Crazy People Can Be Nice Too


this morning on the el, i observed a crazy woman apply eyeliner for about 15 minutes straight. she also seemed to be lapsing in and out of conciousness. i came up with about half a dozen scenarios in my head explaining her odd behavior...drugs, of course, was involved in all of them.

but then, as fate would have it, i immediately felt bad for doing this when at the end of her ride (her stop was 13th street) she tapped me on the shoulder as she exited and kindly pointed out that my purse was open. she then went on to tell me that she was only doing so because she feared i was too vulnerable to potential theives.

aw, thanks crazy eyeliner lady. thanks alot. have a great day.
