morning commute
Jul. 23rd, 2007 09:55 amguy on the bus on 15th this morning is panicking. he needs to get to 14th W and Howe. bus driver has no clue. consortium of bus riders check out his printed out trip plan, recognize his stop, pull for it, and give him instructions on which way he needs to go on foot from there. this spurs a discussion of how bus riders in Seattle know their routes inside out and are quite helpful. (also about the street grid, since we almost sent him on a wild goose chase into Magnolia.)
the stop before mine, the bus is about to pull away, and a man in the shelter lets out an auctioneer bellow - "someone's coming!" bus driver waits, long moments pass, and a young woman comes pelting down the sidewalk. the dude in the shelter must have seen her start running from blocks away.
i lost count of the people carrying or reading Harry Potter.
someone stuck a sign that says "Buffering..." on the Real building.
i love this town.
