Sunrise like a nosebleed
I'm fighting to keep my eyes open here at work this morning, so the purpose of this post is primarily to keep me awake. My apologies.
Something semi-interesting happened this morning on the way to work. I take the metro-bus to and from downtown every day to avoid commuter traffic and to save money on gas. Plus, the company pays for my bus pass so it's really a win-win situation. Anyhow, on this morning's drive our driver hit a truck. It wasn't anything serious. There was a line of cars waiting at a red light to turn from Kingwood Dr to 59 South, and the bus came over the bridge a little too fast, slammed on the brakes and rear-ended a white Ford F-150. Luckily it was a tough truck. It pulled over real quick, the dude hopped out and checked his rear fender, then waved the bus on because there was no damage. Most of the people in the bus were worried we were gonna have to wait for the driver to do paperwork business and be late for work, but it didn't happen. Homeboy in the truck is the lucky one though because he gets to tell people "I got hit by a bus this morning." Lucky jerk.
Earlier I had to leave my office and walk around for a little bit to wake myself up some. I went down in the tunnel and discovered it connects to some mall-like building across the street. The locals call it the Houston Center. They've got a food court and everything and I noticed there's a Chic-Fil-A in there so I think I'm gonna make that my official lunch stop for next week. I'm obviously gonna finish out this week at Quizno's. Yesterday I got one of their Mesquite Chicken with Bacon sammiches and it was tasty. For today's finale, I'm thinking about going with the Traditional.
Ok, I've killed about 12 minutes. Back to the wonders of Microsoft Excel.
