A Few Things

1. Bought a June bus pass yesterday from a pimply girl behind bullet-proof polymer.  I interrupted her discussion with two (hunky) security guards sitting in the booth with her.  Girl wasn't happy.  I told her what I would like to buy, plucked a $20 bill from my wallet and handed it to her, then continued to dig for the remaining $8.  Before I could retrieve it, however, she handed me the pass and some change.  Then she turned her back to me and continued her sad, moist conversation.  Confused, I walked away and looked at the pass.  It was an economy pass, only $12.  She either:  a) thought I was old; b) thought I was disabled; c) couldn't be bothered waiting for me to collect the remaining fare; d) took pity on me, thinking I didn't have any more money; e) was stupid; or f) didn't care.  Whatever it was, I can now ride all over the greater Tucson area for cheap.  Joy.
2. Joined a new singer/conductor pal for dinner last night. Drank too much wine, but I had a swell time visiting with him and his friends. If I had a table in the casita, I'd host a dinner to return the favor. But I guess we could just sit on the sofa and eat with our plates on our laps. [Note to self: nothing that requires much cutting on the plate.]
3. Had coffee at Rainbow Planet this morning with a guy I'd met only briefly through a mutual friend, when I lived in Tucson a few years ago.  Was cool.
4. Got the next disc of Torchwood in the mail from Netflix today and another coming tomorrow. I'm in love with this series.  The cannibalistic, serial-killing hick family episode scared the crap out of me. I hope there aren't really people out there like that. If there are, I hope they choke on a rib.
