The circus is in town

The bus just keeps getting better and better. Just when I think that someone looks “normal” they turn and I see that they don’t have a hand or they smile and have no teeth. Or they start talking and are the biggest computer nerds ever! Or they start talking about the new version of Finale Fantasy or other rpg games. Nobody appears to be normal on the bus. I realize that saying normal makes me somewhat of a snob. Just see. When you come here and we take the bus together, it’s just a circus. You have one person screaming on their cell phone about their personal life. Another person has their dog sitting on their lap. Another guy will not stop using the F word and talking about his wonderful trip to Japan where he was embarrassed to say he was from America. Yeah, because I am sure they couldn’t tell. Dip wad. Then two guys walk on who are trying to get to the closest bank to cash a check. They smell a scent of booze dribbled over ashtray and I was lucky enough to have 1 sit right next to me. The man was angry because a woman got on the bus that uses a walker. As if anyone with a walker or wheelchair should not be allowed to take the bus. Just when the women seems like a sweet old lady, she starts talking to herself and waving her hands in the air. When the two ashtray scented men get off at their bank a girl looks over and says. “Oh my god, did those guys smell”. Maybe I am not the only sane one on the bus after all.

I promise, I won’t always write about the bus. $50/month is better then spending $3.00/gal and $100/month for parking. I guess it's worth a circus experience every day.

Certainly keeps life interesting!!! Starts your day out with a bang every day! Never a dull moment on the bus...so much more eventful the riding alone in your car every day!
