August 11, 2014 9am - This is my first adventure in to blogging. I do not have any where near the talent for writing that my sister or my best friend do, but somethings just need to be shared. Regarding this post, mom, dad, if you read this - I apologize now for some of the language displayed. Love you.
So the Silver Line opened on July 26, but I had scheduled vacation for the next 2 weeks or so... So my first ride to work on the long awaited Silver Line of the Metro had to wait. I was so excited not to have to drive and brave the craziness of the toll road and 66 and Rosslyn. Well crazy drivers were avoided, but crazies were not.
It was a great ride, relatively quiet, I had a seat, I read my kindle, and I wasn't sandwiched in like a fat sardine... there really wasn't anything else I could have asked for to make the ride better. Ok maybe a good glass of red wine, but I was on my way to work. Then I exited the Rosslyn station. A very nice gentleman (read: very angry and upset man) was yelling about.......pussy. And he was yelling it without regard for who was listening. He described its quite a few aspects of it, from its smell, angry that "no female washes they ass" and that's why it smells to the "bitches" that have pussies. And not just the about females near him, but "all pussy". Throughout all of this ranting, he threw in multiple fuck this, fuck that, shitty this, etc. etc.
I wish I had gotten it on video because I'm not doing it justice and it made me think "omg - just keep walking" and I'm not surprised or offended by much of anything. This guy was quite adamant about everything he was saying and I'm just glad he didn't continue in my direction.
The Return Trip - Walking out of my building there are usually a couple of cabs lined up. Today there was one and some guy leaning in to talk with the driver. Unfortunately, his jeans did not get the memo that they needed to stay above the crack of his ass. Nothing like walking out of work and seeing half of some dude's rear end, especially since it was not a particularly nice one.
Now - where is my wine??
