So I have been riding the "L" this week and boy has it changed. I will say the last time I rode the train for more than a week period had to have been at least 8-10 years ago.
Did you know they have a Dunkin Donuts at the Davis Street station? It's kind of disgusting actually. All I could think of was smelly urine, sorry the smell of fresh brewed coffee had not hit my big nose that morning. I mean the Dunkin Donuts could be a great place to catch something on the go, but at the L? I cant seem to add the two together. It's only logical that they would go together but they cant sell to this baby. Ok, maybe if I was really really hungry and I was in a hurry.
On the Brown line on Kedzie there is a guy who gives you the Red eye for free. Yes I know they are free to begin with but he actually stands there and gives them to you. You don't have to open a newspaper box and get it yourself. I like that.
When I decided to take the train to work for a week I thought I was going to be able to finish my book Playing with Boys but nooooo I have been to distracted by everything new along the Brown line, Red line and Purple line.
I have come to the conclusion that I should take the train more often to change the routine a little. I should sacrifice (is sacrifice the right word?) my personal space (my car) for a day or two a week for a crowded CTA train.
Sorry I'm not used to this. I have also found that I get motion sickness on the train. I swear I grew up in the city have lived here all my life. I not a whinnying suburbanite, but I might just act like one on this post.
