I've had an interesting day.

[most_inane_uno]

While I was riding the subway to work this morning, a guy walked up to me and asked to sit down.

I said sure but then he made it clear that he wanted my seat. Being that there were PLENTY of open seats around me, not to mention right next to me, I said no and went back to reading my book.

I was then punched in the face. Really, I wasn't very happy about this.

I got up and tackled him to the ground and pinned him down.

He shouted "Please don't hit me", and I didn't for a couple reasons.

1. I was already running late to work because I couldn't buy my ticket with my debit card because the terminals don't accept them, despite the signs that say they do... so I was riding illegally and I didn't need the extra attention.

2. I was totally shocked by his squeal for mercy and I wasn't really mad at him.

So when the train stopped, the police came and took him away. Apparently the conductor or some one called them. They asked if I wanted to press charges and I said no. So off I went to work.

Now I have a pretty decent shiner.

lol

The 5 mile walk home was a nice little way to end the day.

Got to love a Tuesday.
