ha! woo! as I was a block away from the station I saw the train pulling into manasquan.
thoughts of the vagina yell-phone woman flashed in my head and I knew I could not sit on the riff-raff train today...
I sped across the intersection and floored it past the police station... I could hear the brakes of the train intermingled with the squeal of my tires as I turned left and frantically found a parking spot.
parking brake. turn off ignition. lock door.... RUN!!!!!
I ran. leaping over the cement doohickies in the parking lot. flying over the curb and the gravel that the new station will be built on... dodging bicycles that were in my way... I saw a conductor about to get on the train and I flashed him a "you'd better not let this train move an inch without me because I will run after it and hunt you down just watch me" smile...
and here I am... on the 3rd car of the last train before the riff-raff... my breathing has normalized (from walking in the city a lot i've been breathing better. go figure) the conductor checking my ticket said "we wouldn't have left you" and then commented about that being my morning workout. ha.
I think people could see me from a mile up the road sprinting in my pepto coat... if anyone sees a chick in a pink coat with a (faux) fur collar on the 7:20am out of 'squan... feel free to say "gigglechick? is dat you?"
okay. grabbed an extra set of earplugs today and will now pop 'em in.
I caught the train. it's a good day :)
