Fact: this blog is one zany family member and two weird medical maladies away from being exclusively about public transportation.

For instance, possible ideas for my next post included, "Why is it OK to drink conspicuously on Metro North (like they have a drink car) but it's against the law to drink even inconspicuously on the subway?" and "I feel simultaneously more sympathetic to and more annoyed by homeless people with dogs, because on one hand there's a cute dog that's probably not hooked on heroin that's hungry too and on the other hand, I don't get to have a dog because I don't have the space or the means to care for one, why did you think it was a good idea?"

But maybe this would actually be a good turn of events. Lots of popular blogs have themes (even that inexplicably popular blog about TD that appeals to maybe 300 people at most, if you assume everyone in TD enjoys reading blogs or that there are sufficient numbers of interested alumni to compensate) and considering I spend most of the day in an environment I can't blog about (and which, were it the subject of a blog, might not appeal to too many people given that most of the little dramas are very little and of the "you had to be there" sort) or in bed, public transit really is the source of most excitement in my life.

So in the near future, maybe you can look forward to a post about how public transport is a hard place to exist if you were raised to respect the opinions of others and cower when yelled at.
