Written on the way home....

What a day!! And it's not even over yet! Left the house about 1230 give or take a few. Walked to the bus and it showed up when I did. Then missed my stop!! I was 3 or 4 stops past it when I realized it
and got off to transfer back the other way. Got to Bellamy and the bus took forever so that when I was 2 stops away from getting off at the GO, the train was pulling away. This is the train that would make me get there- to Pickering- an hour early. Normally the train would get me there for 249 and the bus I needed to get me there on time left at 301. If I had caught the earlier train then I could have waited for the 301 bus with no worries. Didn't happen that way. Caught the 232 train after waiting the hr for it. Now yesterday, for those that didn't know, there was a freight train that derailed at pickering stn. Although it didn't block the GO at all it still had to run slower going through there. And there's a delay so that the train sat on the tracks at a red light for almost 10 min. I almost RAN off the train to find the bus platform. Found the bus and it was pulling away as I'm about 2 platforms away. Luckily when I waved it down he stopped. I was the only rider LOL

GOT HERE and had the interview. Seemed to go very well. I find out by not next week bit the end of the next one the wk of the 12th. Now to find my way home. Currently standing at the bus stop not knowing when the next one arrives. Been here 20 min and my back is killing me. Could take another 30 or so depending on when rush hr service starts for this route. Things seem accesible here at least-- as long as you don't mind waiting aroung for them. I'm getting my licence and the car fixed as soon as we can. This is ridiculous. Ok going to stand here and read. Ttys

Ok, home now. Pat and Larry, the owner's of this business, passed me in their cars while I was waiting for the bus. Probably about 5 min after I signed off on this the first time. Pat stopped and told me to get in the car. She drove me to the GO station. We had a nice talk in the car and then when she dropped me off she said: "I just wanted to tell you that you were our favourite today. Wanted to make sure I told you." *fingers are crossed tightly*
