Wednesday, September 14: Late Day @ Ben Franklin Bridge

Today was the day I could not get my ass moving anywhere. I didn’t even leave the house till about 330 

and to pay my ticket but they close at 3:30 which you know I guess you can’t afford to pay them till five or 430. Anyhow after I did that I saw Pat had a little bit to eat and got one thing done today. That thing 

was cleaning out the freezer and getting rid of all the ice  that was all over my freezer. What’s in it with your chores chores and I thought it might be but 

it’s something. I decided then that I would get out of the house and go to Ben Franklin Bridge. Every so often I go there maybe once every two years or so but I’m feeling extra depressed

 in just wanna overlook something. Anyhow and it being a perfect day for it because it was clear skies mild temperatures with a nice breeze and 

nice scenery and sunset. The next thing you know it I was taking half decent pictures and realized I was in the mood to go to a meeting so that’s what I did. I really 

did do that. Course I talked on the phone and did my usual mental gymnastics but that’s the way it is that’s life I live right now. Anyhow tomorrow
I have a meeting I’m gonna go to the union hall maybe Yoga and maybe a meeting during the day then I have a late night meeting and then I do one of my errands that I have dedicate myself 

to and that’s what happens. There’s gonna be no long-distance Amtrak because there’s a threat of a  rail strike not by Amtrak but by the big train companies 

and their employees. Suppose they don’t get breaks between lunch woo hoo. Well I went to the meeting and I was about 15 minutes late but the meeting was pretty good. 

I end up catching a 21 bus and it was a beautiful thing. I got home ate leftovers 

and watch a Videos mostly. Marsha spent another nice day out in 

the neighborhood. Issac Shama Lu. I was wondering how the voice text 

with say that last little breeze. It’s something I made up in my head

 and didn’t know how it was spelled. Anyhow, I’m hoping to get myself up 
and out of the house before the afternoon hats. I do have a union meeting at 19th and Spring Garden Street but I would show up live. I’m wondering if they serve food but anyway that’s it

Saturday, October 24: Visiting Bob in East Falls and Other Stuff

Sunrise This Morning

After a pretty wild set of dreamed last night I woke up to a really nice sunrise once again here in jolly old Fairmount. I got all my clothes took stuff down

V. Lenin to Darth Vader

and headed out to catch the 48 bus. There was

Next Door Building a Deck

no detour. The bus told me that the detour is an effective on the weekend. I'm certainly glad that it isn't raining like I thought it might've been. I'm now walking up third Street to meet Larry

Here Comes Some Rain

@Starbucks. I'm not going to have a coffee since I'm not even

It's Almost Holloween

hours ago. I guess I'm going to go home and maybe take a nap after the meeting because I'm feeling I'm

The Dandelion

going to be ired. Yes it's a cold day outside in Philadelphia while waiting

tup in line for Starbucks trying to think if there's any events during

The Dandelion

the day. There is an event tonight that Larry would like me to go to. Come to

Posing for a Shot

think of it, get together with Bob after the meeting. It's now 11:44 AM I am not on top of Larry's roof deck in his condo right get a skyline view of the church steeple the Ben Franklin Bridge and the

Delaware river. Most folks appear to be busy with their own

Ben Franklin Bridge

activities. Bob hasn't checked in yet. It's very sunny outside.

View of 2nd Street from Room

We decided to come and relax and watch movies. We're gonna check out Larry's Netflix.

I convinced Larry to watch Fargo. He wasn't that interested but I liked it. His wife went out sailing in

Fargo!!

Delaware since it's the last weekend of sailing. I didn't help Blair move a couple things up in his attic and

took down a pet cage so I can put it away. I had a yogurt and a banana since I got a little wee bit hungry.  I am now on the 48 heading home. When I get

Stepping on the Bus Lane

home I'm planning a nap and a shower. Next is an arts

Here Comes the 48

culture festival at the art alliance. It's at 18th St. between Locust and Spruce. I first had to get a nap

because I was so tired. Well that nap helped out that's for certain. And then  I got up and talked to

Sharon after she finished your haircut for her friend. I also got a quick trim

Sharon @ Work

of the hair as well. Well I thought

Heading to Bob's

I could go to Bob's hang out and then take the train back to Center City to meet Larry and Veronica.

Bad Parkway Traffic

That didn't work out. It all started with the bad traffic at the parkway. I ended up catching the Chestnut

Nice View of Center City

 Broken-Down Bus

Bob's and he lives really close to Nadine. Nadine lives on a little street called Conrad. I'm hoping we can

get together tonight it's about 746 I'm knocking to be able to go downtown in time. Larry just told me

message. I need to eat soon because it's 7:54 PM. Well we ended up going to a place called Murphy's.
