bus grumpiness/BEMF

I usually try to attend the dance class that's offered as part of the BEMF. The timing fit with my clinic schedule, everything looked good, and I cancelled a different appointment I had made for this morning to make it work. Except that the 8AM bus didn't come. At all. I called Arthur ti see whether he could track it on his phone, and its transponder signal just wasn't there. The 8:34 bus was pretty much on time, but I know from experience that I couldn't have made it to Newbury Street from Lexington Center in under an hour, so I walked back home, disgruntled. If the T had let us know in advance that that bus wouldn't exist we (me, the 7 other people at my stop waiting for it, all the others along the route) could have taken an earlier bus. That is a service for the future, I guess.
I am still planning to attend the 3:30 concert at First Lutheran tomorrow. I'm sad that I can't also squeeze in the live music-backed Sarah Bernhardt "Elizabeth I" film screening tomorrow morning, but I will be putting patients through their paces from 7 AM until 1 PM, so I can't be at Suffolk University Theater in time.
