today i accidentally swipped an expired metrocard, but it let me through. Then i got on a bus, and it said my card had expired two days ago, but it still counted a fare. i got really excited, and imagined that i'd never have to pay for a subway ride again. I told lily about how i had found a magic metrocard, and i was bragging about how it must be worth thousands of dollars. Then, at 2:30 in the morning, i took lily into the subway station to prove the amazingness of my magic metrocard, and it didn't work. i think i am being punished for my hubris. i should have just kept it to myself.
