bus rides.

There's something about riding the bus in the early morning that makes me introspective and wistful and nostalgic. Listening to Sun Kil Moon (the guy from Red House Painters) only makes matters worse. There was a guy on the bus today who looked exactly like Jeff Tweedy from Wilco. Now, never in my life have I found Jeff Tweedy attractive, but his doppelgänger was really growing on me. I think meeting someone on the bus would be kind of cute. As long as they're not homeless. Not that I'm discriminating! My friend met her former boyfriend on a plane ride to Portland. Granted, they broke up after a couple years, but it doesn't get any more romantical than randomly sitting next to someone on a plane and five hours later...kabloom! When I fly, I always end up sitting next to young moms with drooling, sticky-faced babies or alcoholic, red-faced business men getting back from "golf trips."
