There was also a guy STARING at me. I wasn't sure if he was, because of course I was staring straight ahead like you're supposed to, but finally I turned my head and stared him down until he looked away. But then he did it again! ::shudder:: It wasn't like I was in his line of sight -- he had to turn his head to look at me. Then we got off at the same stop, but luckily, we went into the subway while I waited for another bus (which was a mistake, but that's another story).

I heard a huge conflict between two guys on the subway this weekend. One guy gave me and Noah his seat and moved to sit next to an older black guy. The black guy confronted him and asked him why he moved and the young white guy said, "Because you're handsome." It escalated from there but the white guy was just really insistent that he would sit where he wanted and didn't need to justify it.

uncomfortable to observe.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ack. If some guy said he sat next to me because I was pretty I'd be realising all sorts of reasons to be elsewhere.

"Why did you move to sit by me?"
"Because you're less creepy than the guy following me."

Yup. And yet, that's unlikely ever to happen to me again: going grey has pretty much made me invisible.

At least it's nice out. I wonder how long it would've taken to walk the 8 miles home.

I managed to get on a 145 before it got packed, and then got out and walked the last few miles to my apartment rather than going to the gym.

ita, it wasn't said in any genuine tone. It was more like, "shut up and let me just sit here or I will embarrass you."

Hey do we mention not having any more spoons because of the Spoon Theory?

Because books.

I thought so, Kat.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yes, we do.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am right behind you. I am at 97%

Whoo!
