the file cabinet is now a complete mess. while stripping the paper off of it, i also managed to strip
big chunks of the metal gray coating. i think it was because i was only using soap and water. for some reason it
didn't even occur to me to use turpentine or some other thinner. but, now i needed to paint the thing.
but first i wanted to primer it. so we had to go the store. we are always at the store. while we were
out we decided to go to target too. we are always shopping. the insanity has got to stop.
mystery bus 13
something isn't right here
on our way back from the store we saw the mystery bus, or at least what i insist is the mystery bus.
there is this bus stop across the street from the shopping center and every time we drive by bus
13 is just sitting there. sometimes there's not a driver in there, and when there is he is usually reading.
sometimes there's no one around it. and other times it's full of people just sitting there.
but it's always there. my theory is that it's some sort of shuttle that waits for people. but it looks
like a regular city bus. one day i'm going to take it and see where it goes.
pick up stix
bicycle dinner
when we got home i spray painted the file cabinet and then we worked on the yard. the sun is setting
a lot earlier these days so it's hard to keep track of time. but i guess it's better to think it's later
than it really is, than to think it's earlier than it really is. around sunset randall and i biked to the grocery
store to get something for dinner. when we got there we changed our minds and decided we didn't feel
like cooking. so we picked up some pick up stix instead. randall ordered while i waited with the bikes
(we didn't feel like going thru the locking up rigamarole), then he came back out to wait with me.
we thought we'd just go back inside in a few minutes, but the lady at the counter actually brought it
out to us. i thought that was nice of her.
