There's an app for that

[.livejournal.com]

Even though I have my driver's license, the bus/train is my major mode of transportation. I don't get metro's updates schedules sent in the mail anymore and hoping to find some on the bus is a crapshoot.

For all that I have my usual bus line schedule practically memorized (it leaves the depot pretty much on the hour, every hour), I'm surrounded by at least 3 other bus lines and I don't know their schedule too well, or it changes too much to bother memorizing.

Well, I was on Los Angeles' Metro site and they have an app for Android and iPhones. My new phone? It's an Android! Of course I search for the app and download it. I can go exploring now LOL

If I miss my usual bus, I can look up when other buses on alternate routes will be leaving and if I'll make my connecting bus.

This app was one of my better choices in downloads lol

also, I have access to my e-mail again. I don't know what's going on with yahoo, but I've never had this many problems in such a small time frame.

Friday: Holidays

[kim47.livejournal.com]

Hey folks, kim47 here, and I've had a great time hosting this week!

The final theme of the week is holidays. Weekend getaways, Christmas with the parents, anything holiday-themed goes.

As always, remember the rules:

No more than five prompts in a row.

No more than three prompts in the same fandom.

No spoilers in prompts.

If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space!

Prompts should be formatted as follows:
Fandom, Character+/Character, Prompt

Some examples to get the ball rolling...

Doctor Who, the Doctor, he really does have a Christmas list

Suits, Mike/Harvey, surprise weekend getaway

Avengers, Thor + the team, he takes extremely well to traditional Midgardian holidays

Enjoy!

tag=holidays

I...bit the bullet

I...bit the bullet

First thing's first: DHS BEAT OXNARD 31-21!!! Marlin didn't get to play, but he got to suit up

( suited up )

( just us girls )

Back to after the game. While waiting for Marlin to come out of the locker room, I finally asked my sister if I (and my cat) could stay with her while our parents are away and the apartment is being worked on. She said yes! however, Marlin is allergic to my cat, so I'm going to need to find someone to take her for 4.5-5 weeks. I'm already freaking out about this. The longest I've been away from her is the 10 days or so while I was traveling to/from Florida, but then my parents were there, and we were still in the apartment. And it's like hard to explain, I don't think anyone else should have to watch her because she's my cat. It's just going to be weird without her. I don't now. But my sister said we'd talk about details later. I would also assume this means what can be done about the cat. I'm sure I can always ask Lora, but my cat's never been around other animals and I don't want her freaking out and/or being too much trouble for Lora and her family. *sighs* eta I did a quick search and found that Downey Veterinary Hospital near my bank, has animal boarding. It wouldn't hurt to see how much it would cost, right? Probably a lot, but I need to know in case it becomes necessary.

For tomorrow, Anastacia asked if I could go over to her place and dye her hair. I said I'd have to ask if I could get dropped off. She said that if I can, she'd take me home. Well, dad's going to be gone from 7-2 or 3 pm, so I can't be dropped off. Option 2, take the bus and have her to pick me up at the stop. I sent her a text and she said she could do that. So tomorrow morning I'll be leaving at 9:50am and getting picked up at the bus stop roughly an hour later. She wanted me at her place at 11 am. This works out. I hope I'm back home by 5. I like going there for the free cable, but sometimes she annoys me.
