TV night again

My alarm went off at 10:00 and I turned it off and slept til 12:00. Finally got up and had breakfast and coffee. Took a shower and dressed.

Before I left to go to mashfanficchick's, I got my Halloween decorations out of the front closet, and I switched the Wallflower I was using in the bathroom, a goldfish, ith the one I have for Halloween, an owl.,

Then I left the apartment and found the mailman was there filling the mailboxes, so I waited for him. Eventually he asked my apartment, and gave me my mail which I put away in the apartment. I thanked him and then I left.

Took the bus, there were hoards of school kids just getting out of school by then, and a cranky lady on the 44 bus yelling at two kids who were sitting in front seats, which are marked as "Please give this seat to the elderly or disabled". I ignored it.

Got to mashfanficchick's, and we hung out for a few hours, then had a snack of cheese, crackers, and pepperoni. Ze gave me some bananas that ze was getting rid of. They are still good but so soft that ze doesn't like the texture. So I had a banana too.

At 7:00 I Teamed the FWiB from my phone, until just before 911. Then at 8:00 we watched it. Pretty good episode.

At 8:30 uring the commercials I called Middle Brother. He was quite excited, they had a Halloween party, a bit early, but he enjoyed it.

Then at 9:00 the new 911: Nashville. I like the rescue stuff, but it is awfully soapy.

After that ze turned on the Mariners/Blue Jays ball game and we watched that while we had dinner. Big bowls of salad, and shrimp cocktail. Delicious.

Finally I Ubered home, and here I am.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. Fun TV.

3. Halloween is coming.

4. Shrimp.

5. Middle Brother well.

Sleepy day and anger at the MTA

I woke up a bit before 10:00, and remembered that I was supposed to have a therapy session, so I didn't go back to sleep then. My therapist texted and I said to give me 10 minutes, then got ready and went out to the living room. We had our session, and I thought about going right back to bed but decided to eat breakfast first. So I did that, and even had coffee, but I felt so drowsy that I went back to bed, and went back to sleep.

I slept for hours, got up at 2:00something. Then I puttered on the computer for awhile, and finally took a shower and dressed.

By then it was 4:00. I put up some Halloween decorations, including one on the front door, and then puttered on the computer until 5:00 when I went to the Bronx for my meeting.

Did the nonsense of having to get the 25 first, and then got the 50 to the Bronx. As usual I had pizza first, and then went to my meeting. It was a bit smaller than usual but good. M drove me to the bus stop and I got the 50 just fine.

Then we got to the stop for the 25, 31st and Linden. I got out and checked my MTA app for the time the next 25 was coming. It said 23 minutes! So I checked my Moovit app, which said one was scheduled in 5 minutes. So I waited about 7 minutes. It didn't come.

So I checked the MTA app again, and it said at that point 15 minutes. So I said screw it and walked. And I beat the bus to 35th and Linden where I would normally have gotten off. I am pissed at the MTA. It's too far to walk comfortably and I don't like the dark walk at that time of night past a pool hall.

Anyway, I got home, and by that time I had to use the bathroom so bad I nearly peed my pants.

Then I Teamed the FWiB, and had my good humor restored. We talked for 45 minutes, then I fed the pets and started here.

Tomorrow is the day of the No Kings protests. I am not going to one and I feel very bad about that, but I said I would be the speaker at my meeting tomorrow already. So that's that.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. My meetings and the people there.

3. Pizza.

4. Halloween decorations up.

5. Naps.

6. Bed and reading soon.

Edited to add: Two things. Walked through Frank Bee's costume store after my pizza, just for fun. And texted with the Kid, who is fine.
