All three were different stops on Columbia. One driver saw me was as he went by and stopped further down the street. There are too many large trucks in front of the buses and "hidden" stops. I feel like I need a flag to wave the buses down. In the last month I have been standing at bus stops and had the bus drive right by me as if I was invisible.

The second you light the cigarette, the bus will finally show up. Got another one, from the days of me being a smoker. The second you light the cigarette, the bus will finally show up.

You could probably dedicate a whole blog to them. But, to be fair, I noticed similar effects when bicycling: cross streets will be clear until you're at the intersection and lights turn red just as you arrive (this one also happens when driving). It goes on and on. Fortunately, I try to keep positive and not become bitter, angry and jaded. I’m sure we all have these stories. You could probably dedicate a whole blog to them.
