on the wrong side.

i woke up in the shittiest mood today. i snoozed a good 5 times (45 minutes!), and so didn't have time to shower this morning. yeah, call me gross. i was half an hour late to work, so i barely made it in before my boss. i've been dropping and spilling things all day. and, of course, since i'm going home tomorrow and won't be here for a week, i have to clear my desk, which is always stressful. especially when people insist on giving you stuff that has to be done. right. now.

i did, however, get a seat on the train this morning. for most of my ride i found myself fixated on a woman standing in front of me. i guess i needed something to dwell on and hate, and boy did i hate her. she was leaning against the pole. why would you do that? the pole is for everyone's hands, not your back you lazy bum! her back was to the door and she was facing the center of the car, taking up about 2/3 of the middle of the car width-wise. of course, it gets crowded by the doors, so generally the polite thing to do is either step into the middle of the car or make space for people to walk by you, so they're not jammed like cattle into 2 square feet of space by the door. of course, she had no idea how much space she and her enormous shoulder bag were taking up, and when a guy brushed past her he sent her bag falling off her shoulder. she gave him a pretty snarky "sorry." also! she was eating some muffin, and chewing with her mouth open. consistently. making noise. gross. i wanted her to melt into a puddle on the floor so i didn't have to hate her so much.

just imagine: if i didn't have a blog, you would never have known that! doesn't it give you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside? come on. gimme a hug.

so, going home tomorrow, back next tuesday (8/17). will probably post once or twice from home, to give bored people something to do. i have no idea how many people read this anyway. maybe it's better that way.
