This is the cause of me spending 45 mins on a bus from the bus station to campus* yesterday evening. It certainly puts my massive delay in perspective.

I'd feel bad about stressing about my delay if it hadn't nearly induced a full fledged hyperventalating throwing up panic attack. Anyway, like I said, puts things in perspective. Ta to [livejournal.com profile] benc for talking to me for 20 mins on a phone to stop me from doing such things.

Clearly busses don't love me very much. Took me 40 mins to get to town from campus this morning including 10 mins completely stationary on Whitstable Road. Also had to wait an extra 15 mins today when lightly loaded unibus drove straight past me at the Westgate bus stop without stopping. Weird. Wish I could afford to park in town. Busses are clearly Teh Sucks.

Got wet earlier from being outside in rain. Socks and jeans still wet.

Cold now.

Makes a change from too hot I guess ;)

I totally understand the triggering thing. I hate being on buses when they divert or stuck for ages in traffic.

I have been on buses which diverted with no warning and where the driver refused to stop for ages claiming he was getting back onto the route... Conveniently missing the 2 mile stretch which had my stop in it. I don't understand why when they divert they can't stop, annouce they are diverting and give people the chance to GET OFF before being driven places they don't know *shudder*...

At least trams are stuck on a line, so limited in their diversionary capacity.

Hugs and cups of tea!
