curiouser and curiouser
i had quite an interesting commute...i run out of my apt building and on my walk to the subway i see a row of men sitting on the curb (maybe 4 or 5 of them) playing with their bananas. i'm not being dirty, they each had a banana and the were playing catch with them. of course, i giggled like a little schoolgirl at the thought of it.
then i get into the subway at canal and i see a crowd of people standing much closer to the tracks than the wall, yet they're all looking back towards the wall. i get closer and they're actually looking at this guy who was walking towards the front of the platform. lo and behold, behind this guy was a small-dog-sized rat. i'm not talking maltese/yorkie, i'm talking westie/beagle. it was just walking along, in no apparent hurry to get anywhere, and honestly i wouldn't have been surprised if it was carrying a newspaper and a briefcase. the train came before i could dig through the abyss that is my workbag to get out my cameraphone (honestly, i'm completely useless).
so then i get out at times square and i see three crimes of fashion in a line walking up the stairs. one: a girl with a pretty cropped green blazer, chunky coral jewelry, gold ankle wrap sandals, and white pleat front single cuffed long shorts with capri length black leggings underneath. why the leggings? the outfit was perfect sans leggings? and if you must wear the leggings for some orthopedic reason then don't wear shorts over them! ok, two: messy ponytail, gold aviators, tastefully embellished sheerish breezy white tunic top with a three sizes too large denim trumpet flared skirt. she looked like the clothes were attacking her otherwise trendy self. and last but certainly not least, three: really cute red woven open-toed wedges and camo cropped pants cinched at the knee held up by a pink studded belt with (get this) plaid boxer shorts underneath. she was sagging the pants so that about 3 inches of plaid boxers were showing. what the hell? it's like she somehow switched torsos with a skater circa 1995. needless to say, i was appalled. danny-g, you would have been too.
and how.
