tales from an ordinary world

2001-04-18

In my dream, the buses weren't taking passengers. They circled the bus stop and just drove off. I don't know where it was that I needed to go, but I started walking.

A phone call, just as l was leaving for work. She was trying to reach a friend. I wasn't sure if it was a bad line or if it sounded like she was upset, but I no longer knew her well enough to probe (when did I ever ?). I made pointless small talk while I searched for addresses. At the end of the call, she mentioned the word Funeral. Aha. I walked to the tramstop, replaying the situation in my head and wondering if there'd been any points where I could've done it better.
