Yesterday was like any other day at work, busy. Working in the investment industry right now has me on my toes. So, by the end of the day, I was ready to take my normal subway ride, about 25 minutes, home. Well, I got on and after zoning out on my iPod Touch for about 15 minutes, I realized that we hadn't left the station yet. I've been riding the subway a long time, so it didn't take me long to realize that this was going to be a long trip home. There is only one reason they hold a train at the stop - when it's going out of service. Well, as it turns out, the line between me and home was totally out. The train did manage to get me a few stops closer before dumping us all off. Their backup plan is to run shuttle buses, but, as most of you know, one shuttle /= one train. The end result was me walking about 7.5km home in my yet-to-be broken in dress shoes. The whole way home, I couldn't feel them at all. I guess that is a good thing.
Few things I saw/noticed along the way:
-100 people actually think they will fit on an already packed bus.
-I saw a guy dressed up as a Tim Horton's coffee cup (no camera in my phone, sorry)
-People move faster than traffic in rush hour.
-I'm so not gellin'
