Three hours Tibetan rhythmic chanting with bells repeating over and over:

Ok I'm around 3/4 through. I drove Saturday from the sister Johnny DEPOT down the road, 178 and 166 routes. We don't do those routes from my regular depot where my (hurt) locker is. I'm guessing last week I only drove one day but would have to check my blog post. Mental note take quiche out of oven 615pm. Today I've had 155s and 199s. I found a discarded green collapsible chair at palm beach so brought it back to my utility vehicle on the 199 service. Only because I seem to have forgotten my blue collapsible chair on the soccer field yesterday. It was gala day we got three games in. Winning the first 1-0. My daughter is a star goal scorer and a playmaker on that team. I consider a playmaker someone who chases balls down and makes things happen, not just a territory holder. Another goal scorer, although he never scored yesterday and only scored one goal this season, turns out his father owns a fancy restaurant and cafe opposite the post office box address I have that I mentioned on Chris Salcedo's radio show (the postal address). This was around the time Millie and co announced the Afghanistan withdrawal. Coincidentally Millie is the babysitter's name and I'm seeing if I can get her to babysit in September. Anyway after our win, draw and loss we went to KFC nearby, I organised that, and had a group meal with the team. Pretty cool.
Sailing season starts in two weeks and yesterday's gala games were the last of the season. Just ran into two of the sailing guys that work for the club on weekends outside the depot. They were sitting in they car. They're young and sometimes catch a bus.
Ok ate that quiche and yes just checking last weekend I only drove bus Sunday which was after zee circus. Then I got paid like Thursday or Wednesday so that last Saturday I missed was what couldn't factor in my last payday. So last Sunday and this weekend and next Saturday factor into the next pay however I probably won't drive bus next Saturday so it'll be another like $1400 AUD for the three days worked. With the sunnier weather coming I probably will only drive bus one day per week.
They're saying climate change and global warming will be a big deal but I imagine if you go to the desert region between South Australia and Darwin, you wouldn't notice any of it.
Ok moments later, having specialled to palm beach from mona Vale I now am looking down the barrel of three more monotonous 199s. To manly and back then to manly then special empty to depot. That in itself will be 28 minutes drive, but obviously the advantage of specialling is not having to stop all the time. Still I find 199s tedious but it's part of being 'free', being strapped in and locked onto the road at all times, paying taxes for the prisoners to stay in jail. That's freedom.
Mañana I'll chill and go to Jewish Dan's and spray some poison, maybe pick up more leaves at Cummings empty house. Probably will return to Newcastle Wednesday. I love it there.
Ok moments later all done. The avl satellite tracking was momentarily offline so I skipped the last stop at manly wharf as no-one was on board and turned right at Sydney road and right on Condamine then veered off at Dee why for back roads back to Pittwater Rd then veered off at Narrabeen for more back roads later reconnecting near mona Vale hospital. Pittwater Rd is like something I will try to avoid as it can be incredibly monotonous.
It's still another 35/40 minutes drive home. As I drove a cab full time five years 12 hours non stop four times a week, I don't mind just driving around on weekends. The bus is spacious and comfortable anyway. One time a cop in Madrid Spain pulled me over for doing an illegal U turn. I was in a rental car with a girl from Washington state that was my first live in girlfriend.
I met an old man from Iowa today on the 155 to mona Vale golf course. He said he came to Australia in 1969, spurred on by the race riots in Chicago (in the late 60s) where I guess he was living. Puerto Rican and 'negroes' (this guy was white). That girl Mary from Washington state in Madrid was half Puerto Rican. The old Iowa man said he married an English lady from Newcastle England and she died fifteen years ago. He definitely seemed like over 80. Old.
Ok I'm up to level 528 on Royal Match which is a very fun phone app game. Struggling to get off the depot couch and Fox News. Must buy milk and bread from 711. Man there are a lot of 711s in Thailand, Bangkok. I remember that.
Just be good to me, 1983
