The bus was on time. I got on the #20. It was driven by the stern looking woman. The female bus driver also got on at my stop. The two were talking about which days they wanted to do overtime on. Saturday and Friday both seemed like popular days. It is the holiday season and I can imagine that the MTA would want to step up the number of buses you see on the street.

PROBLEMS WITH A GIFT FOR LINDA: Linda, the woman in my group I have to be a Secret Santa for this year listed candles as the number one thing she wanted. The problem is I don’t know if she wants them scented or unscented.

After that she listed some kind of decorative designer glass slippers. I lost the piece of paper that she wrote the list on. So I’m not entirely sure of the brand name that she was interested in getting. I think it may have been Vitton?

The last item on her list were gift certificates. The problem with this is that it doesn’t list which stores she’d like to get gift certificates from.

The only way I can think of solving this issue is giving her a gift certificate for the Yankee Candle Shop. The only problem with this solution is that I’ve heard of the store but I’m not sure where they are located at in Maryland. I believe you can also order things from them over the internet. If this is so, I’m not sure if she owns a computer.

WHAT I’M WEARING: I have on a purple Henley, black slacks, and black leather and suede shoes. No jeans = business casual day at work.
