A list about random things on the bus

Went to work.  Made a giant email list.  Watered the garden.  Couldn't eat enough biscuits!  (The biscuits were delicious!!!)  Read through some text.  It was work.  Tomato soup for lunch because I didn't have anything else of substance in my cupboard.  I have to go shopping one of these days.

After work, I went over to turn in my time card at the Marlyebone campus, but the office was closed.  So that's a job for Monday.  Then I called Oscar to meet me in Russell Square for the opening ceremonies for the Bloomsbury Festival.  He was like "What?  No, I don't feel like going out.  What museum do you want to see tomorrow?"  So I said "Okay, see you when I get back and we'll talk about weekend plans.  I want to go to this Bloomsbury Festival again just to see what it's like.  There's an Asian Market and a writer's workshop tomorrow.  I want to check those out."
"Writer's workshop?  I'm not much of a writer.  That's more your thing."
"It's more than a writing festival.  Like I said, Asian Market.  We'll talk when I get home."
"Okay.  See you then."

There was a parade of lights and very loud drums playing the same rhythm over and over again.  I joined in the parade eventually and was too shy to ask if anyone wanted to share their stick of lights.  But I bobbed to the beat nonetheless and had a good time.  At night.  In London.  Alone. 

Surprisingly, I wasn't scared.  I know how to defend myself, and I took the bus all the way to my front door, so that's good.  Big City, you don't scare me at night!  Mwahaha!  Just try to mess with me, I dare ya!
(but no, please don't)

And now a real treat, an excerpt from my personal journal because I made a list of cool things I saw while riding the bus today.  This encompasses the whole day so there's a mixture of things that happened on the way to work, on the way to Marlyebone, and on the way to Russell Square and then back home:

- Just saw a truck with Babcock written on it.  Makes me smile.  ^_^
- Pigeon lady in Euston Square right outside Euston Station.  Wore a bubishka and had a big suitcase next to her.  ^_^
- Accidentially read "repressing" instead of "representing" on a sign explaining the union Unison.
- Building near British Library with people as columns.  (people = statues)  Major headaches all around.
- Woman on street with gorgeous red scarf near Russell Square.  I want that scarf for mom.  I think she'll like it.
- Far guy wearing Packers sweatshirt.  Noticed when he was leaving.
- Old bus going other way at Holborn Station stop.  Made me smile.
