Friday, September 5: Hey A Hazy Rhyme in Tyme

Fairmount

Good morning seekers of serenity and solitude. Today is Friday I got paid today. Time to pay down debts built up from the last week and a half.

 It's also time to help somebody at work and try to get them together. It's time to to sniff the roses and avoid the thorns.

Trolley from 22nd to 19th

link in my recovery. Anyhow I hung out for a while and I'm taking a cab to work so I'm not insanely late. It is payday

so I can take advantage of that fact.

Afterwards I hung out a coffee since La Columbe is still under renovation as you can see. 

Old City

Work was really BUSY !! OMG!!

But I think I got a lot done. I stayed till 6 and then took the

It makes up for not being able to go to New York slightly.

My Trip to Burlington NJ

I am taking the train to the South Burlington stop. It's a pretty comfortable train actually.

Camden Bus Station

It's  pretty hot and nasty out here right now and I am glad I'm going to an informal establishment because I'm just in a T-shirt and pants.

The Destination

Well is 10:18 PM and I was just informed the little gig that I was going to at the big shots bar apparently

The Riverline Stop I Got Off

 Well there's a pleasant enough night that's for sure.

Lovely Route 130

The diner food was not that great. It was  passable barely. I was dropped off at the Westmont

Driving to the Diner

station of the PATCO high-speed line. I'm taking it to the end of the line and then taking the bus

maps to see if the buses were running. I got very lucky I caught the 9 bus to 22nd St. and the 7 bus 

showed up right after it. That was pretty damn good for 1:37 AM.
