Allyn Beth Brown on the Magic Bus

I have a feeling this is going to be a long day. I was running a little late this morning so instead of walking up the fifteen minute hilly hike to the Bart station I decided to catch the bus. Right as I approached the bus stop I saw the bus pulling away. Usually there are two buses in a row. Unfortunately the one that just passed was “usually” the second one. Accepting I’d been defeated I contemplated my next action… A little lazy voice inside my head said wait for the next bus. Then my counter impatient voice said if you run you just might make it. I knew it was surely a leap but I just hate waiting.

So I started running. Just my luck, a team of construction workers were directly across the street. Unaware of what exactly they were saying, another voice said hey maybe one of them are hot ;) Haha! I kept running. As my legs started to give sure enough another bus went by. Stuck between the two bus stops I cringed. Basically I walked the rest of the way and accepted that I probably wouldn’t catch the early shuttle this morning. Ironically I still made it.

Final Note — Listen to the first voice that pops in your head.
