Since I'm a female just barely under the age of 55, I was required to get a pregnancy test before the surgery I had last week. I tried to tell them about the bus and how I've been riding for... oh... about 3 years now, and that seriously -- barring a true, honest-to-God, call the Vatican, miracle -- there was no reason for the test. At. All. but i had to get it done anyway...
No miracle there 
Still on the bus and expect to be for a long, long while

Yay, I'm on the germ-free bus! Technically still married, but no way in hell am I getting on that ride again. I never did like using public facilities.

Marriages that start this way, stepping over the bodies of loved ones as the giddy couple walks down the aisle, are not likely to last.

I'm not sure what the exact date of my last pre-bus excursion was, but it'll be two years for me in a couple of weeks.

Closest I got was with Steve 15 months ago. But he was wiener-withholding. He would do everything BUT that (including things that IMHO should happen MUCH later) because "intercourse changes things."
HOLD UP!!! I'm confused. Wouldn't your "actions" still disqualify you from riding the bus?? Or does it have to be actual intercourse?
Somebody please explain the exact qualifications necessary to ride the bus. Thank you!!
(I might be on the bus sooner than I thought. )

Hmm... riding that bus back seat for what seemed like a very VERY long time.
But now, I have decided that I am no longer a "Bus" rider. I am now driving my own motor home!
I do remain open to the possibility of sharing this global adventure drive with a romantically incline other. However, counting the weeks, months, and finally years of "Bus riding" kind of depresses me. So, I like the thought of being independent. Open to possibilities. And, not missing a second of life by and by. It is a different focus. A zest for full life that is open to opportunities and adventures. BUT, not so focused on my bus seat.
Know what I mean "Bus riders"?
