Well, I got myself on the bus today. I would have loved to walk as it was a beautiful Seattle day with blue skies and sunshine, however, it was bloody freezing!! Yeah, I said bloody...sometimes I feel like being British!
I get on the bus (it is no surprise that I didnt miss it) and sit down and I gather that it might be a normal day on the bus. Normal in this case is obviously a relative term. All of a sudden I hear a man's voice talking. Super...a dude on his cell phone. Seriously, I just left work where I was on the phone all day...can I please have some peace and quiet! Rule breaking is never tolerated, but it was def not appreciated today. So this guy is yammering on and starts talking about doctor visits and second opinions and jazz...umm, do you realize that this is a public bus and there are tons of people can hear you?! He then proceeds to ask the question, "so how are you?". Oh great dude, lets get into a long conversation and talk about feelings on the bus. He, I might add, is also not talking quietly like you would if you were in the library...he was full blown yelling. I am sure the guy half passed out in the back could repeat his conversation verbatim. Ugh, seriously not in the mood.
To top it off, a woman gets on the bus and proceeds to sit RIGHT next to me when there are a million other seats on the bus. I do not understand why people continuously like to invade my personal space!
BTW...I walked home on 3rd avenue yesterday which will be the route that my new bus will be taking. Do not fear my friends...I can almost guarantee that there will be some brilliant stories that come out of this street:)
