i have a love hate relationship with CTA


i really despise public transportation, but thoroughly enjoy people watching. Of course the best place to people watch is on a bus or train. The Chicago Transportation Authority really needs to make my people watching more enjoyable. Frequently i get on the bus and it smells like vomit or dead animals—i know bums need a ride too but can we fabreeze them first if they aren't going to bathe?

i appreciate the crazies and loud baby mamas when they are not sitting next to me. You see some really interesting people on CTA. sometimes you run into someone normal who will talk to you bout how crazy everyone else is—that's always fun.
If i could i would ride the L all day and take pictures of the lovely/crazy/ghetto/ignorant people i meet.
camera phones are my best friends

i was on the train today and happy with my ride. i really love seeing polite people, they are wonderful. On the L people were practically tripping over themselves to get lil kids and elderly people a seat. Of course i was sitting next to the rude girl with her legs all in the walk way.

i wanted to smack her in the leg and tell her to stop being triflin. Old ladies shouldn't have to step over her tacky boots just to sit down.

Karmas a bitch, that girl is probably going to trip getting off the train.

-girl whose my mama would have never let her stretch out on the train like its a living room
