The World According to Me

Normally I have no problems riding the bus. Not owning a car saves me considerable money and I don’t have to worry about driving or parking. Normally my ride home from work is uneventful. I usually have a seat and use the 25 minutes or so to plan my evening. There are times though that I encouter odd people and odder behavior. Take yesterday, for instance. The woman sitting beside me was extremely fidgety. She was constantly rummaging in her bag for something. She started by finding a comb and doing her hair. Then she found a half a granola bar and had the rest. Then she took a drink of juice. She flipped randomly through an agenda. Most of the time she rummaged for a minute without pulling anything out of her bag. It was very distracting. But then she slipped right over the edge into odd and slightly disgusting. She pulled a toothbrush out of the bottom of her bag and proceded to brush her teeth. Yuck! There had been no cover on the tooth brush, which was in the bag with the half eaten granola bar and all the rest of her junk.
