Pictures From My Commute

I know I said I wasn’t going to post again until Monday, but my friend Lex wrote to me in an email and said maybe I could take a few pictures from my commute and who am I to turn down a request? Here’s a few photos of my commute yesterday, not too exciting, but, it’s better than nothing. I think.

Hi asshole! I say this to myself about 10,584 times before my train arrives.

This is the screen I obsessively stare at, waiting to see which track my train will arrive at.

And this is the crowd I have to push through to get to the train. Paul McCartney was right.

Hey...what's this?

Aaaahhh!

Enjoy life wherever you go and whatever you do, don't let the assholes get the better of you cause they're all out there trying to wear you down. Shrug and say, "Screw them!" Life is more important than to be tied up with their constant stupidities. Believe me I came out of it, with all sorts of klutzy jobs and you can too. We all have to do it but try not to lose your humanity but I already have seen that you're one hell of a person. I'm proud I know you, keep it up baby. You're working towards your goal, just a few steps more ;)

I spend 90 minutes, each way, commuting to work .... 3 hours a day .... been doing it for over 10 years ......... you get used to it ....... better than having no money !

@csp: Ha ha ha, loved the CBBM quote, who knew he could talk?

@Al: It's not a burger and you will be able to see it at tomorrow's post. And I also just use the phone for a phone!

@Jaws: Great video! Thanks for the link!

@Mykola Mick Dementiuk: Thanks for the kind words, my friend!

@GENE: I hear you, I"m just taking life one drink at a time!

How long is the train ride, & how much it cost? Can you eat & drink on train?
Is that a Wombacher Burger on the Menu , sounds Good & they should only have it on Saturday Nights.

@Jason: It's a short ride, but then I have to wait for the shuttle to work, so all in all it's about 45 minutes. You can eat on the train, I'm not sure about drinking beer and I'll post a picture of the sandwich tomorrow.

I 100% echo what Mykola Mick Dementiuk said.

@Shawn: Thanks for the good thoughts, my friend!

@BR: I never noticed that, sounds like good memories!

@DrBOP: It's not a boiger, but a delicious sandwich, you'll see in today's post, which will probably be up around 3PM, I'm running late after sleeping in.
