Good Morning!!
Today my experience on the sardine started off quite simple average. Average meaning squished into a regular average sardine can with regular average people. However our average train ride changed as we pulled up to the City Hall Station. Now up till then I was strategically standing in front of a sitting passenger, nice quiet lady matching in brown today this fine Thursday. As the sardine can traveled along its route I did my very best making sure my belongings didn’t smack her in the face…..mov’n along to some Hedley in my ipod and the sway of a quiet cozy ride.
BUT then we all hit City Hall and the rotation of passengers starts some get off while others get on, by usually taking the same position as those before so that a well packed sardine can with no hostility can continue. Well not today this mammoth of a woman got on and decided that she was important enough in this world that proper manors and politeness does not apply to her. Now when I say mammoth I don’t mean fat large..she was large enough at about 5’8 size 12-14ish with all the right stuff…4inch heels, coach bag, lulu bag for her extra’s, long bleach blonde straightened hair, to much make up for her wonderful blue eyes and all the extra trimmings…You know stuff that I should shut up about as I stood there in my own fantastic Red 4” heels , coach purse and perfectly straightened hair ;-) But just because you have spent the time, the money and the therapy to get all that doesn’t’ mean you can be rude!!!
So this mammoth of a gal parks her tall ass back to back with me and allows her butt, bag, and elbows to carve out a larger then needed space in our very quiet peaceful sardine can. But she doesn’t just skim me or hold her breath in as to ensure the comfort of those around her I SWEAR she was trying to ride me for some morning sunshine fun!! So as the train started motion the poor woman sitting in front of me saw me sway, the gentleman beside me also felt the movement of people and stood stiff but what did our mammoth lady do…she pushed her back and bag harder into me and her elbows into other neighbor’s taking on more unavailable air space!!!! There I stood flexed with all my might not to fall on top of my poor sweet sitting woman in brown and ready to kick backwards to find a mammoth foot should she get anymore physical…and please note I am not that frisky or kinking in the morning unless tequila is involved!!!. Instead I being a polite gal in all my bought and paid for accessories opt for hoping she would find more space at the 1st street station…..YES SHE DID again in what tiny little hole of the sardine can I was standing in HONEST I really thought I was going to become her personal little person for the day!!
:-)
The great news is after being stood on for two stops she was off at the 4th and I could once again ensure that I wasn’t gong to end up in the lap of my sitting lady in brown or stamped with a brand name and carried around all day.
Good Morning everyone!! If it is at all possible could you please make sure you are polite to the world no matter how much you have worked for your imagine!!
Love ya!!
:-)
