Got home, took a nap, and went to work. Yet another bus debacle. Another bus didn't show up, so I had to walk to a different stop, and the buses there were all late, as well. So, I didn't get to work early as usual. I managed to make it there on time, though.
