or supposing or imposing.  hmmm- interesting concepts.

One thing that one can not help but experience (unless s/he has teh ipod on and zones out) is the humanity and lives that we live as we take public transportation.  Who can be bored while observing others?  Not me.  This morning, a fellow in front of me had lyrics to a song in some European (I believe) non-English language that he was seemingly memorizing, along with a binder full of stanzas he had pencilled in.  He was concentrating and I didn't want to appear so nosy, so I didn't ask what language it was or other details.  I did notice that it was for a class, based on what I observed when he put it in his briefcase (that, and that he seems to work for the national government, which isn't surprising in this area).  With that said, anything one does in public really is public domain.  Please don't get offended when someone joins or responds to a conversation you're having on your cell phone, for example.

On another note, I think that I need less sleep than I'd been getting.  I say this only 'cause I slept ~ 7 hours last night (up at 5:30) and feel great!  Now it could be 'cause I'm happy or 'cause I saw an episode of Pushing Daisies or 'cause there's some sugary caffeine in me- I dunno.  It just reminded me that 6-7 hours used to be the norm for me.

Regardless, yesterday's post is one of those things I just set aside to pick up when I'm inspired later & now it's back to work!
