keep on rockin' me, baby
I've expended most of my options and I'm only 1.5 blocks into my day. This may be painful. So, to keep from going crazy while waiting for e-mails that allow me to *do work*, I'm continuing on my 'list'.
bird: On "my" "L" station, Dempster St., there is a pigeon that has been dead and laying in between the two tracks for as long as I've been riding the train this summer, slightly over a month. When I get around to buying a digital camera, I'll take a picture of it, as some kind of sad sad truth. I assume I have the time to get a camera since the bird has been there for a month (that i know of), and if the city was going to dispose of it, I"m sure they would have done so already.
woman on train: The day I devised this list, there was a woman sitting on the train behind me. She was maybe in her mid-50s, small, and had a book open in front of her. I, as I do every day, had my headphones on, but even so I could hear her mumbling. Because of the headphones, I could not tell whether or not she was speaking English. I'm sure she was reading aloud from whatever book this was. Even though it is more probable that it was some trashy romance novel, I'd like to believe it was holy scriptures of some sort and that she was praying. No one ever talks on the train. It's usually a very self-conscious ride, and I was refreshed by the variety.
