Space, the Final Frontier

Today's observations have to do with spacial relations.

1. A lovely lady sat on me this morning on the bus. Yes, on me. She wasn't obese. She wasn't mean. She was just oblivious. She clearly hung over her side of the seat, pressing up against my leg, and at one point even overlapped me. I think she was even tilted so as to lean against me. Good morning.
   
2. Our bus driver was an idiot who seemed to have two gears - fast driving and short stopping. It's a huge bus, it shouldn't be a surprise that it might not fit into that itty-bitty space. Lovely.
3. Umbrellas hurt when they bang into your head. Being a shortie, I am always aware of my umbrella - it's generally check to neck height for the people I'm walking amidst. So, when they approach or I walk by, I raise it up (like Mary Poppins) so that it clears their heads. I get a bit wet, but at least I'm not smacking any one. This morning someone walked past me and must have lowered their enormous umbrella (let's not get started on that subject this morning), and one of the points smacked into the top of my head. Nice.
4. When you walk into an elevator, step to the back. Move out of the freaking way. This is especially true when you're not going to be the first person off the elevator. Because now I have to squeeze past you twice. Once to get past your ass to get on, and another to get off. Thank you so very much.
