And now I'm reading Raymond Chandler, so:
The train platform is emptier when you're late to work, and you meet a better class of people. People who can roll into work at 11am look healthier, happier, and richer. The earlybirds on the 8am train are packed in like pencils in a blind man's cup, and it's a good thing because they couldn't stand erect without each other's downtrodden bodies to keep from falling down. My train pulls in nice and easy, and even the motorman looks like he ate a canary. Nice day, isn't it? Pleased to meetcha. Don't mind if I do. I get a seat with empties on either side, enough room for me to do my odalisque impression, but I'm not feeling quite that daffy. I just stick out my legs to let the melting slush drain off my boots into the creek of filth that runs down the middle of the car. This dame gets on at Jay Street wearing a parka that's trying to look dirty but can't quite keep a stright face about it, and besides she's walking like a supermodel in sneakers that cost more than the life of the man who made them. Every dame on the F train is a supermodel. Me? I work for a living. Well, that's not exactly true. But I do sit a desk with lots of work in front of me for a living. I've got a pile of papers that want attention, but I have a system where I put the newest, most important documents on the top of the pile, and the deeper they get, the more I forget what I'm supposed to do with them. Every day I take something from the bottom of the stack, stare at it with a serious look on my face for about five minutes, go to the fire staircase and have a cigarette, come back and throw out the piece of paper, and then fuck around on the internet for and hour or two. Then it's time for lunch. 8 comments |

MY IMAGINARY GIRLFRIENDS Chan Marshall Rotem of the IDF Eleanor Friedberger Amy Goodman Bernardine Dohrn ('69) Maya Rudolph Joanna Newsom Imogen Heap Caroline Dhavernas Shana Rae Ray DISALLOWED FOREVER "I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!" - "from whence" - "...the exception that proves the rule" - any use of the question "spit or swallow?" - the phrase "drop trou" - fake-o reviewer verbs: "penned" for wrote "helmed" for directed "lensed" for whatever - "expat" - the euphemism "passed away" - pronouncing merci beaucoup as "mercy buckets!" (see also: "grassy-ass!") PET PEEVES "confinscated" - trying children "as adults" - "drownded" - misuse of reflexive pronouns, as when someone says "Please talk to Bob or myself." Come on people now.
