I decided to start with today because it's the freshest in my mind. I decided to start taking the 28 to the 31 because it's faster than the 47. First, apparently i'm a moron because I swear i thought the bus came at 9:19 which it came at 9:39. Not really sure how I got that. But, oh well. So I hopped on the 28 (which for those of you who don't know is the Blue Ridge bus). I sit down behind this guy and turn my music on full blast. He said good morning and I replied back making sure to stick my headphones back in. Everything was going fine. I absolutely adore my music and was completely lost in my fantasies. (Yes, my music often induces ballroom fantasies with South Carolina. *If you don't know who South Carolina is feel free to ask me*.) Anyway...I saw him turn around out of the corner of my eye but am very good at ignoring people. Over my music I heard him ask what I thought was "you wanna beer?" Very odd question but ask anyone who knows me and they will tell you that I quite frequently hear things that are completely not even close to what they are supposed to be. So...I turn back to my fantasies but he proceeds to tap me on the shoulder. I take out my headphone and turn to look at him. He repeats his question which funny enough I heard correctly. Not only was I correct but he was actually offering me one in his hand. This would be completely inappropriate and slightly awkward if only there had been an actual beer in his clearly empty outstretched hand!!!!!! But HE was convinced there was one!!!! I smiled and said, "oh, no thank-you" and put my music back in my ear! He thankfully exited the bus at the next stop. The 31 was relatively uneventful. More to come, (i'll post my prior adventures soon, but for now I have to go to class. :) until next time....
