Here's a fun story!

Today I went grocery shopping and realized in the checkout that the bus would be arriving at my stop in 15 minutes... and the French are not known for their quickness of service. By God's grace I got out with five minutes to spare so I put my cart back and quick stepped it to the bus. I was praying that it would be late. As I neared the street I saw it approaching so began running to the stop and rushed on. Then as we took off I saw another bus behind us... my bus (usually two buses don't stop at the same stop at the same time). So I asked the driver if his bus was also 504 and all I could make out from behind the glass behind him was, "You should check what number it is before you get on." So I rode an extra 20 minutes, around the other side of town, got off near the train station, walked 400m to the stop I needed and took the correct bus home.
Even after 2 months I still do these things, haha :)
