Of Tardiness

I missed my bus to work last Saturday and had to pay $9.60 for a cab. That's $9.60 more than what I normally pay for my bus fair.

Today I set my watch five minutes ahead of time in order to trick myself into being punctual. It worked. I managed to make it to the bus terminal well before the bus did. I even managed to grab a cup of coffee for the bus ride.

As the bus took off through downtown I settled in my seat with the warm feeling of having achieved something significant. Along the way I saw the apartment that I was going to move into in a few months' time. I hadn't noticed this before although I've taken the bus to work for the past two weeks. Funny. All the same I thought, 'How convenient. I'll have to make a note of the bus stop and the schedule.' I peered through the bus window to look at the street name and noticed that we were on a different route.

That's when I realized that I was on the wrong bus.
