I am hiding in a tree
I'm a fragment of the crud
Feel it coarsing through your blood
As it's happening

I guess it's my turn to ask for vibes for a friend.  My best friend's husband, Steve, found out this past week that he has bladder cancer.  He will find out tomorrow when he has to go to Mayo in Rochester to have his bladder removed.  They will also take the prostate and all the lymph nodes in the area, hopefully they will get it all.    The fascinating thing is, they will then make a new bladder out of a portion of his intestine...isn't it just amazing what they can do?

Anyway, vibes would be very much appreciated.  He has 4 cancer survivors in his family, so we're hoping that's a good omen.

~~~SUPER VIBES FOR CILLA'S BEST FRIEND's HUSBAND STEVE!!~~~

Going to write for a little bit and then head back downstairs for bed.

Good night!

I'm surprised we have ANY posts, what with this mad obsession with Facebook.  Of course, had many of you actually read Murder At The Grove, you would have known all about Facebook.

I have a Facebook account and just got some new friends today!  But I don't go there very often...at all.

Well...

I'm glad I got to the bus pick-up spot early. From what I could tell, the "12:30" bus left at 12:10. It was full, sold out, etc.  And it looks like this driver is going to go ahead and have this "1:00" bus leave at 12:30. This bus isn't full yet, but the driver is making sure that everyone puts their bags on top instead of on their seats. I'm guessing the trip from DC to NYC will be packed. We shall see...

My friend, Mike, had warned me that this particular bus line can get a bit unpredictable at times, and I guess it is.  And another friend had said that there were quite a number of Chinese, Korean, Thai, etc., workers who make regular treks between Richmond and NYC. They work here in Richmond during the week, and then head back to NYC on the weekends to see their families. And vice versa.

Thankfully, this particular bus does not have that "not-so-fresh" smell like my Richmond-bound one did.  ;)

Hmmm... The bus driver seems to be doing some creative seat shuffling and assigning.  Too bad I don't understand Chinese. Hmmm....

Hmmm...  So, "Tony", my driver, who is "nice guy", just asked me to move to another seat so that his "cousins" could sit together. -And then he started joking with some other "cousins" about someone else's ticket... "chicken an' broccoli, chicken an' broccoli...  Ha, ha, HA!!"

Hmmm...

Well, I do have to say that this is quite the "happy" bus. And it really does look like Tony has a bunch of family members - or at least close friends - on board. And they are all "happy" too.  And by "happy", I mean talking and chatting and laughing. So, let's see if they quiet down once we start moving... Which should be soon. I hope.

And a group of "regulars" just boarded, all NYU students. "Tony" even greeted them with, "I thought you never made it.". ;)

Facebook...it's a nice "alternate" place to go for meeting new folks who don't have places like HainesHisWay and FilmScoreMonthly, etc.  It's also fun to look up people from the past to see if they, too, are seeking similar connections.

Sad to say that many folks I'd like to connect with don't have accounts.
