Nice Pace

I like my new hours, they seem more natural for me. Its a nicer pace and the money is a little better too. I had 3 airport runs in a row to start the day, all 3 really cool good tipping people. The 1st one was a lady going to Calgary for 1 day and then home to San Fransisco.
Then I picked up a very nice woman coming home to cold rainy Boston from Florida. She wasn't very talkative but thats cool.
Next I went back to Logan and picked up a young lady who works for Titleist, the golf ball people. Before today I didn't know that the balls are made in New Bedford. Did you? She is originally from Foxboro and we found out we know a couple of the same people. Her mom actually sold the land that Bob Kraft needed to construct the new stadium access road.
I stopped for a couple slices and a diet Pepsi at Town Pizza and went down to check out the Plaza. That's one of the places we go fishing for fares when the phone isn't ringing.
Steve and Jeff were already there and then Jake swung over too so I went over to the X (logan express bus stop) and talked to Bert for a few minutes. Billy gave me a nice $20 run from Randolph to East Braintree but the dude was low on cash and asked me to drop him off when the meter hit 21.50 but I said hey no worries. Whats an extra block or 2.
Then I sat in the T (subway station) for about an hour playing sudoku on my cell phone, did just one more 9 dollar job and wrapped it up at about 10pm. I could have hung in for a while
but it seemed like the rush was over.
Did a little quick shopping on the way home, needed some t.p. among other things. Oh well, who cares. Good night and good luck.
