The wheels on the bus go round and round
Sep. 26th, 2005 04:30 pmFor 18 months every afternoon I walk to the bus stop. My bus is the only bus I have ever seen there. So when the bus pulls up, I get on. Those of you not overly medicated can see where this is going...
Today is the day of the new bus routes.... yep, there's a new bus stopping at my bus stop. Yep, I got on the wrong bus.
But, it was really kind of a fun adventure instead of a big oh-fuck. The not-my-bus took me to downtown Bellevue to the transit mall.
Once before I toyed with the idea of taking the bus from work to downtown Bellevue but it was too complicated and now I can't remember why I wanted to go there but I know now, it's very very easy and fast.
They had a bunch of transit people there to help idiots like me. So I got off the bus, found one and asked him which bus to downtown Seattle. He told me the bus number. I waited 10 minutes and the bus pulled up. It took a way different route which was very interesting viewing and pretty soon it landed me at exactly the same place my regular bus does. Maybe 20 minutes more total.
Easy peasy. Bus adventure. I was in no hurry. There's not even a baseball game today. The weather is beautiful - cool and beautiful.
On the down side, there is lots of good shopping in downtown Bellevue. Now that I know getting there and getting home from there is so easy, this could cost me. Hmmmm
