I was a little early, but the man who sat next to me was running extremely late this morning. He called work to let them know and they wanted to fire questions at him. He was so distraught that he asked if they could just wait until he gets there because he was not mentally there for them.

Continuing with my book, they put this 12-year old girl in a convent and thought she was posessed by the devil and just before locking her up, they cleaned her off because she was covered in her own excrement. I will definitely bring this fact up over dinner with my book club.

I had a debate in my head as I was getting off the train. There was a straight couple saying goodbye as the man went to a stop farther south. They kissed goodbye. I wondered if my boyfriend and I would do that ... we really have not had the opportunity to ride to work together. I could not recall ever seeing two men kiss on the train which is weird since it never phases me seeing it on the street. My over-thinking it sucks that I actually think of such things.
