Sam's Blog

It's been a long time...

...since I blogged.

So...quickly...I'm on the bus today sitting in my normal spot which is right where the front and the back meet. They call it the accordian because it's where the buses flex to make turns. The seats in the accordian are more like double chairs that are bolted to the floor. They face inward. Today, a rather large woman sits next to me. At first, I'm thinking great another uncomfortable ride. Luckily, she kept mostly to her side (not sure how she did - she was very big).
Then, when we got to Seattle, we make a right turn. My feet leave the floor. I think this woman's weight actually pulled the front bolts out. I leaned forward to balance the weight - a weak attempt anyway. She sat there as if nothing was wrong. Luckily, I made it to my bus stop without incident (we only had one more right turn and the bus was moving slower so the force wasn't as strong). I'll be keeping my eye out for that lady though....
