I dont understand the motivation and thinking of some people.
On the street car this morning, when i got on it was reasonably full. All the seats were taken and it was standing room only. I took up my place across from the first set of doors as the back was already looking pretty crowded and being a bigger person I know its better if i can get something thats not right in the eisle as i take up more room and its harder for people to pass by. Well within a few stops the street car was packed. And boy was it hot. I of course started to sweat.. so much for washing and drying my hair nicely this morning. sigh.
Now for the part that baffles me. When the street car woudl stop at a stop maybe 1 person on the whole car would get off and 10 people on the street would rush the doors in an effort to get on the street car. 2 people got on in the doors across from me and there wasn't enough room for them to get up of the trigger step that opens those doors when you get off. And they woudlnt get off the street car either. We sat at the lights for over 5 minutes cause this women coudlnt' get up off the step and woudlnt jsut get off and wait for the next one.. it wasn't even raining at this point. I just dont get it.
sigh.
so i arrived at work, late, soaked in rain and sweat and generally in a grumpy mood because of it.
sigh.
on a happier note: The woman who is sitting next to me started today and she seems pretty cool so that makes me happy. I was worried that I wouldn't like them but she seems really great so far so that makes me happy.
and i have pre-ordered the new tegan and sara DVD that is being released on August 8th for a really good price.. i just have to wait till mid august to get the thing.
vacation count down: 12 days and counting!!!
