The Bus

Here's a funny/wacky story from my trip to Philadelphia. Marin rented a car while I was there since Micheal wrecked the car (that's not the funny part.) So when we went to return it we rode the bus home. We got on a bus with about 6 poeple already on it and it wasn't long until we realized that we were the newbies on the bus. Everyone on the bus knew each other from riding every day. At one stop the girl across from me looked at the woman getting on and said "uh oh, she's drunk." A women then stumbled onto the bus clearly plastered (not funny, kinda sad) and asked someone how much the bus cost. Someone told her $2. She then started calling to the people at the people at the very back of the bus. "Can you lend me a dollar?" The bus driver repeatedly told her not to worry about it but she insited that she was going to get him that dollar. Then she did what I suspect he saw coming, she stood up and tried to walk to the back of the bus to find a dollar. (This is the funny part, to me anyway) That is when she lost her balance and sat on poor little Marin. HA! Marin got sat on by a drunk lady on the bus! HAHAHAHA! Poor Marin. Poor drunk lady who then slumped over next to Marin started crying. I would cry if I were her too ) :

Don't worry, Marin is used to people sitting on her. I do it all the time. Blake and I dog-pile marin all the time. It was great having you at our house. Sorry I'm such a loose and just play video games all the time! Come back soon!

Poor Marin! That's pretty funny though! I'm definitely grateful that I have a car. At least I can avoid some of the weirdos that use public transportation.
