Ok so usually if I need to run an errand I hop in my car. Now I take the bus. I tried to think of who could help me so I wouldn't have to. But I reminded myself Candice you opted to take the bus, now own up to it. So I bundled myself up and head out the door. This is Saturday November 27th. So I got a ride to the bus stop from the neighbor who was leaving his house and going up the street. From here I went across town to the bank I knew would be safest, why? It's in a supermarket and well lit. Not bad I got there in 20 minutes and as soon as I got off the bus mta police were right there. I must admit I was slightly intimidated by the male representation on the bus, yes people I was the only female on the bus, but hey I put on my NY street smarts and made it do what it do, lol. From here since the market is at a major public transportation center called Mondawmin, I took the subway to Charles Center to Citibank where I made my last bank stop. By this time one of my homies was on his way back in town to a party at his cousins and so I walked up Charles Street to the Super Fresh to get groceries while I waited for him to pick me up. Figured since I had a car I better use the opportunity to get groceries before the party that I was now going to. It was a great walk. The cold air invigorated me.
It reminded me of former NY days and I just relished in each sensation. The wind blowing by, cars driving by, conversation, and the meeting of a friend somewhere to eat at someone's studio apt, were reminiscent of all of the things I miss in NY. The dinner was great by the way. And although, I was a little cold, but what else would I be its winter people, I saw the good in it all I got it done and on my own. This blog is about the positive. Anyway you know what to say...
Next Stop.......
