got home around 830p. my lawn mower guy greeted me before i got in the door, wanting to get paid for mowing while i was gone. took about a half hour for my kitties to come out and welcome me home. got my computer set back up 1st thing, back online by 930p. bee-ull (bill) is a bald guy who i travelled with, he got on in fort pierce and was going to toledo. i bought my tickets a month ago, bill bot his thursday, and he was dismayed to find he had to wait for a later bus, a layover of 5:25 at orlando, for example--perhaps the greyhound booking system thought the timely buses were full. he told the driver about his schedule and mine, and the driver got his changed: i saved him over 10 hours of wait time! after i get off the bus, bill says, he continues to columbus, then after a long wait, catching a bus to cincinnati, then after another long wait, riding another bus to toledo, arriving 8-ish tomorrow morning. apparently greyhound doesnt go from columbus directly to toledo. i asked bill earlier about shaving his head, because i can't imagine liking shaving so much that one chooses to shave about 4 times more area. he said yes he lathers his head up about once a week and it takes about an hour but sometimes he treats himself to a barber for a stropped razor shave which seems to last longer.
