does anybody ever notice what kind of seats buses have? i don’t. but today i really really did.
the bus i ride in everyday has several types of seat covers. the new kind has pseudo-leather seats that must be made of some material that repels dust. it is so repellant, in fact, that a person can fall from his seat if the bus is too fast and makes an abrupt turn. like i almost did this morning.
in fact, the rollercoaster ride i was on this morning only highlighted how much the bus seats contribute to a person’s physical and mental well-being.
because i was at the aisle spot of a three-seater and there was no handrail (which may or may not be a lucky strike) i had to plant my right leg firmly in front of me to keep from slipping. i couldn’t nap at all because of the concentration required of me, in addition to tiring my poor fat leg before it was due for a workout. my back probably winced at the awful posture i subjected it to. and my arms ached from the effort of holding onto the front handle.
at which point i finally decided to chronicle my daily battles with public transportation.
the end.
