New York Subway

Not all subway stations have a way to get from one platform to another.

I didn't know this. Swipe card and discover the platform I'm on doesn't go the right way. Except there is no way to get to the other platform. So, I go back up and cross the street to reach the other platform.

My card gets flashed as "Just Used". Miffed, I go over to the booth.

  • My card says "Just Used". How long before I can use it again?
  • 20 minutes. You should know that.
  • Well I don't. I'm a tourist.
  • Well I don't like the look your face, so I'm gonna get rid of you.

I'm a little taken aback until she points to the end gate where I can go through. Hooray!

Trained Babysitter

I am in New Jersey visiting some friends and their newborn.

The baby has already trained me to pick her up on demand and walk around. She doesn't like me sitting down.

It has taken me all day to finish this entry...
